PM sent for ISTA/D download

 

Hi can you send to me ista/d link

 

So... I can't do this via Esys?

 

You can use Transmitter under the external apps tab in Esys, but it provides the fault codes in Hex per ECU with no description and it can clear all DTCs.

 

Is there a some kinda table with descriptions so I can check these HEX codes and understand what they are?

 

E-SYS is not a diagnostic tool
Use ISTA/D like everybody else
Takes 5mn to install ISTA/D and it is a very powerful tool with a lot of features that allow to test modules, reset adaptations and so on

 

I guess that's right. I've heard that this ISTA thing (I don't know the exact difference between ISTA-D and ISTA-P) is around 60 GB of size... That scares me

 

ISTA-D is for diagnostics
ISTA-P is for programing

ISTA-D has a rather small footprint. 300MB for the soft itself and 10GB for the databases (Wiring diagram, articles, actual diagnostic procedures etc).

ISTA-P is big indeed. About 50 GB packed and 100 GB unpacked.

Often you find ISTA-D and ISTA-P bundled together in a 60 GB pack

 

So now there's also "ISTA+" ?

So it's total of 3 ISTAs; ISTA-D, ISTA-P and ISTA+

 

No there is not a 3rd ISTA.

ISTA+ is the name of new ISTA-D you see at the top of the Window when it runs. It was called RHEINGOLD for a while and it was only the internal development name of the soon to be ISTA+ and the Beta version was widely available after it was stolen from BMW (Well stolen by internal employees and contractors) and made available to the public. So, many cracked versions floated around and were in essence still in Beta.

ISTA+ is the second generation of ISTA-D that came up in 2009.
It was released like what 2 years ago or so...

 

Okay so, I downloaded the latest ISTA 4 (thanks to @Reclaimer for download link) installed it perfectly on my laptop and gave it a try on my mere F20 1.18i. So far, I can say that it's just an amazing software, I loved it. Connected without an issue through the basic Esys OBD-Ethernet cable, recalibrated DSC, EGS, ICM, DME and brakes, cleared all the error codes. Beautiful. I was gonna try further tests such as engine compression stuff, but the softtware said that I should remove fuel injectors and spark plugs (how is it gonna test the compression without ignition on though? ) so I aborted Thanks for your help, @Almaretto @Fooljam

So now, as expected, when I go on "Software Update" or "Vehicle Modification" under "Vehicle Management" it gives out the error something like that "requested files aren't available, contact tech support" even though there is pdszdata in Rheingold folder, it installed like that, I didn't add anything. I know this is ISTA-D, not ISTA-P.

I want to ask, what should I do to be able to use this software completely with all the modules including software stuff? Do I need to download some other different ISTA from the beginning?

Thanks in advance.

The full psdzdata is 60-62GB. If your Psdzdata folder is only something like 103 MB, it is missing stuff.

 

You shouldn't be doing all these procedures unless it's called for in the measures plan... or you have a specific reason to, and you can't do a software update using ISTA/D and an ENET cable. You need to purchase an ICOM interface ($200-400).

 

Can I hijack and ask for a link to the ISTA 4 please sounds like it has the emulator for OBD built in?

 

Ask here http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=827223. It's a heavy OBD scanner if you just want to use it as such, better buy an OBD reader that you can stach in your car.

This is a full fledge BMW diagnostic and programming tool... once you connect to the car, it takes few minutes to scan as it generates the useless fasta data that we can't use... if you are patient, go get it, it's an amazing tool for BMWs.

 

Read Error Codes

Does anyone have ISTA/D? I have e-sys but I just got an unrelated check engine warning.

Thank you in advance.

Hello all, Is it possible to read the errors via Esys and OBD cable? If possible, how can I do it? If not, how can I read the errors in any other way? I don't have ISTA-P or ICOM systems, I only have my laptop which latest Esys and PSdZData installed on and an OBD ethernet cable. Thanks in advance.
