very good so does anyone know of a wifi app that would display it on my phone? and THANKS FOR THE INFO!

 

Dam your right it shows an oil temp sensor in the general ms43 explanation diagram in the bently manuel. I wonder if torque or carlysoft etc shows that?

 

I've been trying to figure out how for a long time. Best solution I could come up with was to just buy a used M3 cluster and code it.

 

Inpa and pa soft show it. I haven't tried with obdfusion

 

Search: note in the link that post #5 is fake news; #13 seems on point.

Reviving an old thread.. does anyone know of any modules that broadcast oil temp on the Ibus?

e.g. on the e39 the LCM has a direct input from the thermal sensor.
With some calculations, you can get an exact oil temp on the Ibus from the LCM.

On the e46 there are 2 sensors that feed into the DME for Oil Level temp. We know its broadcasted over CAN over the dme.

I'd like to know if there are any modules on the CAN can request Oil temp and report back on Ibus.

Regards,

 

I've never found one. The DSC module has a status_can_dme_4_lesen which should in theory contain oil temp, but when I looked at the results it didn't seem to match the CAN format, and even if it did, I'm not sure you can access the D-bus from the I-bus.

Edit: Well the reason tool32 resulted in junk data might be because they programmed the wrong CAN address in. In theory from the D-bus you can get it with [B8 29 F1 03 22 05 45 CS] (CS being checksum), but I don't know if that's a request you can send from the K/I-bus or if you can only send it from the OBDII port.

 

thanks Terra, ill keep you posted.
