325_driver 422 Report post Posted June 29, 2019 (edited) Does anyone have BMW scan tools they use at home to recommend? Do the basic OBD2 ones work? Or is it best to buy a BMW specific one, My engine check light came on today, and would be good to have a tool on hand at home for now and the future, got sick of taking it into a shop to figure out what usually turns out to be something small specifically a 2006 e91 n52 325 Edited June 29, 2019 by 325_driver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Driftit 2069 Report post Posted July 2, 2019 BMW specific is best. As the codes are usually not just read as generic. I have both. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
