     Does anyone out there in the U.S. have a BMW key reader, and if so how well does it work? My boss wants to get one for the front office when checking in customers. Where is the best price/place to purchase one? I don't want to be burned by buying an inferior unit. Any help would be appreciated.

     Isn't more cheaper, secure and easy to order a key fro BMW? And then you can be able to enable/disable the key with Maxisys.

     It's not for programming keys, it's for service/maintenance info stored on the remote. The service writer inserts the key when they check in a customer, and it prints out a report with all vehicle info and services that are currently due on the vehicle.

     Ohhh. Ok.. But for doing that you need a Key reader. I think that this is will not be able so soon. Autel as got more important and needed functions to put in Maxisys.

    He is not asking to program key he is asking what bmw use when when a customer books in there bmw they can read what service is due from the key.

    I think you will find that only main dealer can do this.


    Thanks Mike
