Supported Cars

  • All BMW models from 2000–2024
  • Model years 2008 and newer: Full functionality via USB, Bluetooth, or Wi-Fi.
  • Models before 2008 (e.g., E46, E39, E83, E53):
    • Limited functionality
    • Only works reliably with K+DCan USB cable
    • Wireless ELM327 adapters may not connect or lack full features

🔌 Recommended OBD Adapters
