For simple engine diagnosis, emissions readiness, OBD code reader/clearing, freeze frame data, realtime PIDs, logging, gauges, etc., I’d get OBD Fusion and a Bluetooth LE OBD2 interface.At around $680 it covers every make and model. If you have multiple cars in your family (like me), the “best value” is the Autel Maxidas DS808.

It does everything that BMW ISTA/INPA and Foxwell NT510/NT520 can do but the advantage is that it comes loaded with software for all Makes and Models (Asian, European, American). This is a professional level diagnostics tool that mechanics and repair facilities will use.
It is an EXCELLENT scanner, and mine has already paid for itself many times over in the ~9 months I’ve owned it. The BMW-software for the NT530 is EXCELLENT, and provides access to not only the engine computer, but virtually ALL computers on the car – Engine, transmission, brakes, ABS, Traction Control, Air Bags, Audio, Navigation, Climate Control, Locks, Alarm, etc. The expensive, professional-level scanners typically provide access to most, or all, manufacturers OEM-specific information, but those scanners also typically cost $2-5K.

This like having a shop manual on your laptop. Ista D diagnostics and guided troubleshooting all in English The most powerful tool for coding there is.

You can do any type of coding with Inpa well beyond the canned Inpa is there Engineering development tool. Ista D is what BMW used in there dealerships for years. Ista D and Inpa toghtether will do more than anything else. BMW INPA or ISTA Software (Free) on a windows laptop and a €15 K+D Can cable.Fortunately it’s about the same cost as all but the cheapest ones, but those probably don’t work anyway. it kind of sucks (I have 2 useless bluetooth adapters), but it also prevents people from bricking modules using a flaky adapter. Apparently like 70% of the packets were getting dropped, so they decided not to support them. Has to be their adapter – the reason is the QC of most of the generic adapters is poor. Honestly the only thing generic OBD2 code readers are good for is to check emission monitor readiness and to see if someone reset the check engine light. P-codes are nearly useless for diagnosing cars. Aim: Want to purchase a BMW E90 OBD2 reader device that also lets me reset codes.
