If fitted Only on some cars of this model, depending on the engine or equipment.

✓ every version of the module; Most / Some: the versions we support (tap a module to see them); — not yet. Not listed per module yet: service functions, live values, coding.

What else it does on the E64

  • Live data: engine RPM, temperatures, voltages and other sensor values, updated as you drive; tap any reading to see it as a graph. Which readings you get depends on the car's modules.
  • Service: checks whether the car is ready for an emissions inspection (OBD readiness). Service jobs that change the car, like resetting the service reminders, come in free updates as we confirm each one on real cars of this model.
  • Coding: shows how each coded module is set up (the options the car was built with, the market, how the lights and locks behave) in plain English, and which settings differ from the factory's. For now it only reads the coding; it doesn't change it.

How-tos: Check if your BMW is ready for an emissions inspection · Check your BMW's battery health · Read and reset your BMW's service intervals (CBS) · Open your BMW's electric parking brake for a rear brake job

Why not a generic OBD2 code reader?

OBD2 is the emissions standard every car sold in the US since 1996 has to support. It covers the engine, and the transmission where it affects emissions: a fraction of a BMW's modules. AutoLingo for BMW speaks BMW's own diagnostic protocols instead, the language BMW's dealer tools speak, so it reaches the brakes, airbags, instrument cluster and body electronics too, with far more detail about each fault.

Questions

Where does the adapter plug in?
Into the car's OBD2 socket, under the dashboard on the driver's side.
Is there a subscription?
No. You buy the adapter once; the app and every update are free, and each update covers more BMWs.
Which phones does it work on?
iPhone, iPad and Android phones and tablets. The adapter connects over Bluetooth.

Other 6 Series models: E63 (2003–2010), F12 (2009–2018), F13 (2010–2017), F06 (2011–2018)
