Nice Ryan. It definitely modernized your dash binnacle. 👍

Yeah I love it!! Now I think I need to replace the ignition coils and plugs but thankfully that looks easy and costs less than $100 total

I have same cluster for e60. Some minor things like all ECUs have the wrong milage and battery registration would also be messed up. All ECUs have now 100 miles and the DME has milage of OEM cluster and it won't move until you get old cluster in. Still great cluster :)

@RDsRCReviews 5 месяцев назад

Yeah I noticed that. I use a Carly OBD2 so I saw the mileage error. It took me 5 times to register the new battery but the app finally said it was successful. I hope it was. So far I've had no issues with the battery but it's only been a month or so it's too early to know. I need to check the battery and make sure it is registering. What did you have to do to get the battery to register?

@myfrankfurt 5 месяцев назад

@@RDsRCReviewsThanks for the feedback. I use INPA and Ista/Rheingold with a notebook. But I registered my battery 3 weeks before I got the cluster. My 525i is 20 years old and most likely with me until it dies one of the other way. Not perfect with the ECUs, but with car being so old, I guess not too big of an issue. Still looks great :)

@RDsRCReviews 5 месяцев назад

@@myfrankfurt I'm running a 24hr diagnostic on the new battery but I think it finally registered. At least the app said it did. How do you know the display is the culprit with the battery registration? Worst case I could unplug the digital display cluster and plug in the factory one but that's a bit of a hassle.

@GrantSmith1982 2 месяца назад

Hi Ryan. Does the new dash show you the gear your in and if you need to shift up/down like the oem display? Any missing features?

@RDsRCReviews 2 месяца назад

Honestly I'm not sure. I've never paid attention to that. Did you look at the end if the video when I'm driving it to see if it's visible? There's different layouts you can select and some show options that other ones don't

@Sfg966 Месяц назад

Hello, i commented before and after switching back to oem i realized its just garbage. Fuwlgage dowsnt show proper fuel amount, ceuise control stops working, obd has bunch of error codes regarding cluster, mileage in other modules doesnt show properly etc etc. I threw it in garbage and put back oem with white lights and im supper satisfied

@RDsRCReviews Месяц назад

@@Sfg966 yeah I'm dealing with those same issues. The codes are no biggie since ever don't trip any lights but the fuel issue is something I noticed but it usually figures it out. We also have issues with the cruise control at times.

@AlexTriana-qu5bw 4 месяца назад

hey did you ever get the check engine light off ? also how do you enable all your settings like tire pressure and etc ??

@RDsRCReviews 4 месяца назад

yes the light went away after I started it back up. I also can clear the light using my Carly OBS2 module. I didn't get the tire pressure to work but I can access that from the iDrive menu.

@sraul1699 13 дней назад

hi do you still use it and does it still have any problems? thank you for this video, if i decide to get one this will be very helpful

@RDsRCReviews 13 дней назад

Yes it's still installed but there are some problems that myself and others have reported that have not been fixed by the manufacturer. The most noticeable is the fuel gauge moves around a lot and isn't terribly accurate. Also it can cause an occasional check engine light to trip. It also causes the cruise control to randomly stop working and when you want to install a new battery you'll have a lot of problems getting the new battery registered. I still love the look of it which is why I have kept it installed and for the most part these problems are not a huge deal to me but if I knew these issues before buying it I would have passed for the amount it costs.

@sraul1699 13 дней назад

@@RDsRCReviews Thanks for the reply! I also love how it looks as well, it's a shame they have not fixed these issues yet because it is quite expensive

Hello, i have the same device on same car, i dont have bmw logo at startup and M badge next to speedometer, only 3 lines and i dont have a car picture in the middle, can it be fixed with update

@RDsRCReviews 5 месяцев назад

Did you buy it from the same vendor? It is possible that yours is using an older firmware or a different firmware from a different seller. You can change a lot of the looks within the menu. Make sure you check the hidden menus that you can access with the code that should have been provided by the seller.

@@dumitruaruncutean4651 no I've had no problems with it working though if you look at the comments you'll see that it does have issues with inaccurate gas levels and sometimes it causes the cruise control to stop working.

@rayhurley1335 3 месяца назад

Hi Ryan, so with the fuel gauge does it give a true reading of how much fuel is in the tank? I just installed mine and drove to work this morning and it keeps giving me varying amounts and this changes when I accelerate or if i am in traffic…. Do you know if there is a setting for this? Thanks Ray

@RDsRCReviews 3 месяца назад

Yep mine does the same thing at times and I don't know why. I have talked to the company and they say it simply uses the data from the computer but I agree that something is up with that. Usually if is fine but it will vary considerably at times. I'm going to message them and tell them that I'm not the only one reporting this issue.

@rayhurley1335 3 месяца назад

It is really odd, i did try and go through the menus and nothing seemed to change it, i have changed a setting In refuelling and disabled it and when i go to work tomorrow i will fill it right up.. i will let you know if that does anything. Thanks for your prompt reply 😊

@RDsRCReviews 3 месяца назад
