BMW ista Windows 10 install:

Setup on Windows 10 64-bit:

After the Windows 10 update (which failed the first two attempts because it turned out the BIOS needed an update first) most applications were fine.

F4 software serial number. By simply revisiting the COM port settings for my K + DCAN USB to set back to COM9 , minimum buffer sizes and minimum latency Rheingold ran perfectly.

Loader V3.2 and ISTA-P was a bit more tricky. I re-ran the Network Config Tool. I tried Loader V4.3. No joy. However I did it nicely and ISTA-P runs nicely too, and with the excellent Loader V4.3 .

The Windows Networking and Networking Toolkit for Networking and Networking.

—> The setting was to go into Network Settings , select the USB Loopback which has been renamed ” Ethernet 2 ” and rename it to “USB” then go into its settings just like you would ENET lead and set the IPV4 IP to 169.254.0.8 with a mask of 255.255.0.0

Tip: ista p install help

Question: Where (what path) do you place the SDP contents to support flashing from ISTA? Also, where do you place the BLP contents as well?

Answer: Put the two folders data and data_swi in C:RheingoldPSdZ

And registry:
x86

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREBMWGroupISPIRheingold]
“BMW.Rheingold.Programming.ExpertMode”=”true”
“BMW.Rheingold.Programming.Enabled”=”true”
“BMW.Rheingold.Programming.PsdzDataPath”=”C:RheingoldPSdZdata_swi”

Part 3: BMW icom cable for ista

This part is for those who are looking for a decent bmw icom cable: K+DCAN or ENET or ICOM A2/ ICOM Next

In summary,

It depends on your purpose (diagnostic or coding or programming) and model (Exx or Fxx or others).

For Coding, you need different Tools, NCS Expert / SP-Daten for E-Series and E-Sys / PSdZData for F-Series.

All Diagnosis and Coding can be done with cheap DCAN Cable for E-Series and cheap ENET Cable for F-Series.

For Programming (Flashing ECU’s with new Firmware), then you need ISTA/P for for both E-Series and F-Series cars, or you can use WinKFP for E-Series and E-Sys for F-Series. For E-Series Programming, you will need an ICOM, but for F-Series Programming, you can use ENET Cable.

For Exx- Series:

Interface = K+DCAN Cable (OBDII to USB) or ICOM

ECU Data Files = SP-Daten

NCS Expert = Coding Software

WinKFP = Programming (Flashing) Software

EDIABAS = Low-Level ECU Communication Software used by NCS Expert & WinKFP

For Fxx- / Ixx- / Gxx-Series, Mini, & Rolls-Royce:

Interface = ENET Cable (OBDII to RJ45 Ethernet) or ICOM

ECU Data Files = PSdZData

E-Sys = Coding Software

E-Sys = Programming (Flashing) Software

About: BMW ICOM

ICOM A (also ICOM A2, ICOM A3, ICOM Next A): main interface

ICOM B: adapter for programming multimedia in E series

ICOM C: adapter for old BMW with round 20 pin diagnostic plug

ICOM D: adapter for motorcycles

ISTA+ (AKA Rheingold or ISTA-D)

DIAGNOSTICS for All Vehicles

PROGRAMMING for F/I/G/RR & MINI, but requires an ICOM

ISTA-P

PROGRAMMING traditionally for all chassis, but is being phased out by August 2017, except for legacy E-series.

Replacement ECU’s must be NEW

YOU HAVE TO KNOW before you buy ICOM A2 or ICOM A3 or ICOM Next:

ICOM A vs ICOM A2 vs ICOM A3

Modified ICOM A2 for vehicles with OBD access receives a significantly more powerful processor and more storage capacity. And robust aluminium case will help to avoid damage when using in harsh environments. It works better in cooling, runs faster and works more stable, not easier broken than older ICOM A.

ICOM A3 can program all units for all BMW series expect media system, and work more stable and has stronger compatibility than ICOM A2, A1.

ICOM NEXT vs the old ICOM

-> much faster in BMW F and G series .

-> supports gigabit Ethernet too to be future proof, there currently is not gigabit Ethernet protocol defined yet for autos. Also it has USB3.0 instead of USB2.0 and a better wifi card.

ICOM A3 vs ICOM Next

BMW ICOM A3 HW 1.38: http://www.uobdii.com/wholesale/BMW-icom-a3-with-software.html

BMW ICOM NEXT A + B + C HW 1.40: http://www.uobdii.com/wholesale/BMW-icom-next-a-b-c-wifi.html

please help me with some advice!

Reply 1: Both of these have the same hardware. None of them are clones of anything also. A3 is fully china version of ICOM, there is no original version looking like this crap. NEXT is just looking as genuine NEXT, but with old A1/A2 hardware inside, like A3.

Reply 2: I recommend buying an original Icom next. It is priced roughly at 500 euro. Take in consideration that you will probably work on cars that are worth 30-40k euro or maybe more and if your chinese icom fails you even once, you will be spending a lot of money on a bricked ecu.

Reply 3: You can have a Icom Next HQ clone if you don’t have much budget of it. This tool handles multiprogramming and coding quite nicely, much faster in BMW F and G series and if flashing the complete vehicle. It supports gigabit Ethernet too to be future proof, there currently is not gigabit Ethernet protocol defined yet for autos. will be compatibility for future cars. Also, it has a better wifi card and USB3.0 instead of USB2.0 (USB 3.0 is theoretically more than ten times faster than USB 2.0. We need usb 2.0 or usb 3.0 flash drive formatted with FAT32.)

ICOM NEXT A vs ICOM A2

ICOM Next wins in price!!!

2019 ICOM Next A+B+C price: 359.00 usd

ICOM A2+B+C price: 519.00 usd

ICOM Next A wins in performance!!

Bmw Standard Tools 2 12 Windows 10 Download Full

->handles multiprogramming and coding quite nicely

BMW ICOM Next wins in speed!!

->faster startup and standard wifi

Sewart keygen. ->much faster in BMW F and G series .

->much faster if flashing the complete vehicle
(Flashing of NBT is not faster with icom next its same like icom A and A2)

Next wins in future cars!

->will be compatibility for future cars

-> supports gigabit Ethernet too to be future proof, there currently is not gigabit Ethernet protocol defined yet for autos.

ICOM Next wins in connection!

-> has a better wifi card
->has USB3.0 instead of USB2.0

note: USB 3.0 vs. USB 2.0

The USB 2.0 standard offers a theoretical maximum signaling rate of 480 megabits per second, while USB 3.0 defines a maximum rate of 5 gigabits per second. In other words, USB 3.0 is theoretically more than ten times faster than USB 2.0

We need usb 2.0 or usb 3.0 flash drive formatted with FAT32.
