Apparently Carly now charges an annual 'subscription fee' ($60?). I got a Foxwell 520 handheld scan tool that seems to be able to do most things the Carly full-on app does, including programming, registering the battery etc. You can also load other cars' software for $60 for each additional model car. Reviews are very good and so far I have been able to check all systems, clear a few old codes etc and it seems quite legit to me.
Hi... So did that work to program the roof and fold mirrors etc too? I already have an obd2 reader which works fine on Bluetooth... But I really need something that can program the roof etc... Do I really need to but a Carly or can I use my current obd2 reader with some other software?
I have several, foxwell 520, Carly ISTA and INPA..
The most expensive, least user friendly and most comprehensive are the bmw tools ISTA and INPA...
Foxwell and Carly are partly complementary..neither does a full set of the other...Carly is more cosmetic , foxwell more industrial
Neither are as rich as the bmw tools but much much more user friendly and much less likely to b@gg*r things up..
For maintenance related tasks foxwell is generally better, if you want to sequence your Christmas tree whilst braking then Carly..
