What is INPA and what can it do?
INPA is factory BMW diagnostics software that connects to all the systems and modules on BMW cars not just engine like generic scanners, it reads all BMW trouble codes and gives live diagnostics and data and GUI pages and test functions.
You can perform all the functions that a dealer can and these include things like:
– Scanning all systems and checking/clearing faults.
– Activating new modules installed into your BMW.
– And lots more. A quick google search with what you are trying to do and “INPA” in the term will let you know.
Please see here for a guide on how to install the software needed from Bimmergeeks.

Took me a while to get it working on Windows 10 but that was more user error than the product.
Once I got the software installed and plugged it into the car, I pushed the button and BOOM the issue (flat spot at 4000rpm due to the knock sensor reducing power) was gone and I now have full power.
I am over the moon.
Thanks so much
Cheers,
Aaron
