I just came recent to this accessory BMW offers for their range of cars.

Together with an OBD dongle and the free BMW App this is plug and play option which runs perfectly.

MINI cars are not in the BMW car pool, however BMW also only adopted this System from DriveDeck, where you can buy also universal version.

Here it is used in a cooper S ( choosing the 220i B48 189)

A smart analysis tool with a hell of informations plus a wonderful video capture function with engine overlays.

 

Hopefully MINI will have one in the future.

 

I don't know,but this BMW offer is actually older, however its works perfect, and shows you what a real connected smartphone can do.

I think the community comes up with better solutions before MINI makes a new Skin for that app.

 

Are you using the BMW dongle ?

 

Yes Iam using it, not yet tried if the dongle serial no. works on the DriveDeck App, which however could be useful, to input correct data. What counts is the recording of sensors, the video capture and track analysis, brake points etc.

 

here a picture of recording intercooler performance.
