Best Scanner/Code Reseting Tool for '05 X5 3.0i?

On my '01 X5 I have been using a Creator C310+ that I bought many years ago. It's awkward to use but seems to do most of the things I need. However, I just picked up a new-to-me '05 X5 and the Creator won't communicate with some of the modules and there are also fault codes it won't clear. I have no idea why the difference. I also have a BlueDriver, but that only reads basic engine codes on these cars.

I want a code reader I can trust and to get rid of some obsolete warnings (it would be great to be able to program my key functions too, but that would be gravy). I'm looking at the Foxwell NT510 Elite (which seems to be the same as the Schwaben scanner) and I'm aware of ISTA and K+D-CAN software, but that seems to be a bit complicated for my uses.

Can anyone share experience or knowledge on this?

Thanks.
