The OBDb lists 245 parameters for the BMW M5, read from 1 control modules. Real responses from BMW M5 cars confirm 39 of the parameters. Drivers have tested model years 2018, 2023.
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.
