Default 2008 535i - Coding New Fuel Injectors

I have installed my injectors, and have to admit that I am in no way computer savvy. I've tried 3 different downloads and still have yet to code my injectors. I need the absolute easiest and cost effective software known to man. I already have my K+DCAN cable. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks! Do you know of any specific INPA software downloads to suggest. i am appreciative of any help that I can get at this point. I'm trying to avoid towing my car to the dealership.

The dealership diagnosed my needing to replace 6 injectors, 6 spark plugs, and O2 sensor for $3700. I towed my car home, searched Google and YouTube. That gave me the info I needed for much less than half the cost.

Why do you need to "code" the car for the new injectors?

Never heard of having to code new injectors. Injectors, spark plugs and O2 sensors are dumb with no feedback, so no coding required. Injectors are on/off and controlled by the engine management computer.


Also, dealer was probably wrong.

According to several You Tube videos and the manual that I ordered, that is supposedly the last step for the injectors.
