On the battery management, does it allow to code as well as register a new battery, where the battery amperage has been upgraded (e.g. 70Ah to 80Ah) from previous? Thanks.
Purchased this scan tool based on your content and again I must say as a new BMW/Z4 owner your content has been such a valuable asset to me. Thank you very much.
@@SenseiAizawa I'm sorry for the confusion. I'm new BMW Z4 owner but my Z4 isn't new LOL I have a 2010 E89 twin turbo Z4. Love your content thank you for all the help you provide for us fellow Z4 owners.
Haha the only function I wanted to check was a fault on my zed steering angle reset ...the one you didn't show haha oh well I'm hoping it works to recalibrate this...thanks for the video.👍
Good video and scanner review it was very informative. I wish I would have bought your scanner, I bought a Creatdor C310+, a few years ago and it does not have a battery reset feature and some of the other functions that yours has, although my 2001 BMW 530i does not require it.
Its a very good scanner the scanner do the job well can also register the BMW battery,ABS,check,delete codes with no problem for sure too say it easy thnxs a lot;) but of course the video speak for this 100 say it that way.
Nice Looks like this is the scanner. I noticed you skipped over the transfer case selection…Do you know if there is an option to reset the transfer case after a fluid change as a dealership would? Thanks in advance
This is a total winner, for the price also. Great for weekend warriors like me just want to know what's going on, but will have their mechanic do any of the more serious work...
That's what I was thinking when I got it. Sure, I have others that will do more.. but they also cost 5 times more. This will do pretty much everything you need it to do for a good price.
great your video bravo for the tutorial little question with this diag for bmw have little coded new injector? Register a new battery? regenerate the DPF? reset of the drain indicators? is much more with thank you for your answer good luck
Just ordered it. My battery is going out and BMW wanted to charge me nearly $ 600. Got the OEM battery for $250, this device for $ 90 and my buddy charged $50 to install it.
This is a great review but I have one question because I didn't see it on the scanner when you went into BMW specific. I have an 08 BMW X5 4.8i. I'm just wondering if this will do the electrical and coil pack diagnosis? Great review. Thank you very much
Just received my BM700 scanner for my 2009 e89 and decided to give it a try. I know your demo was on your 5 series and the ecu is a little more sophisticated than my e89 but have you tried the I/M function on your e89? The one thing I couldn't bring up is the I/M readiness menu. It's not shown on the screen like in your demo (3 ecu choices) and it doesn't show up on the display by simply pressing the I/M function button, Am I missing something? or are the I/M readiness faults (if any) stored in just the one ecu menu? In your battery registration BM700 video (while scanning your e89) I noticed at the 3:24 mark there is an option to clear all fault codes would that be a viable option? or should the faults be cleared one at a time?
Make sure your car is in accessory mode when checking I/M, other than that it should work. As far as clearing codes, I normally clear all codes when I start working on a car or project, then go on a test drive and see what comes back. Then I take it one at a time and erase one module at a time as I fix the issues. Thanks for watching!
@@SimpleCarGuy Thanks for the quick response!!! Quickly pressing the start / stop button 3 times in succession will get me to the accessory / diagnostic mode. Question? What is the process used to get out of the accessory / diagnostic mode? Push the start / stop button twice?
Accessory mode should just be one press on the start button if you have comfort access and putting the key in and pressing the button (dont press the brake). Then you can just press it again to exit or start car normally.
Great review of the features available. Would the higher priced $600 diagnostic tools have the same capabilities as the BM700 does for BMW's specifically?
2000 BMW X5 E53 M62 - Did not work at all, very little functions and did not even support battery reg. Which is why i bought in the first place. Can you recommend any other Scanner that does work for my specific needs?
Excellent tutorial.i have purchased this one for my 2013 x5 35i and it takes awhile to figure it out,but otherwise it a great tool!!Just 3 questions>>>> i replaced my both fog light bulbs with LED,since then it continues to pop up in my idrive screen that "My left FOGLIGHT BULB IS MALFUNCTION",what i need to know is, can I use this tool to go into my vehicle computer settings and "turn off" the fog light bulbs "selfcheck" ???

Also can these "angel eyes" headlight be turn up a little brighter on those bmw/s with this tool ty 100-100
You will get BMW specific codes. Not only that, you can scan the individual module and get codes from it and live data on that specific module. Does that mean you’ll know what the problem is 100%? No, but there isn’t a scanner that will do that.
Does it only just read & delete the fault codes or it can also help programme the functions of interior exterior lights, windows, central locking system AC and the whole nine yards?
Sir , sorry my wife and I are new to this would help if you showed how and where to plug it in first ‘n thank you mr smart ( now we know it’s by the left lower corner .. wow So insightful zzZzZ

I'm miles away from a BMW service or independent service locations, so this could be helpful to me. Also, the battery will not hold a charge, so may be time for a new battery. Thanks for your response. =D=
Awesome thanks man! Does this have to be connected to you car to check out all the functions? Or can it be used as a stand alone unit? Just don't want to accidentally reset or erase something 😂
Just a quick question...does this device Check on A/C for example, my A/C doesn't distribute the temperature proportionally. One vent is very cold and the other is warm or not cold. I did some research and it's the blend door sensor or switch. But I need to figure out which one is it and with this tool would find which one it is? Or any recommendations. I have a 2005 BMW 545i
Yes, you can. I have upgraded my battery on my 335i from 80 to 90 Ah and was able to program and register it. If you are going from same capacity to the same capacity, you only need to register it (brand does not matter, you are programming the battery module and not the actual battery).
Nice video; thank you! However, when you introduced AUTEL AP200, I ordered one! I haven't had to use it much so far (thank God for that!) As far as I gather though, AP200 offers all the things that this Ancel one does; isn't that correct?
You’re correct, Autel AP200 can do most everything this one can do, but it is much slower to connect (fine if you need it once in a while, annoying if you use it daily). Both are great, slightly different uses. Thanks for watching!
There aren't any codes that will tell you exactly that timing chain has failed, but yes, it will show you codes for all modules including engine ones reporting timing information.
I bought this scanner two days ago for my e60 and damn did I found 9 codes that I didn’t know The car had because it didn’t show up on the check engine light but sadly I can’t register my battery for some reason due to Communication issues

Great video, i watched several time at the point that you made me bid in one on this device in ebay, waiting now for this new toy to be delivered. I have a concern about when you replace battery and register battery, my Q is about if there is way when you replace the battery not to loose all the set up already done like radio preferences? I also have a 2009 BMW Z4 3.0. Thank you
I like these types of scanners because they just work. With the phone one, it may or may not work if you have bad internet connection, sometimes it doesn't connect to bluetooth well etc etc. This just works and even if the company goes out of business, it will still work.
Yes, this scanner can scan the central locking system module and every other module on a BMW. It only functions as a regular OBD2 scanner for other cars and cannot scan individual modules like it can on a BMW. This scanner can scan pretty much any car's modules, but is more expensive: th-cam.com/video/gOrdj9lKhVw/w-d-xo.html
Hi, thanks for the video, I'm new to looking at these scanners & really want an affordable one for my BMW, but my wife also has an Audi. Do I need two scanners for both cars? I really like the new battery register function, would this work on the Audi as well or not?
Hi Steve! This is a BMW specific scanner. It is a bi-directional scanner (meaning it can write to modules, like registering a battery, programming injectors etc.). These functions will only be available for BMW (Mini and RR) cars. The regular OBD2 scanning will work on any car, including the Audi, but you will not see internal codes or be able to do any of the bi-directional functions. It will act as a standard OBD2 scanner (that can be found for $20) on all cars that aren't BMWs. So, your options are to get this one for BMWs and find an equivalent for the Audi OR get a multi car scanner that can do both (and many others), but those start at around $400. I'm in the process of reviewing one of these and will have a video out in a week or so: amzn.to/2VYJrI9
@@SimpleCarGuy thanks for that info. I've just been looking at a Foxwell NT510, & that lists functions like coding injectors & new battery registration, & I don't think it's BMW specific. Have you had any experience of this brand? Thanks

@@SimpleCarGuy I'm sorry for the bad English, I'm Portuguese ... I already bought and used it, my opinion: It is very complete and works perfectly.

But good news, no errors in my z4 e89 2010 model 23i with 54000km is immaculate , the battery is still original,is not very good...

Absolutely! It works on my BMW Z4 28i.

I'm sorry for the bad English, I'm Portuguese ...
I already bought and used it, my opinion: It is very complete and works perfectly.
The only problem I found is that if you press the initial item OBDII - it cannot establish a connection - which forces me to enter the item "for bmw". I wonder why???
But good news, no errors in my z4 e89 2010 model 23i with 54000km is immaculate , the battery is still original,is not very good...
I can add that it also works on my other mini r56 cooper s 184hp car
My best regards

@@jfjajfja8676 That is very strange that it would no establish connection for OBD2. I haven't had that issue on Mini R56, E89 Z4 or F10 550i. I'm glad the rest works and thanks for watching!
Hello friend, with this scanner can I reset the CAS or ELV module of a BMW 1 Series 120i from 2009?
Yes, it can reset the module, but it cannot program it etc.
@@SimpleCarGuy Friend, thanks for your reply, do you know of any scanners that can program or reprogram it?
Do you think this scanner would be able to make the seat calibration message go away? 2011 535i
It can definitely clear the code that will make the message go away, but if there is an issue with the module or sensor etc. it will come back
Cómo calibras el cuerpo de aceleración e70 ? Buen día.
hi, on a 2008 BMW 335 i convertible , is it a E 93 or 92? Would that scanner be good for it ?
Your car would be an e93. This scanner would be great for this car.
@@SimpleCarGuy thx
Does it also works on a 2019 Honda Pilot? Thanks in more power to your channel.
It can do the basic OBD2 functions, but it can only do all the cool stuff (like reading individual modules) on BMWs only.
I just bought it do i need to download any software or update it ? My bmw is stuck in limbo mode
You should haven't to update anything on the scanner unless your car is very new and just got support or something like that.
Can this module remove certain codes like fog light or reverse lamps?
It can reset the code, but it will not remove it if your bulb is out or not compatible. This does not ‘code’ things out.
@simplecarguy. Does the scanner code a new battery from lead acid to agm with higher capacity?
Not as far as I know. To put it more correctly, it registers a new battery, but does not code in new values necessarily.
Will this scanner display transmission fluid temp in the data for a 2016 mini
If the module reports that information, yes.
thanks for all the info, looks like a great scanner that works well on bmws. Is this the scanner you'd recommend or have you found a better one?
So far this is the best BMW scanner I have found and used. Thanks for watching.
can this work for non european cars as well? Honda or Toyota?
This is a BMW specific scanner. It can only do simple OBD2 scan for everything else which a $25 scanner can do.
