Not entirely sure what you are looking for (fault diagnosis/correction, feature coding, etc.) but I have been using TWG Automotive in Frimley for my BMWs for the last few years and have only positive experiences to report (as have others on here).

Their phone number is 01276 22733 - you could always call, explain what you want and see how they can help.

Whether they can or not, I hope you find what you are looking for. thumbup

Tried those guys before. Wasn't entirely impressed to be honest.
To answer the first question it's to code in some options available, lowering the roof from the key, folding mirrors etc.

Have a look at http://www.mycarly.com/product/bmw-app/
It's a phone app which together with a cable lets you programme loads of options, I've used I'd in my Z4 and it's very easy to use.

I would also have a look at bimmercode, I have used it a couple of times on my X6 and it's worked a treat.

Thanks for the suggestions. Bimmercode doesn't cover the e93 series so I'll take a look at the Carly option. Thanks again.

So..I bought the Carly WiFi OD2 adapter and the app for the iphone. All very easy, coded in the folding mirrors, electronic speedo readout in centre of the speedo display and can lower the roof from the key. £100.00 all in and can use on other/future cars so a bit of a bargain I think.
Thanks again for the suggestions.

I was about to say if you're not too far I'd come and give you a hand with Carly. I think it's great. Good for diagnostics of all systems too. Mine's paid for itself many times over.
