E70 manual help

Rheingold is an electronic system with service procedures. I believe it is what the dealer shops use. It runs on a PC. VMware is virtualization software. You don't need it to run the system.

thanks for E70 manuals help

Hi guys,
Thanks for the responses. I will look into both. In regard to Rheingold, that leads me to tuning questions. Do you use the system to tune your BMW? Or just for service codes and repair?

This is random and unreproducible, unfortunately. I'll try starting with the driver's door, since it is the most used. Is it possible to upgrade hardware to newer or improved?
