Hey bud,

Can help you tonight or tomorrow if you're still keen?

I only have a smalle r battery charger, but if you're battery is half decent, a 20 min drive pre flash plus the charger will be fine.

Did you find one?

I tried my friends,
It didn't work.

So I ordered a new one from Bimmer Software

Its on its way here now. I guess I can wait a little longer.

You guys are welcome to use mine anytime. I work in Leederville most days and it just stays in my car.

I went through one dud before I got the current one.

Thanks Craig,

I'll be coming to you if this new cable fails me.

Just curious, are the K+Dcan cables the same for LCI and Pre LCI?

ALL E9x's use the D-CAN (500 kb/s) protocol.

D-CAN (BN2000) was the successor to K-line and introduced in 03/2007. So there is some overlap for the D-CAN protocol adoption, but ALL E9x's use D-CAN.

As you have found, cables are not all the same.
A lot of robust discussion has happened regarding this topic. Some argue white vs green PCB, different chipsets, Pin7 bridge and colour of the sheath!

I'm sure the next one will work and you'll be loving the new boost in no time!

Just a seriously impressive answer! Well played.

To any further readers:

Without venturing into ICOM (Next) territory and endeavouring to obtain a proven cable across many platforms with firmware improval and not cost prohibitive I would suggest supporting BimmerGeeks.

Now that is impressive.
