That said, you don't need a compatible cable you can manually input the VIN of your car in it as well and it will load everything related to that car in the session you will open. |

Type in your VIN Vehicle Management > Repair/Maintenance > Product Structure or Text Search It's much slower than newtis.info but at least the information is there still.

So the 2017 posts above say you need Windows XP, but that was long ago. So if I don't care for now about hooking up to my car for diagnostics and just want repair instructions, can I download the ISTA Rheingold to a Windows 10 machine?

You can download it from Bimmergeeks download too if you are just aiming for older cars. Their version is fairly older but I dont' remember the actual date of their system.
If you look hard enough at rutracker.org you will find the latest and greatest.

The computer dumb guy (me) needs some more guidance. I downloaded the 9.89 GB zipped file from the Bimmergeeks link, which said it was a WINRar archive file. I clicked on it and the WINRar pane opened and I clicked on "Export to". That seemed to work and I now have a 20.9 GB file called "ISTA(D)-Install." That folder has two subfolders - "Pre-Install" and "Rheingold." "Pre-install" has about 5 .exe files. Rheingold has a bunch of files with weird file extensions and a few pdf user manuals in various languages. So I assume I am ok so far (?), but I literally have no clue what to do next. I tried to watch a YouTube video but it was hard to follow. Is there a plain-English "how to" someplace that will get me from where I am now to something usable? Thanks for any help you can give me.

"The connection to one of the required databases could not be established. Please check DSS #00046632EN for further trouble shooting." Seems like a common problem, but the solutions are unclear or seems outdated. Anybody know what I did wrong? The only thing I did not do was when I first launched ITSA to complete setup in the step where you paste the long license info, it asks for my name and email (which supplies a BMW email suffix), an explanation of what I am doing and and a dealer number. I left that blank (besides the license) because the instructions did not mention it. But nothing on Google about the error code mentions that stuff as an issue. Help? |

It’s both annoying and whole heartedly a dick move. You can subscribe to BMw TIS and pay the money, then download as many thing as you want within the timeframe, but that’s all I’ve found this far. Someone else might be able to chime in but if you don’t have ISTA, then you are kinda SOL. -Duke |

Yeah sorry guys like I mentioned earlier in the thread I don't have this TIS anymore. I have instead obtained ISTA (Rheingold) online. Unfortunately doesn't seem like Bimmergeeks has it anymore I recommend you search the web. Pretty sure it can be found via torrent.

As a follow up, I found this: https://workshop-manuals.com/ - has all the TIS information, but is a bit clunky to use.
