I did not buy the ODBII reader from BMWhat but rather bought a Wifi reader with an ELM327 chip and that chip is the key to compatibility with many software packages.

I can substantiate from first person experience everything that's been said about a WP failure. You WILL overheat and be stranded on the side of the road waiting for a flatbed to take your car to someone who can repair it. The experience ruined an otherwise nice visit to my son.
