• Transition:

  BMW is encouraging users to transition to the newer ICOM Next C tool, which is compatible with the newer ISTA/P software.
• Why the Change:

  BMW is likely moving to newer technology to improve diagnostic capabilities and streamline the programming process.

The Ista updates after that date will not work anymore for ICOM A1 & A2 without license, only ICOM NEXT will work.

To use ISTA+ V4.50 or later version with VXDIAG BMW scanner, you will need a valid license.
