Yeah I had the CIC fitted earlier this year. Its currently got the 2014 maps so just thought I would upgrade them to 2016 maps but need the get the VIN out of the CIC as per this thread.
As its a 2006 E90 an Ethernet straight to the ODB isn't going to work so just want to know if the item I linked to is what I should be buying to plug into the USB port in the glove box. |
I'm not 100% versed on CIC retros, but I've read a bunch on this subject. Just grabbing the VIN/1B from your CIC is just the first step of many as you may already know. But, I think you will also have to cut a couple of wires behind the CIC so that it does not attempt to verify VIN with the CAS. It's not as simple as getting the file then generating the FSC.
