NOTE1: URL Links are in BLUE and pictures are links to larger images.

NOTE2: Click here for Getting Started Guides, Tips, & Cheat Sheets

1. Software Overview and Requirements:

This guide serves Fxx, Ixx, and Gxx-series vehicles. For E-series, different software and cable are used. Complete Software & Interface Overview.

Supported Chassis Code Overview

Prerequisites:
  • Windows 7+ Computer.
  • E-Sys = Main Coding Software
  • PSdZData Lite(~2.5 GB) = ECU Data Files. Works for VO & FDL Coding.
  • Bimmer Utility = Provides License (ie Activation), FDL-Coding mapping, Cheat Codes (Section 7), & other optimization.
  • Connection Interface = ENET Cable (OBDII to RJ45 Ethernet) or ICOM. For computers without an ethernet port, you can use USB-to-ethernet adapters


2. Software Installation:

NOTE: Links never change. The latest versions are usually found below.
  • Add a comment to the thread if links down or you need newer versions
E-Sys - Install Instructions - v.15.pdf (Guide courtesy of member Shawnsheridan)

Bimmer Utility - Mapping 4.35.42 - Only and recommended solution
  • Auto-updated and supports the latest mapping for the most accurate coding experience
    • Purchase directly from the developer's website.
  • E-sys 3.39.1 - Used with Bimmer Utility or alone for Programming and VO coding.

Latest PSdZData_Lite (~2.5 GB) WORKS FOR ALL FDL CODING & VO CODING
  • Use this guide to determine your I-Step.
  • You only need one lite version for coding that is equal to or greater than your I-Step.
    • NOTE: If you get a "Not Found [C012]" error when "Read Coding Data," it is time to update.
  • Do NOT merge. DELETE old PSdZData folder & REPLACE w/ new PSdZData folder.


By Resource:
  1. NCD / CAFD: Read *.ncd files offline and easily search for a function, viewing current settings as well as other options
  2. NCD Compare: Load *.ncd files using Folder icons or drag & drop and then the far right button initiates compare. Popup showing Left vs right values which you can highlight and copy if you choose. It also highlights *.ncd trees differences in red & you can scroll up and down.
  3. Decrypt CAFD: not just for CFDs. It also works for other Psdzdata files (eg FAFP).
  4. FA / FP: viewer; tool includes mapping (eg 430 Inter Exter mirror anti dazzle). You can search loaded FA or entire FAFP (ie available options). FP viewer allows you to view options by Vehicle Profile (FP) without loading FA (Vehicle Order).
  5. FA Compare: like #2, but comparing fas.
  6. FA-CAFD: You load individual ECUs *.ncd and can see how FA additions will affect (ie "what-if).
  7. SVT-CAFD: You load the entire saved SVT file and see how FA changes will affect (ie "what-if).

Hi, please could I have a link to ISTA-D 4.39.2x (no license file required) - for E90 2008.
I have ISTA-D running with the cable and all but the diagnostic plans don't work. Something with my install.
Would really appreciate it.

I asked for ISTA-p a while back but that's because I misunderstood + vs P.
Simple engine light again, previously this was a misfire, few years back, and an easy fix.

Good Afternoon All,
New member here. Looking to sort out a 4x4 light on a 2004 BMX X3. Honestly a bit confusted on exactly what software would be best for troubleshooting and testing Transfer case actuator and remaining bits of the system on an e83. Seems like ISTA+ would be best? What says the group, and what USB dongle would be best? If ITSA+, where may I find a link/instructions?

Hello, together,
Problems here with my EGR Valve. Would be grateful for a link to do further diagnostics (above BimmerLink) on my E70 xdrive 30d and to be abled to reset values after potential replacement.

Is there a cable abled to connect E and F series or do I need USB and ENET?

Thanks in advance

OK, so PC all set up, ready to go, since this is US 2025 with Full LED Lights with Cornering Lights. I want decode they function as they do in germany, I read the old notes on how to do it, but what do you think? Do I still follow those, seem really outdated, or am I selecting modules, and just search till i find it with app?

Hi @shawnsheridan , Uwe from Germany. Just saw this information on the net

to activate asla in my X3 G01. As i read through this forum you have helped someone out using e-sys, but i dont get a clue how to prodeed, what to buy and install and what i need else to get it done or at least start to get it done. I would be grateful for any recommendations for reading, seeing, buying, installing?

Hi, @shawnsheridan, Could I please get a link to e-sys version 3.36.x and a full PSdZData (for an F32, if it matters)? Thanks much in advance, and if there's any way I can send something in appreciation of your relentless efforts here, please let me know!

Hi @shawnsheridan - I just pm'd you on a bimmerpost, but will send it here as well, in case you don't read it. You had helped me back in 2020 to get e-sys to code my trailer hitch.
I am removing my trailer hitch and thus need to de-code it. To code it, you had mentioned "Add 235 to FA and VO Code HU_NBT and AHM." to code it. I'm assuming to de-code, it would be in reverse - I would just remove 235 in FA and VO Code HU_NBT and AHM?
Also, is e-sys the easiest program to de-code? If so, can you provide the best version to de-code + PSdZData, if needed. This is for an F15 X5.
I appreciate the help.
Thanks!
