19,502 kilometers driven with Pelican by 81 drivers
The OBDb lists 174 parameters for the BMW 1 Series, read from 1 control modules. Real responses from BMW 1 Series cars confirm 91 of the parameters. Drivers have tested model years 2008, 2010, 2012 to 2022, 2026.
Where is the BMW 1 Series's OBD-II port?
Under the dashboard, between the steering column and the door.
It may be behind a small cover.
Support by model year
A solid mark means a real response confirmed the parameter. A light mark means the car's signalset reads it but no response has confirmed it yet.
Parameters
The parameters of the BMW 1 Series, by group. These are the commands that BMW added, and the SAE J1979 standard parameters that real cars confirm. Open a group to see its parameters, how Pelican decodes each one, and the model years that real cars confirm.
