ISTA Alternative Diagnosis Software
Hello everybody,
I bought a BMW for the first time after Audi and Mercedes. (X6 E71 3.5i) By using VCDS in Audi, I was able to perform most adaptations and coding and read detailed error codes. (about $20 on aliexpress) I could use XENTRY with Open Tactrix in Mercedes. Cable is about 30-40$ on aliexpress Now it's BMW's turn, I researched and its software is called ISTA if I'm not mistaken, but I couldn't find an alternative software. I would like to ask you to suggest an affordable and secure software that I can do coding, adaptation, testing, etc. for BMW. ! Or an affordable cable that can run ISTA, there are cables around $400-500 on Aliexpress, but they are very expensive. Since I live in Kazakhstan, I cannot ship from Europe etc., only Aliexpress ships here. i also have thinkcar obd but its only read the codes. |

Welcome to the forum. This forum is for G05 X5 (2019+). While someone here may know the answer to your question, you would likely get more responses by posting in the forum dedicated to E70 X5s, which is https://www.xbimmers.com/forums/index.php
You could also check out Bimmercode+Bimmerlink as well as Bimmer Utility. I purchased a BM700 direct from Ancel on AliExpress, so that may be a partial solution for you as well.
