If you have a laptop, a 20 dollar k+dcan cable works well with rheingold. OBDII 16pin Interface To USB Diagnostic Coding Cable For BMW INPA EDIABAS K+DCAN | eBay
Rheingold is here: CarTechnoloGY
You don't need sdp (f series cars) or ista/p (programming/flashes modules/ecu)

Oh oops, rgold didn't make me think of that.
What kind of cable are you using, if the pcb inside isn't green you may have issues. My friend had a nice dcan cable that refused to work with my e70

Ill check the pcb but it was a new one from ebay im pretty sure its one like the link you sent but even while doing the backpressure test it would say communication lost and id have to just hit ok and it would continue to read the values

Inside your VM, go to device manager. Find the com port for the usb dcan. Right Click properties. Inside port settings, click advanced.
In that page, set the latency timer to 1. That can cause issues.

Also VMs can be flaky. What is your host OS? It's not a big issue even on my win 10 x64 laptop to use rheingold directly.

PM me if you have technical questions, in a past life I was in IT.

Also check if pins 7 and 8 are soldered together. I recently got a cable off eBay and had a lot of trouble getting it to work. I found online somewhere that most of the cables come with pin 7 and 8 soldered together. I de-soldered it and added a switch. Now it works perfectly on my 35d.

You were right again, latency timer was off in the VM i plan on finding rheingold to use directly soon as this laptops sole purpose is to diag and maybe code, it was actually pretty nice to use it functionally. I got the following actual codes
003ff0-air mass measurement
00429a-dde boost pressure control
00452a- particulate filter
004674-4674 fuel injection rate
004779-low pressure exhaust recirc controller
00478f-low pressure exhaust recirc valve
0047c9-low pressure echaust recirc control
004d2d-message emf
0054c6-oil wear
006de6-sporatic emf fault
006f4e-no message


Ran through the diagnostic steps of each to see if i could find my smoking gun
Did get a closing behavior of swirl flaps not ok which may have been me answering wrong on the yes or no

I would clear the codes and see which ones come back.
We don't know if these codes are from the original dpf clogging...
