The ebay link posted is no longer valid. I have an 09/2006 build car.. Soo i think it uses the older double K Line setup. I want to find a cable that is confirmed to work. Ive found one on onestopelectronics but i dont want to spend $100 on a simple cable if i dont have to.

Did the cable work for you? I am looking at the same cable for my 2008 BMW 335i.

Interesting because the ebay link says works on E90 built after 3/07. Glad it worked though. I'm wanting to order it myself as I have an 07 335xi but I don't know my build date. Out of town right now so I can't just look at car. Can you tell by VIN?

BTW did that disk that was supplied with the cable come with some software or just drivers?

I purchased this for my 07 e90 (01/07 build) and it worked great for coding my injectors. It has the green board that people recommend

Go to either bmwfans or realoem. Enter your vin and it will tell you the vehicles build date. Month / Year.

I thought most of the cables work for the pre march 07 builds.. the trick is the post march 07

ever try it on a post 03/07? that's they key for a majority of the cables.

I will let you know soon. I am letting a member use it right now but he is trying to source a computer with xp or 32 bit. Everyone says the green works fine.

It's a hit or miss with those eBay ones, sometimes you get one that works and another that doesn't. Sometimes you get one that's green, blue, black PCV board.. some have different wiring so some may not work. But as the saying goes "you get what you pay for".

I have 2010 e60. and I cant find which cable to use for my car since its built after 2007.
Could someone give me a link for the cable that would actually work on my car for coding?
I tried buying from ebay, but did not work. Thank you!
