What program do I need?
Just got my K+DCAN cable in the mail today and would like to know what program(s) I should download and install. I would like to perform coding, read/erase fault codes, and perform the Alpina trans flash. Links to the software download would be helpful too, as it's pretty hard to find working links these days.
Thanks! |

Sounds like you need BMW Standard Tools:
Diagnostics - INPA Coding - NCS-Expert Software flash - Winkfp Easiest way to install is by using the coding pack: http://dfiles.eu/files/o0cro356a Instructions inside. Depending what i-level your car is it you may need to update the sp-daten. (use BMW coding tool included in pack) |

So I tried unzipping it with windows 7 and it gave me an error, and then with 7-zip and all of the files have no size, ie 0 bytes. What's the trick here? Last edited by ferocity02; 07-22-2014 at 11:38 PM.. |

Is this what I need? In addition to the BMW standard tools linked earlier? Sorry I am a little new to all of this. A bit of information overload right now.

You will be able to read/erase fault codes with that K+DCAN cable.
You can also use Rheingold BMW diagnostic software for reading/erasing fault memory and testing components which is very easy to use. |

What is this Rheingold diagnostic software? I suspect I may have an injector going and want to replace them and recode them and reset adaptations. If the cable I linked above is incorrect can you link me to one I should buy? Thank you! |

Does this pack come with the latest SP-daten that I need? It says it comes with V49 for E8X, will that work for me? Mine is an 2007 E90. I'm having a slough of errors when trying to connect to the car with INPA. |

I did get the EXX.ipo error, found the file online, and put it into the correct folder. But I get another error, forgot what it said exactly. I'm beginning to think my 04/2007 has the older protocol. |

Hooray! I was able to connect to my car using the download and guide here: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=645844
I only spent a couple minutes in INPA but took some screenshots from the "Functional Jobs" menu. Can someone take a look and let me know if you see any strange? I noticed there is an E104 fault in the KOMBI, is this something to worry about? Since I'm using a K+DCAN cable, does this mean my car has the newer 04/2007+ protocol? |

E104:
CAN low error Error will not cause a warning light Error is not currently present Test conditions have been completed I believe is reference to rain/light sensor. Clear it and see if it returns. Are you auto wipers / lights working correctly? (if fitted?) |

Sensible,
When installing the BMW coding pack, do I need to follow the steps in this PDF to amend the "Path" variable and add the "ediabas_config_dir" variable in the Environment Variables window? There was nothing in the coding pack about this, but it seems like it might be important. |
