Hi Vladimir. If you don't mind, I want to request a Firmware Updating/ ECU Flashing for dummies video. Including some explanation on very basic things like what is I-step(target and shipment). What's the difference between ECU updating and software (iDrive) updating. How to get the newest ECU firmware version.. ECU update dependencies.. How to safely flash ECU.. And more... You will be the first one to create such a video on the World Wide Web. And a big thank you! for creating these informative vid tutorials for English users!

[@BimDoc]

Thank you again Vladimir for all you do! You set the standard for all the other BMW channels to emulate! Question, should all E-Sys versions and all ISTA-P and all ISTA+ versions installed point to the same psdzdata location? (C:\Data\psdzdata)

[@BimDoc]

Definitely not Only thing that can be shared are databases between esys and ista+

Awsome! finally got lite data showing on Esys. I am sure the topic is already covered somewhere here. Where would i go for some info on how to start coding new components after replacement? I changed rear lower gate drive and the lower gate is not automatically opens. I assume new part needed to be initialized or something?

Initialisation via ista is needed

Владимир! Огромное Вам спасибо за все видосы! Скажите а на БМВ 3 2017 двигатель B46 с помощью Исты возможно ли посмотреть состояние цепи по углам в самой программе? В мерседесе можно так некоторые модели не разбирая можно посмотреть состояние цепи грм. Смотрел Ваше Видео по замене цепей и понял что с учетом покупки всех спец съемников и работы получится примерно как на дилере по цене. Машину только приобрел, так что извините заранее за глупый вопрос.

[@BimDoc]

На бензинках по углу ваноса можно посмотреть состояние цепи. Но это не так очевидно там в ISTA+ сделано (

Hello Vladimir, I have a question for you. Can E-sys Launcher Pro 2.8.1 still be used for E-sys in 2023, because I read on many forums that it had expired on "13.06.2022" and can't be used anymore. I want to use it for FDL Coding F-series and G-series. Great video btw, thanks a lot for other information.

[@BimDoc]

It can be used but it’s a bit too old already and don’t support never psdzdata to properly work with G series

I ran across your vids. Great deed👍🏿I need to find the official link to ista download so I can install. Is there anyway you can help me find full pack? I don't want to download from the wrong consultant. I like your tutorial. I trust your guidance. Keep up the great work. Bimmerdoc💪🏿

Hi Vladimir, thank you for all your videos. I recently purchased a 2008 X5, and I look forward to using your guidance to troubleshoot and resolve some issues with the car. Are there any upgrades such as your video for automatic transmission that could be applied to the X5. Or if there are any tweaks to the computer that you recommend. Many thanks Peter from Australia.

In that vehicle you will need WinKFP to update transmission

Hi Vladimir, Thanks again for the videos. I can know follow as they are in English.
