Can you pm me the link or place where you can get cable for $60? I've got DIS running under vmware and just need to get a cable to work with the e90.

Any word on this? My research says that only the Pro version will be able to do "Coding" but I can't get any info about what kind of coding the BT cable/software can do.

I have a huge interest in this whole shared knowledge and to prevent greediness of some "members", all for the greater interest of the community. I'm willing to help slightly. I mean if someone got a website to help host this DIY info, I'd gladly pay for a couple of month's worth of web hosting.

orangedawg · 11-07-2010, 08:01 PM

there is another forum out there with a section for setting up diagnostic software. It's not really geared to e90's, more for older bmw's, but there is a ton info it the forum there. I just need to figure out how to get a cable set up.

I bought a K-Line interface similar to this one and it didn't work for my BMW. Newer BMWs require a DCAN interface.

I love the digital speedometer on the display, where I have my steering wheel set it is hard for me to see the needle..

+1 on the digital speedo. Like you, I can't see the needle.

If I'm not mistaken the version of NCS EXPERT that I am currently using (3.1) should theoretically work for your car, we "load" it as another chassis. I'll explain more later.. I just got home from Miami couple more days of work and school then I can write this DIY, i'm just as excited about it as you guys are!

PS: i wasted countless days trying to get DIS and PROGMAN to successfully connect to the car there are 101 different variables. It's fun installing it but it's a huge disappointment when it doesn't connect to the car. Everything we are going to setup does not require complicated installations or VMware. We are going to Install INPA, EDIABAS and NCS Expert all within windows.

I have successfully tested on windows XP and windows 7 laptops with and without usb to serial adapter purchased from Best Buy. If you want to purchase that ahead of time here is the link. Please keep in mind I got this a discounted price but I know this one works for a fact, if you have or can find a cheaper adapter go for it.
