Definitely not. Your car uses D-can, which this cable does NOT support.

Directly from their description:

Quote:
Important: This will work for BMW cars from 1991 to 2006/2007. This will not work on cars built frm 03/2007 and newer cars (from when BMW started using D-can for OBD communication)
I'd be wary anyway of this seller as their description also states to buy with confidence as they have 3300+ Positive rating, yet their user ID shows only 659 with a 98.6% rating.

Plus the fact that they are selling you a ton of proprietary BMW software for $40??? shitload of copyright voilation going on there - it's one thing to post links to free software downloads, quite another to actually sell pirated software.

Here is link (yet again) to the forum tested/approved appropriate cable:

He does accept lower offers. You can 'cheap out' on the cable if you like - but many that do, come back in here and post with all kinds of problem questions once the inferior version of the cable doesn't work properly
