Can you use the Bimmergeeks ProTool to test DISA Actuation?

Anyone here with some experience with the Bimmergeeks ProTool?

I know it has a pretty extensive list of diagnostics and coding features that you can use. I already have the app and all the cables.

My question I guess is two parts.

1. Is there a feature with this tool that allows to you test the DISA valves to make sure they actuate like they should.

2. If the DISA valves do actuate fine, are there any worries about sealing issues that could cause problems? I know on old DISA valves on some of the older cars, there was an O-ring that you could replace on the manifold. With this newer style, I don't see that aside from the big green O-ring that is at the base of the DISA valve. Then you have the same green rubber material that runs along the sides and top of the housing.

If my valves test out fine, do I need to worry about any of the soft rubber material that is around valve body itself? Mine are not horrible, but they don't look brand new either.

I just didn't know if the most important part of the valve being functional is just the actuation.

It looks like within the next couple of weeks, I may be able to take a day or two off of work. If the weather holds up, I want to install the intake and tune.

Thanks for any insight.
