Finally got my INPA, EDIABAS, NCS, etc., to work properly. Basically the std E70.ENG is missing some lines to make INPA look for the correct Daten files which start with DDE73kwp.xxx. I used the E70.ENG file from my desktop set-up. The DDE73kwp.xxx are in the SP-Daten-files on the NZ site.

After that I installed one version of ISTA-+ but it made everything else unstable and did not ID the car, so back to the drawing board on that.

Now that I can see the fault codes for the engine with INPA, I confirm that my glow plug module is unresponsive as the guys who cleaned my DPF said.... I looked up a U-tube video and realized that a) it will be a major-league greasy operation to get in there and replace it, and b) I should probably replace the glow plugs while in there and remove the swirl-flaps....


I think I will order everything and then get to it late-September as I first have some travel to complete.
