also can do - instrument cluster ,heater/air con ,central body electric and radio
there are special function available like changing language ,reading/writing and save EEPROM's,EWS CODING ,key status and so on ...
I don't doubt it can communicate with some BMW parts, but some things are not the same as BMW, for example the instrument pack and the body controller. So have you actually tested that it can do instrument cluster, heater / aircon? I question this in particular because the radios have no diagnostics, and the heater only version doesn't either, only the ATC version. Of course I hope I'm wrong, but please assure me you have tested it, not just assuming it works OK.
Regarding the OP's question. I think it's generally acknowledged, the universal code readers aren't a lot of help, because th codes are a bit too generic.
