    Excellent. Worked a treat. As advised, I first took photos of my original BMW dealer service history before anything else. I then connected the laptop / OBD2 lead / software, then typed in the original BMW dealer service records, and then added my own service (Engine Oil) and selected Independent service, clicked on `Write to Car` and everything went great (as per your well detailed video). Thank you so much for making your perfect video and sharing it. 😁

      @@germanbmw1001 Hi, as advised in the video, the free version does wipe out your previous service history on the iDrive, unless you pay over £1000 for the professional version of the siftware.
      Write down and/or take photos of all your previous service history on your iDrive, as you will be required to re-write all the details back into the iDrive, then your latest service on the car.
      However, if you ever get a future BMW service, their system will apparently delete all the service history on the iDrive (as it was all loaded on with a non-BMW system). Listen carefully to the video.

    Does this work on a 2017 BMW 2 Series 218D M Sport Coupe?
    I have the full service history of the car on paper form but nothing has been inputted to the digital service history: is this perhaps that all annual services have been carried out by independent garages and not BMW? I asked this question to the garage that did my last service and they said they don't have access to do what you say in the video, reckon only BMW can update the service digitally with specialized software - crazy right?

    Nice, but typically on OEM services the microfilter also will be replaced with each oil service. If the car ever goes to BMW and gets connected to ISTA+/AIR online, your offline service history will be removed and thus not be visible anymore. By the way, this car did 400km in 1 year?

    • @TheHunterHofman
      @TheHunterHofman  3 роки тому +5

      Thank you and I wasn’t aware of the microfilter being replaced simultaneously, I’ll look into that. I was aware of the fact that the offline service history will be removed, yes.
      The car has indeed barely been driven that year.

    Fascinating stuff. But cant you just add your own service details without having to re-add the previous history? When you 'write to car' at 4:30 couldn't you just de-select the option 'erase old service data' and when you write your own service maybe your new info will follow the previous info?

      Whatever you upload, gets overwritten yes. So you first compile your service history manually, save that, then upload to the car.

      Perhaps because it’s a different iDrive system? It does indeed remove the old service history and overwrites it with the newly entered service history. If your service history was done by a BMW garage/dealership, then they can input the actual service history again. Does it show the exact same images as in my video? It does detect the car for instance?
