Hi Guys/Gals

So I have a Bluetooth dongle that I use on my X6 that works flawlessly and everything can be coded and codes cleared

For some reason when I want to connect bimmer-code there is no option for my M5 to check codes and clear faults (potentially look at issues)

Any suggestions for a app that actually works and is capable as a replacement for bimmer-code?

I have Carly (Not a fan at all) and BimmerCode (can only do coding on it but not able to do a health check and see stored codes to clear them)

If you search under G30, does that give an option?

So when you open the app up it gives you the following options

And then even if you go into 5 series it only has the following options

So it seems like it dont support the F90 cars

Bimmer Link should work, same okes that do bimmer code

Problem is I already paid for the bimmer-tool. Bimmerlink is R695. I emailed the developer and he said the F11 should work fine as its the same Engin but when I tried it yesterday it could almost do nothing and did not pick up the same codes as Carly (which i hate to use and dont use)

He is asking that I just give him all the modules and they might just add it as most of the values show 0

Hi,

I had time today to check the coding tools,
Bimmercode has one option for 5 series.

M5 is included under 5 series

BimmerLink didn’t ask which car model.
Goes into the diagnosis stage.
