I have heard there have been several updates to the e60's gearbox software.
How do I do this myself, and is it safe to do so? (I have a K+DCAN cable & my e60 is a DEC 2004 530d msport auto)

4.Choose "comfort mode"

6.Choose "enter ZUSB" type your ZBNumber wich already find it.
7.Choose "enterVIN" and enter your 7 digit VIN.

I don't have DIS or Progman, I only have INPA & NCSExpert. Is this the only method of updating gearbox software?

I may have to explore the software you mentioned first, then I'll give this a go.
How long does the coding take for this update alone - will it require a battery charger?
