Hi guys,

I have a Bluetooth module that plugs into the OBD port. Does anyone know a good app that runs on Android that allows fault codes to be read? Ideally, it'll be able to clear the codes too.

I've heard mixed reactions to Carly and BimmerLink so your experiences would be greatly appreciated.

I have a 2003 Z4 E85 so it would definitely need to work with that!

Thanks! :)

I wouldn’t bother. Get a proper BMW specific code reader (I suggested a Creator 310+ on your other thread).

You really do need a BMW specific code reader if you are going to get involved with serious maintenence, you will waste a lot of time with generic codes that don’t full highlight the issues.
