Very nice explanation. I'm looking to update my F11 530i DME but i was wondering where i could get the ISTA+ software from that you are using. I bought one online but it looks very different to the one you have. If i'm correct i have version 4.32.1 Which one are you using and where can i get it?

Hi There, great video and very helpful for those of us that need help and expert guidance. My question is about the type of power supply unit you're using (i.e. who's the manufacturer?). Thanks for your help.

[@Calimero-1980]

Thank you for your time great video, now out of curiosity anyone can do these updates from home to their BMW by just having the ISTA P installed in a computer ? Im confused. Thanks

[@MOvidiu]

Hello, I don't recommend you to do it widout the experience! But yes, everything is inside ista , istaD, and istaP has around 500gb of information , either so the security FSC codes for special functions are not generated or kept in ista !

[@aincrad3344]

Hi, thanks for the video. The fault code in the end: non-permissible current value on unlock line, what does that mean? Is that related to the action that you left driver door open but manually locked it?

[@nikinikolov4775]

Dear, this is a great video tutorial!!! I have just 1 important question. In best cause all processes will be like shown in this video BUT... in my cause ( and not only ) ISTA/P ask to replace some module??? For example FRM3 module that have no any problems and work OK ( and is OK according ISTA/D too ). This module was updated outside the car because of software crash and I thing this is a reason ( updated with last possible version ). How to update other modules without problems with this one. Cannot remove it - remove from measure plane but still exist after determination plane is calculating. Is there any solution???

[@johan7507]

Love the channel! Good to see interesting content on BMWs! Keep it up! Just curious: why only reprogram the DME to a firmware which it already has? Then why write the new I-level when only the DME is running at that integration level? BMW takes great care to release only a complete configuration. This way you have an untested set of firmwares running together. Probably the reason why ISTA+ only lets you program the whole configuration.

Nice, i have always wondered how ISTA P works, i have only used D. Do you know if there is somewhere we can see whats changed in newer software updates? Like a changelog. Do you have the orginal icom from bmw or is it a copy? I saw the orginal for sale and it didnt seem to expensive actually, the clones seems to almost cost the same. Guess the software is what costs.

[@MOvidiu]

You didn't understand, the navigation can fail when programming in the software writing step, and from ilevel 2018 on the car, you can't use istaP anymore, you need to use ista+ and in ista+ you can't deselect the navigation modules from programming if you have a newer ilevel ista

[@nick066hu]

Can someone please tell me some examples what features, function are added, or refined with an Integration update. Are there any noticeable changes when driving, using the car, or perhaps a more efficient operation, so it is worth the hassle? I usually keep all my PC software updated the very moment a new version gets released, and I feel the urge to do it on my 2017 F15 X5 also. Are there 'release notes' from BMW somewhere that lists what changes between versions (integrations)? Are there any risk, downside of an upgrade?

Greetings sir. Your video on programming BMW is excellent. It answered many questions I had. I have a 2011 F11 and it is on the factory software. I wondered if there had been any refinements in the gearbox control and DDE unit over the years and would like to update some of my modules. I wonder if you know if the updates for these example modules would show any difference to how the car operates? Im not clear on the i-level and how updating a single control unit affects the operation of the other control units. Thank you for your video and your time :) Thom

If yes, as an option I have a huge Agilent lab power supply device (it weighs 30kgs) capable of 0-30V 0-60A (I'm an electronic engineer). I guess I set it to a voltage limit of 14.7 and large enough current limit, it'll do it.
