patsbimmer1 Posted January 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Yea, $200 for something that will retract EPB's, codes and graphs on top of retrieving BMW specific codes is a good deal. This is tempting but the last thing I really need is another scan tool at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
