Does this work with Jaapanese imports?

Yes it will as long as the vehicle has the correct obd fitment ( see description)

Will this work with a BMW i3 and can you change settings via Bimmercode?

Hi, I have an F32 and it works fine with bimmercode and Bimmerlink so I would guess it'll be okay on your i3. Hope this helps.

Based on my experience, the product will most likely support your model. However, as we have not tested it on your model, we cannot give you a 100% answer. However, if you find it doesn't fit after purchase, we support a no-questions-asked return for a full refund to you. Support criteria: Our products are suitable for US made 12V petrol vehicles compatible with the standard OBD2 protocol after 1996, and 12V light duty diesel vehicles with loads of 6.5T or less that support the OBD2 protocol after 1996. Do not use on diesel vehicles with 24 V power supply. For European vehicles, our products can also be used on EU 12V petrol (post 2001) and 12V diesel (post 2004) vehicles that are compliant with the OBD2 protocol.
