BMW 5 Series G30

Translated on 22-07-2026, 18:42.

Hello CANhack community,

Is there already any information available about where one can tap into the CAN bus on the new 5-series (G30)? I just want to listen in and not transmit anything, in order to read things like the current wheel speeds or steering torque.

It would be interesting to know where I can access the different K-CAN interfaces.

"Perhaps someone knows where to tap into the CAN bus messages on the previous generation (F10). Then, you could start searching for them in the same places on the new 5 Series."

I thank you in advance.

How about the gateway control unit?

All of them are there.

Thank you for the response.

Where is the gateway control unit physically located in the new G30? Is it under the dashboard on the left side, behind the OBD interface?
