IBM Thinkpad A31 with BMW Diagnostics

[dbworld4k]

Bought this off a fellow member a few days ago, but unfortunately for my '09 E92 I needed newer software and a different OBD2 cable. Should work fine for E36/38/39/46/53/etc. Just not anything newer than 07.

So, I am putting this up for sale for any of you who missed out on it before!

It currently has:
EDIABAS
INPA
DIS v44
SSS

Includes both 20-pin and lower-dashboard OBD2 connector cables. There are a number of other pieces of software and BMW related information also on the laptop.

The battery doesn't hold a charge on the laptop. Works perfectly fine when you keep it plugged in using the long charger cable that it comes with, or buy a new battery on eBay.

Looking to get back what I paid: $100 firm.

Hey,

I am also looking for something to be able to scan the on board computer of my 2008 550i. Have you found anything? Price?

I haven't looked into how the system works yet? Any idea? Please let me know...

Thanks!

Thanks!

Short version: You need a K+DCAN cable and the latest daten files, along with INPA and NCS Expert (look on E90 post for some tutorials). I did a clean install of the software on my MacBook and everything works for my 2009 E92.

Shorter version: Google.

Sold.

Anybody have links to the above mentioned software? Most links I find are either old/broken/etc...???
