Anyone here running an Aim Solo 2 DL with a Smarty Cam? I have questions. I can't seem to get braking information from the car. Thanks

Are you getting data from odb2 port? Is it confirmed that data is provided by our cars? I looked briefly and I thought it wasn't but could be wrong

Would love to know the same too! I have an older DL from my e46 that I wanted to tie into my new F80 too.

Is this the cable you used to connect the Aim to the car?

No, brake information is not available for the F8X M3/M4.

Yes, and it's included in the Aim Solo 2DL.

I just picked up a Solo 2 DL and I was told that there's a Porsche forum or a "guy" that I could call to get that set up. As soon as I get mine connected I'll reach out to him and share his info if you'd like?

Hey Man. Yes, it's possible but it's not a true brake information out of the car. The Solo 2DL is a couple of things such as GPS, G load information etc, etc. to arrive w/ something super close to brake information. I had Aim, Lake Elsinore CA all do it for me.

Damn really? So you can't get data around brake pressure? Sounds like a major piece of data that's missing!

Is this still the conclusion or did anyone subsequently figure out how to get real brake information? thanks
