Anyone in the Sarasota area that can read codes for me?

Hey so I just bought a 2011 335i. The cable I use on my 2006 330i isn't working on this car. Not sure the reason, trying to do some research. But on Carly for BMW it connects but scanning for codes says No ECUs found. Deep OBD also can't communicate with the car. Title hasn't been transferred and no plates yet so I can't drive it to a shop yet.

Just looking for someone that can pull any codes so I can see any issues and buy whatever cable you're using. Getting long crank so I'm assuming HPFP. Appreciate it! Willing to buy you lunch or coffee or throw you some cash.

You need K+DCAN cable to read 2011.

Carly should find ECUs w/o issues if you are using the WiFI dongle.

Check to see if the car has a JB4 installed that would prevent Carly from communicating.

If you are using an Android Carly with cable the above does not apply and as mentioned you need the other cable.
