    Default CAS4/CAS4+ by OBD

    Wow VVDI2 can now do CAS4/CAS4+ by OBD, what’s next? FEM/ BDC, can’t be far behind

    Always follow the golden rule of putting 12v on the vehicle your working on & maybe it’ll be fine. Downgraded many CAS3++ ISTAP & I always run a cable from my running van to the vehicle & never bricked 1 yet

    I think they all copy same functions from same source. Every programmer release this function same time. Same exact situation was with FEM/BDC - of course BMW Explorer was first to make solution (same as this time) and later on we saw all other tools suddenly releasing FEM programming same time.
