As a fellow BMW 750i owner, I have taken great inspiration to repair my recently acquired 2006 750i, from all your past videos. Having a nifty device like that could help me plenty with my airbag issues that still persist to this day.

[@noitrex]

I had the previous gen. when i had an Audi, it helped me alot of times, clearing codes, doing rear brake jobs, i could really use one now since i just bought an f30 325d 3 months ago.

[@piovo5222]

325ds mapped are pretty quick for a 2ltr, my friend had one and I drove it many times 260bhp ish over 500nm but still could get 50+mpg at 80mph.

[@noitrex]

@@piovo5222 i did a stage 1 too, i got around 270 on dyno Yes, it's one of the most powerful 2 liter diesel engines, that is why i got it, a 330d/335d it's better but the insurance and the tax are crazy in my country, anything over 2 and you pay x10 I usually get 10 L/100km(23 mpg US) but i drive fast, illegal most of the time, high speed overtakes all day everyday

[@simonthompson8129]

Always a great source of info for the home BMW diy’er! F11 N57 swirl flap delete was lock down project!

[@brarautorepairs]

Brake disk drying is a feature promoted by BMW called "dry brakes". It keep apply the brakes every so often to prevent moisture between the pads and rotors.

[@clueless6559]

Look at codes , clear codes , turn on /off stuff that you may not have ,

[@paulb8186]

As soon as you mentioned 'credits' George I knew this was just a cash grabber!

[@Petro2004]

Bimmer tool app + obd2 bluetooth dongle is the best in my opinion...Great tool.

[@leiflillandt1488]

As I mention below what does this show regarding to everything around the DPF? And wenn you change "parts" in the F-series cars including batteries, etc. I guess this like many others aren't quite good on E-series. Next time wenn you make a review, make in advance a checklist of the most interesting points that will be interesting for a DIY. To be able to add things, I think, isn't as important as seeing problems arising, and to code new parts that have to be exchanged sooner or later. Now these tools are starting to be both advanced and affordable, so it's more interesting to know what you can't do with them! 🙄 Now I'm waiting to see what will happen if you renew the sealings/gaskets in the high pressure pump in your cheap diesel car. Then, are you sure that there's no leakage in some of the injectors? Have a nice weekend!

[@peteraustin1905]

Great channel George, can you do a video on low fuel pressure on 116d and how to find the actual fault, changing a part you think might be the fault and turns out to be something else because fault codes can relate to multiple parts can be costly.

[@ThePetersTravelshow]

Always wanted to buy one of these,but not too sure about costs. Will check this one out

[@DelroyFarquharson]

It looks very good

[@howardwhite7317]

Great vid and great bit of kit. Seems as good if not better in terms of speed as some of the competitors such as Carly. BIG like from me.

[@BryceBrown1]

Great vid! So many scan tools out there! I've settled for Carly, a bit expensive though. Interesting with this one that it works in credits, do these credits expire if you don't use them within a certain time?

[@DJCrisisUK]

Carly seems better than this, don’t like the sound of a credit system.

[@elliotdavis4641]

Good review mate. I’m looking at getting Carly or similar

[@karter5351]

Looks to be useful device, when are we going to see more on the 3 longroof with the fuelling iseue

If it's second hand, replace everything at the same time with quality/oem/uprated parts and enjoy.

Yes,its e82 118d 2012year...chain,vater pump,crankshaft pulley,injectors checked,all the belts new,oil,filters...egr and dpf off...and today replaced abs and stability control rings and sensors on rear axel shaft...thank you for your videos and I learn alot from you...thank you againe

[@stevenclark1973]

Great vid again... nice to see reviews on some beemer gear also... nice change. 👍

[@hanlines]

Been following for a bit now, great content and looking forward to more. I was hoping to see or hear you talk about a DPF regen option on this device. Surely it must for my 2010 X5 35d

[@hanlines]

I don’t use instagram unfortunately:(

[@leiflillandt1488]

I also noticed that George didn't talk about DPR either. I have a X3 20d 2008, N47, with a fault code that says that I have about 30,000 km left (to about 250,000 km) before "service". I would also like to see regenerations, and of course how to reset the next code coming up that shows that the time is run out, and start a new session of 250,000 km. 😉

[@brarautorepairs]

@@leiflillandt1488 get bimmer tools to reset the DPF life (DPF age factor) back to zero. You have to buy the fuel version.

[@brarautorepairs]

@@hanlines Please buy bimmertools

[@zaddlife5968]

Thanks mate! 🍻

[@alfredgabri7946]

Hi George, thanks for yet another helpful video! Could I use this device to map out an EGR delete?

[@GeorgeAusters]

No you’d have to take your car to a tuner

[@svhulda6157]

Don't have insta. Never the less, nice piece of equipment!

George, wanna meet up and see if it does some coding options on my e61

[@saracentiano]

Hey George. Sorry, I don't use instagram, so guess the app is not for me. Was hoping to ask what will be better for the inpa or Carly app for e60 520d... have been seeing the carly app for sale for 10 gbp.

Not sure

[@wingpingfan7500]

Yet to try an OBD device for my e90 🤩

[@leiflillandt1488]

Unfortunately you have to swap to a F-series! This "option" I at least consider, but it will be quite costly... How much is interesting to pay for a change from 2008 20d X3/e83 with 220,000 km to a F25/x3, maybe 30d, 2011-13 with 200,000 km? Maybe it's more interesting to drive around in Spain and Italy to avoid a dark and cold winter!? 🙄

buy bimmercode and bimmerlink instead

[@khaledaborashed9392]

Good new video 👍

[@mbelkadi7936]

Look good

[@NordicAdvRider]

I used this with my Audi before, and in my opinion it’s just a piece of crap. Very unreliable and their support is useless too. Much better to spend the money on ISTA.

[@leiflillandt1488]

I'm afraid, you are right! But if you go up to 500 e/usd you can find some interesting tools. The problem is that you should know what kind of issues you want to solve! Reading fault codes doesn't solve any issues. Monitoring live data can show you some indication, but then you should know the acceptable intervals. There is a reason why a mechanic has a several year education, yearly courses of at least 1-2 weeks, and still have problems to find out what is really wrong. Some are getting quite good though - after 15-20 years in the business...

[@jamalabdulaziz1419]

How about old bmw model E60?Still able to use it?

[@GeorgeAusters]

Only F series onwards

[@stanke503]

Nice

[@ZafiraSteve]

Also, if you activate something for say ten credits but don't like it, if you deactivate it then do you get your ten credits back?

[@piovo5222]

Doubt it.

[@1minutevideos257]

Yeah.Every single coding costs credits.No matter activate or deaktivate.

[@markymark7200]

Is it better than ista?

[@GeorgeAusters]

I would have to say no - it's certainly not as in depth as ISTA but a lot easier / faster to use!

[@ZafiraSteve]

Can you code with ista?

[@leiflillandt1488]

@@ZafiraSteve At least ISTA+ can do "a lot", but you need a connector/cable that can let you reach all modules.

[@GeorgeAusters]

You can do programming with ISTA P but you need a lot of equipment - ICOM cable, voltage stablizer etc

[@Daril2024]

Niiice!!!

More than likely yes, there is a link in the description to check if your car is compatible

[@scott2495]

Deep down he knows its cr”p he is just getting paid to review it

[@leiflillandt1488]

He needs to have a check list if he want to compare the tools, and then he comperes against the check list.

[@GeorgeAusters]

This is an honest review. I never say anything for money.

Better than Bimmercode an bimmerlink ?
