FOXWELL NT510 Elite fit for BMW
Has anyone used the FOXWELL NT510 Elite fit for BMW as a scan tool? I don't have a laptop computer not that I couldn't buy one. Then the cord ($50) and then setting up the computer with BMW with ISTA+ ISTA/P and that is way beyond my expertise as far as computers go. All I want to do is fix little things that go wrong, change the oil, and brakes, and reset reminders that come up on the dash! Simple things like the dealer would do. I know my limits as to what I can do. Or are there better ones out there that would service needs?
Thanks, and yes, I have looked in the forum and there is my confusion. Dan

I’ve got this but not sure if there’s much difference between the two I haven’t had the NT510 in my hand.
https://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-3...ini-scan-tool/ To this point it’s done what I’ve needed and more than what you’re looking to do. First I started with a peake then went to a creator c310 and still needed more for air bag and stuff so the schwaben by foxwell has fit the bill for what I’ve needed to this point. |

That said, 5 years ago, Foxwell's tech support absolutely sucked. I'm not sure it is any better these days.

Use the Foxwell 510 elite for my BMWs works great. The only thing is that for software updates you need an intel computer. I am an Apple guy so I had to buy a cheap dell laptop on eBay.
