Did it ever communicate with the car? I had him remote while connected to the car to verify all was well. He will remote in until it works.

It has never connected to the car. He got it all installed remotely, then that was it. When he tried to use it on the car it wouldn't connect to the car.

If he does not have the firewall disconnected and is unsure which USB port was configured he needs to have him remote while attached to the car and get it running both in INPA and GT1. I had the same thing happen.

Cool, I will throw that suggestion out if the others don't work.

Need new Key for ISTA??

Reviving this thread, I got the Romanian software some time back and didn't use it for a good while as my car is running fine.

However, this morning a CEL popped up and I booted up the INPA, reset the light (DPF warning).

However, the ISTA is refusing to boot stating the key has expired. Is this normal? Anyone resolved this issue with the seller or has this been superseded? I see software now for windows10, anyone made the switch?

I used my software and cable (Romanian) a few days back with no issues. Ive scanned dozens of BMW's with it, and its always worked perfectly, although initially I had to get the Romanian guy to help me install everything remotely, once he did, it worked perfect!
as others stated, you have to turn off your antivirus and firewall, and make sure your battery (computer AND car battery) are charged up fully! I usually put my X5 on the battery charger while I work on the computer.

thinking of changing to a Foxwell NT-510 in the near future though.
since most of my laptops are mac, and my Microsoft based stuff is all windows 10.

Does anyone know if the Romanian seller is still on Ebay? I would like to get a new cable and software for my laptop now that my e70 is on the way across the atlantic.

No, he's deleted his listing completely. Bit of a shame because I think the entire suite rocks and would happily recommend it to others.

I had an issue with dropping my laptop (well I actually tripped over the power cord and sent it flying) as I had it connected on a stand outside of the car and was worried about getting a new code when I reinstalled the software to another laptop.

After getting no response to messages on Ebay I just sent the install code per the original setup method and he responded straight away with the code to activate it but otherwise he won't respond to messages.
