I wasn't really trying to comment on the BT tool. I don't have it and I don't know if it is a good system or not. I was just commenting on how the codes are posted and cleared. I use a cheap HF reader sometimes but more recently have used Torque on a Samsung tablet and a OBDII to bluetooth adapter to read and clear codes. I haven't gotten any codes on my bimmer, I'd done this on a Suzuki and a couple Toyotas in the last year. I've also done it on at least one Mazda and a Plymouth that was so old it was OBDI (so it's a different process).

I also have and have used NCSExpert and I understand INPA will read and clear codes but I've never tried it. My other devices are easier to use. My main use for NCSExpert was to get my top to go up and down with the remote (I don't have comfort access).
