This is a full in-depth guide on how to use the app Bimmerlink for your BMW, and showcasing everything you can do with the app. I will be using my 2016 BMW M2 as an example of everything that can be done in Bimmerlink, and I will be going step-by-step, and button-by-button to show you what you can do with the app.
As a general overview, BimmerLink is a great app that allows you to read the car, from temperatures and gauges, to check engine lights and fault codes.
There is a related app called BimmerCode that we will not be covering in this video. BimmerCode is another great BMW app that allows you to code and change features inside of the car to tailor it more towards your style!
To be able to use BimmerLink, you will need a Bluetooth adapter for the OBD port, and here's my recommendation for an adapter that I've used for 3 years.

How did you fixed Output SL_2_R defective? is the ony error I have in bimmerlink and I can't find a solution!

If you clear an error and it returns, or it just doesn’t clear at all, it means it’s an active issue that should be looked into. For me most of my errors were due to a faulty tail light ground cable. Once I had that fixed my errors were permanently gone. Until I did, they kept returning. That code indicates one of your right rear lights has an issue. There SHOULD also be an error on your Idrive. You have to narrow down which light bulb. Activate all the lights until one flags on your Idrive as defective and you’ll have an answer. Taillight, brake, reverse, turn signal, fog light(this one is easy to miss as many don’t realize it exists. it also activates on very hard braking, look up brake force display).

Hi does this app provide the transmission temperature? Apologies if I missed that part of the video

@BertskiZPolski Ай бұрын

Yes it does! It’s one of the sensors I always have active on my dashboard.

@@flexnsa of course! Do bare in mind though, the car itself needs to have a readable temperature sensor in the transmission. Any modern BMW will, but some old models may not.
