Hi

Anybody have any experience or recommendations of the budget Ebay advertised ECU/ diagnostic software and cable? For about £30 there are few choices.

I'm looking for something to do diagnostics and make lights go out, that is easy to use.

Thanks,

Marty

I've got the same cable and software.
Trying to get an old laptop now to run it on.
Have a look at some BMW forums for info,it looks good once you have it running but people do have some issues loading it up.

Maybe something here which will help:
