I only have the newer version with Daten v58 but it's all in German.

I'm looking for the older English version that's still compatible with the e61 LCI models.

I'm trying to troubleshoot some SLS issues and need to raise/lower the rear.

Thanks.

I've never been able to use it because I don't think I have the right cable, but I have version 5.0.6, will that work?

I seem to recall a few members here that lowered their cars with Inpa. Can any of you give me some tips on where to click to get to the SLS screen for lowering?

I thought I didn't have the right cable initially so bought the really expensive one. Ended up being my installation was a bit off. You're more than welcome to try mine just to make sure your installation is correct. If you do have the wrong cable, I have another one that works for sure that I couldn't return.

agreed. at one point, i was making myself a flow chart of all the menus and submenus so that I could navigate through without translating everything. I'll see if i can dig it up

i bought one of the super cheap generic cables. I had to open it up and jumper two of the pins and it has worked fabulously. I think some people have also had issues with the driver installation based on the chipset in the cable.

I think you have to jumper it depending on your build date. IIRC anything older than 5/07 build date requires the jumper.

Sounds right. Mine is an 07 MY with a build date of 12/06.
