Hi All,

Please bear with me, I have only just begun coding, and have literally just (5 minutes ago) coded by DC_Digital_V into my cluster, via NSCExpert.

I do have a question though; I have SSS Progman, which is able to connect to my car etc.. I am a little hesitant to try do anything in the software though. I get these errors when I connect my vehicle... (FYI, I have a '08, 318i, E90)

Any ideas on what I should do from here? I don't want to go stuff up my vehicle entirely.

Really? no-one?

Progman has to be one of the worst softwares to use...What are you trying to do??

Thanks for you reply, mate.
Wasn't really looking at doing anything in particular at this point (originally, I was looking at trying to code the CKM, but it appears my car doesn't support that)

What would you recommend in replacement of SSS?

I've tried using NSCexpert (which I used to code DC_digital_V), but I'm not feeling very confident with that software yet and was hoping for something a bit more idiot-proof for the time being to fiddle with my software in my vehicle.

ista/p is the new thing
good luck getting a copy of it.
Also I think it needs to be hooked up to a BMW Server.

I had an unfortunate feeling someone may say that... but what would be best in place of that?

Alrighty.. I'll stick with it.

Do you know the difference between the programming profiles? I've looked around and so far haven't found anything to tell me what programming profile I should be using..

I did try to find him, but found because of my low post count, I can't get hold of him .

Will just have to wait I guess! Thanks for the info!
