  i8 (i12) Anti Dazzle coding
Posted by: Roatomic - 01-19-2026, 08:48 PM - Forum: BMW F / G Series Coding & Retrofits & Diagnostics - No Replies

Hello, so as the title entails im trying to get anti dazzle headlights working on a 2019 i8 with laser lights. Ive verified via AIR the option codes of the car and all relevant option codes are present. i removed 8S4 from the VO and verified that 5AP is not present then encoded the BDC, NBT EVO, KAFAS and both FLE modules. Following this the result for auto high beams is still the binary on or off state and introduced an issue where the ICE engine would not start and the vehicle was only driving under battery power only. This was seemingly resolved after restoring the VO and encoding the BDC and KAFAS modules. After doing further research it seems like later i8 models may have come with KAFAS camera modules with the HBA option was hard coded to static for the US market and will only function if i flash the KAFAS camera to the euro variant. I have not yet done an NCD compare between the two but plan to shortly.

in the mean time has anyone coded anti dazzle onto an i8 and what was the process for you? There isnt much information out there in regards to i12 coding and even fewer on anti dazzle beyond a few forum posts saying its possible.

  Losing my mind with ISTA. Help needed!
Posted by: ufo56 - 01-17-2026, 08:30 PM - Forum: BMW E Series Coding & Retrofits & Diagnostics - Replies (8)

Decided to delete my very very old Windows 7 VM from 2017 where everything worked but it was bloated with some random other software and just got slow over very long time for using and installing various software, but it was mistake and here i am...


Im looking for help because Im completely stuck with ISTA connectivity. 

Every installation that i have made so far gets stuck on "Vehicle identification" part on ISTA and after some time it asks for VIN! No other errors anywhere else.


https://i.imgur.com/T8wJORX.jpeg
https://i.imgur.com/w69xutB.jpeg


I’ve spent the last 2 days / 16+ hours trying to get ISTA to work.
Im using VMware Workstation Player so I can quickly roll back to snapshots and retry installs/config changes. For example there is no problem with USB connectivity etc, because VCDS for VW works and connects like it should. There has to be that im doing wrong or installation manuals dont tell to do.

My goal is a Windows 10 VM that can handle both E-series (K+DCAN) and later F-series (ENET), ideally in one setup.
 
If that’s unrealistic or unstable, I’m also willing to run two separate VMs (one for E-series, one for F-series).

What ISTA version is most suitable for E series and F series?




And now little bit background information what i have tried and what versions.

ISTA never identifies the vehicle / cannot connect.

However, BMW Standard Tools works perfectly in the same environment:

  • INPA works
  • NCS Expert works
  • etc.

So the k-dcan cable/driver/COM setup seems fine, ISTA is the only thing that refuses to talk to the car.

OS tested
  • Windows 7 SP1
  • Windows 10 latest

Same result every time: ISTA cant find/connect to the car, but INPA/NCS still work.

All were downloaded from this forum except Rheingold 3.47.10 (found from other forum):
  • ISTA 4.53.4x
  • ISTA 4.52.4x
  • ISTA 4.49.2x
  • ISTA Standalone 4.39.20
  • ISTA Rheingold 3.47.10 (Windows 7)
Every install was done exactly according to the included instructions. Yes ediabas.ini connection type is selected alwsays on ISTA connection manager configuration tab.

At this point I don’t even know what else to try. Since Standard Tools software INPA etc connects fine...

I suspect the issue is within EDIABAS itself, possibly due to an incompatible version or mismatch between components or bad config?

I cant understand which EDIABAS from which directory ISTA uses and or what version is suitable for ISTA.

Have tried different versions of FTI drivers from http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm and some other found on different forums.


P.S. So far I’ve only tested connectivity with two different E series car. I havent yet tried an F series vehicle using an ENET cable.

Here are some EDIABAS config files from latest Windows 10 ISTA 4.39.20 installation, basically i have not changed on any installation other than connection type to STD:ODB and correct COM port.

C:\EDIABAS\BIN\EDIABAS.ini - https://pastebin.com/raw/Y6KDXRvC

C:\EDIABAS\BIN\obd.ini - https://pastebin.com/raw/w2edrjXB

C:\ec-apps\ISTA\Ediabas\BIN\EDIABAS.ini - https://pastebin.com/raw/gs3pdi5D


And some EDIABAS config files from Windows 7 ISTA Rheingold 3.47.10 installation.

C:\EDIABAS\BIN\EDIABAS.ini - https://pastebin.com/raw/U1sRnaAP

C:\EDIABAS\BIN\obd.ini - https://pastebin.com/raw/hGHM5Psz

C:\Program Files (x86)\Rheingold\Ediabas\BIN\EDIABAS.ini - https://pastebin.com/raw/0SmQ74nr

EDIT - COM port settings and driver version.

COM port settings - https://i.imgur.com/YglLTZ1.jpeg
Cable driver version(latest one that i tried, actually i went thru many versions of them) - https://i.imgur.com/SOZeiLg.png


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
