ISTA D installation

Post by iamwestone » Thu May 23, 2024 2:59 pm

I've seen a lot of mentions of ISTA D or ISTA+ on these forums and it sounds like it's a very helpful tool. Does anyone know how I can get it in the UK please?

Usually find copies on the usual auction sites. It won’t be a legit copy as BMW doesn’t supply it to the public.

You’ll need a laptop and adapter cable as well.

I lost count of how many times I tried and failed to download and run not only ISTA, but also ESYS. I came to the opinion that unless you are very confident/competent with all things IT, the money is better spent at my friendly local BMW independent workshop.
