I agree, and FWIW, many Z4 or indeed BMW owners don't understand "codes" and would go directly to the dealer for the bend over treatment

I wonder how the expensive options perform with E89... Autel?
I bought an Autel unit for mine, maybe would have been OK if it included the N20 engine variant (correct at the time of testing) but it didn't. It went back.

So yes, to each his own. As far as I'm concerned all viable options are on the table.
