Hi all
have a odd fault causes EML light and Limp mode
Have normal code reader and also Ebay copy of Delphi
Is there a software out there that will mimic dealer level so i can try and find this fault so far nothing is stored in engine ECU only Faults in ABS ECU
thanks

 

There is a Romanian guy selling a usb-odb2 cable with a pirated copy of dealer software....
Check eBay...his name changes a bit, but a few folks have bought from him ok.

 

Thanks have found some see how it works

 

Another user just posted a link...let me see if I can find it again...and I post below

 

Here it is...good luck

 

Holy cow, will that do the customizable stuff like daytime running lights and such?

Dir it says so in the post. My bad.

 

Advocating purchasing pirated software. Really?

 

Sometimes it one of the only ways....
If BMW sold it...this site has an advertisement for pirated BMW have maps...
We have brought it up...but they use a loop hole...say they sell an activation code...which activates a bootleg Map...lol

 

Thanks i found something similar should arrive next couple of days

 

Schwaben tool will read all of it and give you MINI level codes that are stored.

the software i got is the same
BUT with no help to install so you need to be a NASA scientist with a MYT degree that's not me sending it back and have now found the Rumanian guy

 

I prefer AutoEnginuity software myself. Fully supported, not bootleg, about $400 between the proline connector and the BMW-specific extensions. Does a lot. Will reset adaptations, reads freeze-frame data stored with codes, shows live sensor data. You can not use it to code options like lights though.

But they don't offer every feature like coding keys. And my local dealers are soulless rascals who charge 20-40% over list for parts, so I stopped going there, which leaves me looking to eBay for the not-sold-to-owners- proprietary software needed to keep my bought-and-paid-for car functioning.

 

Thanks
sort of on the trail now managed to get a code P1570 doesnt really give you much of a clue when you look it up
infact makes you feel more irritated its like help no help from the code feel like im going round in circles

 

can u see any stored codes ?

 

Well....my goto list doesn't have a 1570 And tools are just that..tools...not a instruction book or how to guide...
They help you diagnose stuff...
Then you must use knowledge to determine the issue....rarely is it one to one relationship codes to parts to fix stuff, as the issue can be upstream or downstream of the sensor.
