@CaptnO when I use the term _variant_, I'm referring to the _diagnostic variant_. This is BMW parlance, but it's analogous to an API version. As the module is updated, be...

If you were considering contributing @QSSaber, this could be a good feature to start with. @tedsalmon has already written most of what you need, and I can write documentation for...

@vgergiev @rsporsche has pretty much summed it up! The development environment is a bit more verbose than you'll be used to, but don't let that put you off. We're dealing...

@QSSaber Coincidentally, Ted and I were discussing this recently. I'm happily without a CD53, but Ted has tested the module extensively, so I can relay his findings. This is a...

@tabor-a To follow on from @tedsalmon, there's also an inherent constraint with respect to setting the time. Clusters coded for BMBT will [accept input](https://github.com/piersholt/wilhelm-docs/blob/master/gt/40.md#time) from GT for multiple parameters including...

@RosieE39 the navigation computer does indeed [broadcast GPS Time](https://github.com/piersholt/wilhelm-docs/blob/master/nav/1f.md), however it's UTC. The timezone can _technically_ be deduced from [GPS coordinates](https://github.com/piersholt/wilhelm-docs/blob/master/nav/a2.md), but I'm unaware of a C library that's not...

@harryberlin > you can code the ike to receive the gps time for clock. Code it and see what happens 😊

BlueBus does not connect to, or interface with CAN bus. BMWs of this era have multiple buses, all of which serve different purposes. BlueBus deals exclusively with the K-Bus and...

@Quattro20v Happy to help 😄 I'd also recommend searching for the following BMW documents. A few exact keyword searches should yield results on Google 😉 They'll give you an overview...

@Quattro20v ah! Yes @sleuth255 is quite right. A plug and play interface for I/K-Bus will be useful. However, you can still try NavCoder with your diagnostic interface. Also, unless it's...
