Inpa related question How do I get the r56 mini to show up

e36ti · 09-30-2019, 01:37 AM

I am using the bimmergeeks inpa and don't see the mini r56 model. How do I go about getting it to load or show up on the menu. I don't think it's covered in the bimmergeeks inpa version so how would I add it in? Thanks for the replies

Bump.... Wasn't able to get this resolved yet could it be the bimmergeeks inpa is different? I wasn't able to change the start menu based on some the searches I've seen. Any suggestions would be helpful

I would recommend using ISTA for Mini diagnostics and service functions

TX this may push me to play with ista but specifically I wanted to activate the dtmla pump in the mini to check the evap system I know inpa does that easily

Update the config. Simple stuff.

I've tried but doesn't seem to save the bimmergeeks has 2 cofig files somehow

Do you have R56.ENG in C:\EC-APPS\INPA\CFGDAT?

Thanks for all the help everyone who responded was able to resolve this what was throwing me off was that there were 2 cdgat folders in the version of bimmergeeks inpa I deleted cfgat2 and modified the remaining one as noted also ensuring I had the r56. Eng file

Hi, newbee here, trying to sort out my old R56 Cooper after renewing the timing gear. I need to reset the VANOS adaptations. I have INPA loaded and apparently working but as in the original post no R56 in the menus. I'm not the most computer literate but can see I've also got two cfgdat folders, CFGDAT & 2CFGDAT. I also have R56.ENG in both of them! Can anyone guide me step by step please.
