Model years 2002 to 2026CombustionOnboarded
6,675 miles driven with Pelican by 12 drivers
10,742 kilometers driven with Pelican by 12 drivers
The OBDb lists 266 parameters for the BMW Z4, read from 1 control modules. Real responses from BMW Z4 cars confirm 119 of the parameters. Drivers have tested model years 2010, 2019 to 2020, 2022.
Where is the BMW Z4'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.
