Japanese makesISTA and ISPI NEXT for diagnostics, coding and programming. Two ICOM interfaces. Autologic with a remote engineering team in Europe for the hard cases. And since 2012, one of Florida’s select authorized DINAN BMW Performance facilities.
Six areas of work, each done with the parts, fluids and procedures the manufacturer specifies. If what you need is not on the list, call; it is a short list on purpose.
All servicesOil service resets, brake and microfilter items, and the inspection lists done to BMW's specification, book stamped.
Module coding, software programming and battery registration with the factory system, not a workaround.
Software, intakes, exhausts, suspension and Brembo brake kits, warranted with coverage matched to BMW's own.
Mounting, balancing and alignment for the wheel and tire packages BMW ships with.
Electric water pumps and thermostats, wiring, modules, climate control and locksmith key work.
Fluid service, mechatronics work and the adaptation and programming that follows.
DINAN, founded in 1979, develops and manufactures performance software and hardware for BMW. Its warranty program, introduced in 1996 with the cooperation of BMW of North America, matches coverage to BMW’s own new-car warranty, up to 4 years or 50,000 miles. We have been one of Florida’s authorized facilities since 2012.
BMW's diagnostic tablet of the era, bought from BMW so older cars still get factory-level access.
Programming moved off the GT1 and onto the SSS; we upgraded with it.
A UK tool and remote engineering service that solves programming problems that make BMW systems expensive elsewhere.
BMW's server-based diagnostics and programming, subscribed and current, with two ICOM interfaces on the floor.
Engine, transmission and suspension software and hardware from North America's BMW tuner, installed and warranted here.
BMW’s diagnostics, coding, programming and initialization run through one integrated system. To talk to the car properly you need that system, current, with the hardware BMW specifies. Continental Imports bought its first GT1 from BMW in 2002, moved to the SSS in 2006, and has run ISTA since BMW made its diagnostics server-based in 2009, now ISPI NEXT, the latest BMW system. Two ICOM interfaces connect the diagnostic computers to the car; Autologic sits alongside for the programming puzzles that would otherwise mean a dealer visit.
Battery registration, brake-wear resets, module coding after a repair, software updates that fix a known fault: all routine on a modern BMW, and all things a generic scanner does badly or not at all. Doing them with the factory tool is the difference between a repair that holds and a warning light that comes back.
The same toolset covers MINI. If you drive one, the MINI page has the detail.
The three we hear most for this marque. Anything else, call and ask for the advisor who handles it.
“If you're still taking your BMW to the dealership for service, do yourself a favor and go to Continental Imports instead. They even had a loaner car ready for me without me having to ask.”
Online or call and talk to an advisor. Ask for a loaner when you book.
