I believe your car comes with a dipstick no? Ffor your engine oil level there is two parts you need the physical part as well to monitor the oil. Just because you got something to show up the CID doesn't mean it will actually work. In the U.S. 2004/2005 models have dipsticks so i'm assuming you have one. Sorry if I'm incorrect.

Hi,

Which ECU module has AUX (or AUXIN) located in?
I see that it's in the .TRC file after reading CAS. Then, when I go to individual ECUs, none of them has AUX parameter.

thanks in advance.

CAPPL is not in the list of ECUs for my car ('06 530i with build date of March 2005).
LMA is there, I will try using that...

It is not LMA this the light switch module. It's either M-ASK or CAPPL
And which AUX parameter are you trying to use/change? did you read about any of this first?

Then you must have M-ask. The LMA does NOT contain the information you need.
