The E39 and other similar chassis are Kbus and not DCAN. So this is probably why the cable does not work with the E70. Also not sure if Carly is smart/flexible enough if you actually had a USB DCAN cable to work with USB on the newer vehicles??

Doh! That's exactly it and I knew that. Thanks for the reminder. I thought someone in this thread used a DCAN cable in lieu of the Gen 2 Bluetooth adapter to program the iDrive options.

n00b question regarding OBD adapters, is Carly the best one for BMWs? Has anyone here had any experience with Automatic adapters? (https://www.automatic.com

Never had one before but been wanting to recode my LKM to have only the halos turn on (not the side indicators) when turning on the park lights.
