Thanks, glad to know that's a possibility. I gave up and put the old tank back in (it would fit for some reason) and I haven't had time to get back at it. In the meantime I've added an upper hose, aux. pump and a T-stat to the list of to-do's for my cooling system. After that's done I want to use my new software and turn that useless "temp gauge" into something that actually tells me some useful information...:thumbup::thumbup:

Cal, remind me what cable(s) you bought for the laptop. The temp gauge buffer mod is done with BMW Scanner 1.4 but your pass to flash halogens with bixenon high beams is BMW Tools. Both are different software tools that take different cables. You need the K+D CAN cable for BMW Tools and the BWW Scanner 1.4 takes its own cable. Just making sure you got both coming...

Thanks for watching out for me Overboost, as you can see, when it comes to this software, I'm lost. Below are links to what I have bought so far. I suspect I will need some more though....

Get this one coming for BMW Scanner 1.4

Go on fleaBay or Amazon and search PA Soft 1.4 and/or BMW Scanner 1.4. Again look for a US seller.

Both of those are correct. I would go with the fleaBay one as the Amazon seller had some poor feedback. There are some cheap Chinese units that don't work out there, just get from a known seller that has sold them in the past.

Or, just road trip that baby down here to the lake and we'll have a code fest... :thumbup:

OK Thanks! I'll ask Santa!

Seriously, thank you for the support. I hope I don't have to bother you as much when the stuff gets here.
