Achtung, you were able to update your software on the vehicle using this? Can you basically control all coding with this? Nothing crazy like Blood is doing but you can disable DRL's etc....?

Wow, that's sweet! Where did you find the updated software for your car?

so if I buy this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/260904994942

I can install the software, use the USB cable, and register a new battery on my own on a 2005 545i?

Checking my battery with INPA i inadvertently registered a new battery while i havn't changed it.
Anyone an idea what the consequence of this could be ? Shorter live ? Or other electrical problems ?
Couldn't find a way to undo it.
