Best Fault Code Reader at a Sensible Price

Hi there,

I'm a newbie to the forum as I've just bought a 2004 3.0 SE Z4 which has a few faults. The airbag light is on as is the DSG and brakelight showing yellow. I've already had the roof motor relocated to the boot which sorted the motor but it doesn't quite close to latch without a manual push to lock. Love the car though and I bought it to do some minor work to improve.

Anyway what I need to know is what is the best fault code reader for my Z4 without spending a fortune?

Private or trade sale?

Best is anything that comes with INPA/DIS etc. or the newer ISTA (D and P) included.

Carly is quick and easy to use. Covers you for most diagnostic work and coding too.

Great thanks all. Just ordered a C110 so lets see what it turns up fault wise. Fingers crossed.

Scooba_Steve, Hi Steve, I bought it privately from near Glasgow. It was a sensible price as the roof wasn't working but a trip to a guy in Durham and £80 later the motor now works (ish) and has been relocated to the boot.
