				I purchased it costing £65 I didn't realise it won't even let you measure coolant temp without subscribing to a monthly direct debit. Really annoyed, literally has no function out of the box

				Even more annoying it used to be you paid once and that was it , now its a subscription service so you pay every year  . 

 You don't need carly to measure engine temp you can unlock the hidden menu (see you tube on how to do it ) and it will be on the dash then till you take the key out

				Honestly I was shocked that it literally has no function.
I'll check YouTube video for hidden menu 
A seriously silly thing bmw did by removing coolant temp

				Depending on the year of your car this is the gadget i have in my e90 but will work in any car (diesel after 04).

				Critical Leslie, but think of all the extra work BMW will get from customers who will overheat and not even know.   I would say from BMWs point of view it’s a great idea.

				Yea my previous car had the same problem unlike BMW Toyota diesels have headgasket issues and the affected 2.2 d4d literally every single car will have a headgasket failure. If it isn't head failure its carbon problem which also kills engine
Going back to bmw really poor from them
