Following his instructions worked for me, but had to do 2 things to get the USB cable to connect to my car (E70): 1. I edited in the Ediabas.bin file under the Ediabas/bins/ folder to interface = STD:ODB from REMOTE and 2. Under Windows Device Manager Port Settings Advanced I changed the COM Port to 1 (no other number works) the 2 transfer rates to 4096 and the latency to 1.
Evan thanks for your continued contributions to the advancement in BMW automotive services, I have two 04 spec 530 BMW's one is a manual and one a auto the adaptive function for the headlights on neither work the manual i brought new so I know they did work for a great deal of its life and when they did stop working once lights were replaced under warranty delaminating. Auto was not working when purchased. However I have replaced the AHL, and the motor controllers on the manual even swapped the lights out between cars in different Combinations to no avail the manual says that they fail to wake and the other says AHL failure, I can however go into inpa and make the lights move on the manual car, I also have ista d and ista p not that familiar with it so trying to find where I go and try to get them to work again, also would the steering wheel having random dtc, traction, and cruise errors have any bearing on the issue at a loss. Thinking about spending money on new lights but not sure if it would fix the issue of not wakeing up error
I know it is late, but i wanted to atleast try and give you an answer. Even if you just switch the dodules which control the healights you have to code them. Modules dont have memory in them everithing is stored in the AHL. The AHL loks for the specific module signal to know which is left and right and to perform the movement. The dtc, tractions errors are not related to this, however, they are relatively easy to diagnose. Again i know it is late, but hope this helps, i am new to the BMW scene, but recently bought a 525i e61 and am learning more and more.
Hello Evan - I appreciate the video. ISTA+ is very complicated and not intuitive for people like me who are new to it and not using it so much. HOWEVER, I have a problem. Using ISTA+ v 47 - which is the last release before BMW shut down later versions. I have loaded it up. Entered the VIN and it appears to function. NOW MY PROBLEM. I have a permanent code that shows on my separate OBD tool for the air flaps at the radiator. I have the occasional "Drivetrain error message - you can continue to drive, contact nearest service provider." The drivetrain error comes and goes. The air adjustable suspension control in not working and now the traction control light comes on from time to time BUT in ISTA, the FAULT MEMORY tab is grayed out!!! And, there is no place else I can find any codes. Yes, I have an "ACTIVE" case and all the other standalone functions seem to work. Late 2016 750i X-Drive. So, I know I have faults, but why would ISTA have no stored codes?!?
Great video, I have subscribed with a thumbs up! You mentioned there is a way to get the ISTA+ program. Can you please send a link or instructions? Thank you!
This sort of software should be provided for free to all customers by law. It's like having a quick-start guide in the glove box but for the modern era.
Good video quality. May I suggest you post another video explaining how, if it is indeed possible, to delete or clear 'Finished operations' Another explaining why in SETTINGS/Data Protection the list of VINs you want to keep confidential clears every time you close and restart.
Hi Evan, you mentioned in the video that you can let us know where to get ISTA software can you let me know and does it need a license for it to work, thanks in advance.
How did you configure the PSdZ to work? I see you have "Software Update" option available. Im trying to get this as full function as possible. Awesome video, thank you.
Great video Evan!! I have problem ista+ communicating with all the modules. Even 3 dealerships are not able to communicate with all modules. Any thoughts on what could be causing the failure to communicate? I can send you screenshots of the vehicle test results if that helps.
Hi, great work!! Please shed some light. I recently changed all my injectors in my M47 engine. I have an E46 320d. I am trying to code the new injectors to my ECU Any help will be appreciated, INPA is giving me errors now I have ista + running smoothly
AWESOME, video, EVAN 🙂, Thanks for the effort, really cool software, did you say you had made a voltage 'stabilizer' when coding to keep battery voltage consistent, as i had a few issues, is there a 'video' or a link, as that would be a lifesaver, kindest regards man, keep up the great work 🙂😎
Hi Evan(Mike) Thanks for so many video i have them all. I appropriate if you can send me how can i get ISTA as you said in video. Can i use it for coding different battery instillation .I have lead acid battery on my 323i probably i need to change it to AGM battery with different capacity.Can i do coding with ISTA D.
Sub and liked! Question: Can you program F-series with Enet? I have a guide that says you can only program ISTA+ to F-series with ICOM cable. You know anything about it?
Hi, just so I understand correctly - To diagnose on my BMW E90, i should download ISTA+ software to my laptop and then get a specific cable to connect to the OBDII port? Where do I find the software and cable in the UK and what should I expect to pay? Many thanks.
So I got bmw 328i 3 series f30 n20 2012 and I wanted to know what insta could work on my car. I’m trying to get one for it cause I just change the valvetronic servomotor. And I need to do some test on it.
I am using this on an f25 x3 with ENET cable and it won’t let me access the “programming plan” as I wanted to program the vehicle. But programming plan is greyed out it won’t let me click it. Any reason why?
Thanks so much for the helpful video. I've got a 2011 X5 35i E70. and I'm chasing a Dynamic Drive malfunction issue. Carly gave e 006273 code which was somewhat vague. So I obtained ISTA and trying to get it to work with my X5. I think I had the wrong interface selected in the software, I'm using a DCAN cable and need to switch to your recommendation (eidabus?). I feel my issue is either the Dynamic Drive control module or the valve body itself-(Dynamic Drive controls the electronic roll bars)--hoping ISTA can pinpoint my issue! Do you have any experience with Dynamic Drive issues, or my fault code 006273 in particular? Thanks again!
There are lots of people on FleaBay that sell software already preinstalled on a HDD, to fit into your laptop, buy from reputable sellers, that offer a 'remote session' to enable the drivers etc, so that your interface is recognized, and begins to function properly, message me, if your still looking for this item, and i'll try to help, take care, 🙂
yo, little late. But i downloaded the software, but i noticed after typing vin, your control unit tree and control unit test isnt grayed out like mine. just hoping I didnt install it wrong and its a bug or something
Hey Evan I have a e46 and I watched your tutorial on the installation of INPA and NCS Expert, well it’s in German and I was wondering is there a way to change it to English. Help please
hello Evan Goyuk im planning to replace my old valve body to a used one from ebay...i heard i would need to programm or code the new valve body once instaled so will i be able to do all this using ista? Do you know how to do it? maybe you have any links to diy youtube video many thanks and much appreciated

Here before bmw nukes this video from a German Death Star. It’s fun to watch you stumble through ista🤣.
Hi,I own a 2017 x5 F15 N55 I would like to know how I can get ista and what cable/s to buy,thanks!
Awesome video!
This is great! Thanks! I am not able to communicate with my car using a k-dcan cable. Do you have a guide with that adapter?
Awesome video I'm convinced I need Ista+ to repair a BMW I recently bought that has some bugs to work out.
