I am extremely new to coding; have read up for the past 2 weeks on various forums a lot about it, yet, I feel I am very new.
I have a 525i M-tech 2008 Automatic (E60LCI) and I need the following information please:
1. I have downloaded NCS Expert - which cable will I need for coding my car?
2. Where do I buy the cable from?
3. Is there any DIY Guideline document for E60LCI Coding?
4. Can my 525i M-tech be mapped onto a 530i M-tech or 535i M-tech?
I would really appreciate if someone can help me move forward.
Thanks

Hi and welcome to the community! I have just started looking into coding myself. I ordered the following cable: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISA...E:L:OC:GB:1123
I can't answer your other questions at the moment until I get the cable and start the coding.
Once I do I'll be sure to update you in case you can't find the info.

Mate, thanks for your reply on the cable type; I had sent out a query to a friend who is bimmer technician and he replied as follows:

You have a 2008 and those cables will not work for you they only work up to 2007. you need this cable for 2008-2012. http://www.ebay.com/...#ht_2776wt_1185
As far as coding goes, it's been discussed a lot here and it's something very easy to do. It looks harder than it is.

It's probably gonna cost you a lot of time, but all info you've ever wanted is in this topic: https://5series.net/forums/topic/108...ert-code-mods/ (my results on page 37 post #550)
For every other bit of info find your way at www.bmwcoding.com
I'm new to coding also, but managed to code a lot of things in one week. Once you have the right cable it's a matter of reading and carefully trying.
Your questions 1,2 and 3 are answered in that topic, your fourth requires reprogramming of the ECU, I'm pretty sure this can't be done with NCSEXPERT

525 can be 'converted' to a 530.

That link is for 3 series, but the concept is the same.
