What’s BimCOM
BimCOM is diagnostic tool for BMW/Mini vehicles. It supports all vehicles since 1996 using OBD2 or BMW-20 pin diagnostic socket. BMW Motorrad (motorcycles) support is in very early stages (please see BMW Motorrad coverage). BimCOM is easy to use. It uses VAG-COM-like user interface, but easy to use for people familiar with dealer tools such as BMW ISTA/D, ISTA/P, BMW DIS/GT1. BimCOM comes with OBD2 to USB interface and is designed to work on Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7/8/10 or Linux or Mac OS/X (using Wine emulation). Hardware requirements are very low compared to dealer-tools.
