Have been through numerous threads, forums & FB groups but
Over a year ago, bought an Ebay OBD2-USB cable with links to BMW Tools E-Z Install package, ISTA, etc. Never got it to communicate with vehicle despite three complete, from-scratch installations & all the config/ini/com port shenanigans. Could be a bad cable...
Go the Schwabben Foxwell tool on special & has sufficed for most of my BMW/Mini needs, but I still need more serious diagnostics & coding ability.
ProTool was my next thought, but without support for E39, E53 & R53 would still be lacking needed capability.
Got a link on bimmerpost for a guy selling preconfigured VM, but can't get forum email validation to work, so can't request it.
What's the German word for exasperated?
