Coding iDrive Language possible with BT Cable?

I have a e92 (CIC/iDrive) and am going to get a BT cable for logging, code reading/clearing and maybe flashing down the track. my car is a e92 from Japan and the language is in japanese as well as the radio frequencies. Can this be fixed (coded) with a BT cable? I couldn't find a guide anywhere.

Thanks!

BT really doesn't do coding and you definitely don't want to try and flash a CIC with a OBD cable. You'll need an ICOM for that to do the job properly.

I know there's a guy in the NZ area that specializes in Japanese conversions for BMWs, I just can't remember his website.

Thanks, yes I know of a couple of outfits here that do it. Just wanted to see if it was possible in the way I mentioned since I am located a fair way from those outfits and getting a BT cable anyway.

Cheers for the help
