    Thanks Allan. Situation is like this.

    My car is March 1999 with High cluster / Country = Japan

    Donor car was February 1998 with High cluster / Country =NZ

    I tried with Tom from the forum to do the recoding using PA Soft 1.4 through the OBD 20pin port in the engine hood.

    We could see the IKE module and we could also see the two different sets of data (IKE and LCM show different VIN number and mileage as expected)

    We tried to reset the ''new'' cluster to default (Mileage=000000km) in order to change the VIN but none of the two was possible.

    We are now stuck. In my opinion there are two possibilities:

    1. The donor cluster is as you say SUPER early version and cannot be recoded.

    2. The PA Soft cannot do the trick and I need to use another software.

    By the way I did try to do the trick using INPA, but I only managed to go half the way through. The program was asking me the ZME...codes or something like that, I did not have them handy so I stopped.

    What do you reckon I should do? Should I look for a donor cluster dates 1999 or later?

    Cheers.

    Mine is 1999 but has facelift lights and widescreen.

    ONLY reason I might sell is because I get a lot of pressure from my accountant to get a less thirsty car. This is my daily company car and company pays for my petrol. Now new rules have put a Capex 10l/min.

    Do you want me to send you some photos?

    146000km and absolutely MINT CONDITION. Needs only new rocker cover gasket.

    Just bumping this thread, has a fresh VTNZ WOF and is running beautifully. Can't really see the point in going much less than 9k for a perfectly running 850i as low k ones with heaps of problems have gone for the ~12k mark.

    Hi there would you consider swap with either my 328ci 1999 mint condition or 525i 2003 also great condition and cash your way?

    20 pin obd is the best way despite the fact you also have a obd2 under the steering wheel.

    2 things from my side. Correct spark plugs are bkr6equp (3199)

    Not sure if something else will work properly.

    Also I have a spare MAF brand new if you want to make a test. You need to allow time though because your ecu takes a while to adapt the new readings. Good luck with it. Cheers
