My Foxwell NT510 Elite has both BMW and General Motors programming downloaded on it. I have used the ABS autobleed function on a 2008 Cobalt, but not on the X5 (I haven't even looked for it there). The ABS autobleed function was found in the GM-specific special functions, so I assume it would be the same for the BMW.

I've never had to manually enter my VIN for the X5, nor for my four GM vehicles, so I haven't had that problem.

Two months ago, while fiddling with multiple OBD cables/switches to hookup the Foxwell and my OBDLink LX bluetooth dongle (for Android diagnostic apps) at the same time (only one would been activated at any time, so I could leave both always connected inside the X5...the LX dongle goes into a sleep mode), I let my battery drain too low, and the Foxwell didn't function too well.

I sometimes switched from Foxwell to Android app before either was ready, or tried to back out of a Foxwell function before it was ready, and it would lock-up on me. And, after that happened, I couldn't start the engine until the battery was above 12.5? v, and I learned that I should always use my Foxwell with a steady voltage supply, and never interrupt it while it was hesitating.

I normally maintain my X5 battery everyday 24/7/365 with a Battery Tender 1.25amp unit, but I'll be using my Schumacher XCS15 smart charger while testing from now on. I can use it on 2/10/15 amp settings (whatever it needs), so my future long-duration testing sessions will get enough power,
