Hello everybody….

Couple of weeks ago i purchased a clone icoma2, complete with rheingold software installed on a hardisk. I use a dell d630 laptop. The only problem i have is that i can't read F-Series car. Every other car is no problem. When i connect to a F-car. The Icom recognized the vin number an sees Kl 15 and KL30. But when i wanna start to read out the car. Ista/d says it cannot identify the car. Looses Kl 15 and KL30. For E series i don't have that problem! Also with Ista/p i don't have a problem wit E or F cars. I also used an original Icom and got the exact same problem as with clone Icom. So i think the problem is in the software somehow. But what???? The people who sold me the stuff (chinese) don't know how to help me. Maybey someone here knows how??

same way is happening to me with a 92 bmw 325 e36 but for this car i think its the ecu, it was swapped i can only use ncsexpert to read certain modules, did you figure your issue out?

Patrick,
Rheingold version?
F series production date?
Did you try with E-Net cable for F series?
I used E-Net cable with F series is worked a lot faster than the ICOM.
Please post the screen shots and we might help you out.

I know this Problem from a E81. A disconnect from the Car Battery for 5 Minutes fixed the Problem.
