For which vehicle is this for?

If it's for one of your BMWs, an OBD2 scanner will only show you anything that is emissions related. It will not show you any BMW factory fault codes that are stored.

Alright I'll give that a try, I borrowed a wifi OBD dongle. If not guess I'll have to get one of those BAV TECH software + cable.

Bmwhat works for codes. Its coding side is limited compared to ncsexpert. Torque can also pull codes.

However DIS found more codes that both apps didn't show
