    That tool decodes repair job codes that can be pulled on your car from the dealer. Not sure if there is any way to get them other than through the dealer. There was a guy on bimmerforums in the E46 section who was pulling the reports for people.

    Default The ksd has all the defect codes in it. They aren't

    really much use other than to translate what job the dealer did on your car.
    It gives a description to the job code number entered on an invoice.

    Yes, dealer diagnosis. It might be of help/info if you consider to buy a new car and just want to check the records like in this case
