I've posted a link to a great coding guide in here: https://g05.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1650202

Launcher Pro is mentioned in the thread. Basically, BMW have removed any meaningful descriptions of the codes, to try and prevent coding.

If you just use esys you can still VO Code fine, but if you want to do FDL coding, like for ADV, then just esys by itself wont work, for 2 reasons:
1) It needs a secure token to FDL code a car - without that it's do not pass go
2) You wont be able to make any sense of any of the codes

Launcher Pro automatically handles the token and maps the codes to meaningful descriptions. It's good up to 2018. Really new codes are still missing/trimmed unfortunately. You need to google tokenmaster and contact him to get a copy of Launcher Pro.

I have never had an issue getting the software from him, but I know others have in the past, so proceed at your own risk.
