I had an Actron which I used in comparison to my PEAKE while troubles shooting difficult starting. The PEAKE actually pulled codes the Actron didn't. BMW's software is very proprietary. You can read the basic codes with the Actron; however, if your planning on spending the money. . .spend it only once.

Standard, no conection to this company. Actually I'm a little pissed at PEAKE. My reader is an older version than what's available now and does not read codes after 2003 models (even though I purchased it in 2006). They say it can't be upgraded, even if I send it back. So it doesn't do much for my 2006
