That garage is crap then. If you have an E60, an LM2, the wiring kit and all the lights there is no way it won't work. Take your car elsewhere - ideally, enlist the help of a fellow forum member with experience in this department.

You just continue to impress me everytime I read your posts. Did you make it back yet?

Yeah I am back for another 6 days - it has been so great to not have to waste all my money away with the euro/pound/dollar conversion.

I'd be curious as to how they came to the conclusion that the LM2 is not compatible. Will you ask the shop what program/hardware they are using?

Well, not being familiar with Autologic I don't know what to say. With the comparably rudimentary (albeit effective) tools I use, I doubt such limitations would arise.

They say the car is not talking to the module so they cant access it.
