Any idea what hardware/software is being used to make these changes? I've seen comments about a "INPA K+DCAn" OBD2 to USB cord that goes for around $30 to about $100 (not sure the $30=$100 cord) and software named "NCS Expert 3.1.0" - apparently available for free. People talk about doing things like this with these but it also seems like the risk level is not terribly low.
When I have an issue out of warranty including when my battery requires replacement I will probably do something. If I had to do it now I would probably spend ~$300 on Bavarian Technic hardware/software (for 3 cars at this price). It would not do all this but would read/clear codes and do simple things like battery regisration.
