Overview
What you see
- Which control units responded and how many faults each one has
- Units with no faults clearly separated from units that did not answer
- For every fault: the code, its status (present now or stored, not currently present) and a plain-language description
- Descriptions in several languages, stored on the head unit — no internet or phone needed
Safe by design
- Reading starts only when you choose it, and can be cancelled
- Nothing runs in the background
- Read-only: it never clears faults or changes anything in the car. Clearing faults and repairs are left to your workshop.
How it works
- 1. Open Diagnostics in the iDrive menu
- 2. Start the read
- 3. Review the control unit list and open any fault for details
What You need
- A BMW with an NBT EVO head unit
- A supported NBT EVO software version
- The list of readable control units comes with each release; the first version has not been tested on every unit
Head unit software versions
The list grows as versions are tested on cars.
