The OBDb lists 81 parameters for the BMW 4 Series, read from 1 control modules. Real responses from BMW 4 Series cars confirm 81 of the parameters. Drivers have tested model years 2014 to 2019, 2021 to 2022, 2024, 2026.
Where is the BMW 4 Series's OBD-II port?
The OBD-II port is usually under the dashboard, between the steering column and the door. Some cars put it in the center console or behind a 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.
