Download link for ISTA

Hi all,

I have a 2016 f80 m3 and was wondering if everyone would happen to have a download link to an English version of ISTA? I want to use ISTA to do the oil rebalancing procedure on my DCT gearbox.

Just so anyone is aware, you can get the latest version of ISTA on eBay for around $20 and most come with a 1 click installer. That's what I do.

The one click installer is “free”
Bimmerfest forums has the link. I’m in the process of installing in my MacBook Air with external SSD running W10

I paid the $6 for mega one month access to get the files without bandwidth caps.

Not sure how the eBay route works but I’m hoping for those who buy it, it’s not a Mega download link.

I was going to go the eBay route as it’s simple and you don’t need to spend the time searching for links... but I’m a stubborn goat lol.

Anyone familiar, know if it's possible, or even think it's a good idea to run ISTA off of a external an HD?

This has been done many times, but not recommended for application stability and read/write performance.

Not running BC. Direct boot option but used BC system files when doing the initial setup. It’s an external USB SSD travel drive that I Velcro’d to my lid. This is a 2013 MBAir mind you lol.
