You mean that they changed the ECU? I mean the LMA module with a new LM2 ? Because i have the same problem, i have an 10.2006 E90 and i have FRM module, not FRM2, i will have to change the FRM with FRM2 for welcome light working?, or i can just make an software upgrade to FRM to FRM2?
And one more question, maybe is dummy , but ... , what means LCI ? How do i know if my car is LCI or not?

Can anyone access their LMA in INPA ?
I can access it in NCS but not INPA
funny thing is the file is present in the EDIABAS ECU - it's apparently the wrong version...mine's from 22 June 2010 -- maybe someone can shoot me their (older) file if available so I can try...
here's the error I get:

I get EXACTLY the same error as you with INPA Andy (I have a preLCI but the LM2).
NCS works ok though... I have managed to code my fog lights to come on with the welcome lights

LCI= life cycle impulse aka facelift. I had the same question about "upgrading" my old LM - but it was a no go.

Ideally, would be nice to access the diagnostics as well. Maybe Blood or NoQuarter can inform us if they have INPA access ?

INPA works for me just fine, it complains that the files are newer than expected but works none the less. I use DIS v57 for diagnostics as INPA is starting to show it`s age, BMW standard tools v2.8 is the one to find but I can not find it anywhere.

INPA works for Me as well. I do get some sort of warning about a language mismatch or something like that but I still use it.
I use the INPALOAD executable. INPA does not work for me and I don't understand the difference.

I just copied the 3 folders to my C: drive using this DIY :
NCS_DIY.pdf
Can I use my current cable to use DIS as well ? What do you use DIS for Blood ?
...I'm close to information overload !
