The code reader couldnt access the software so its a dealer only job ,we do not have this probelm in europe as a sensor probe is inserted into the exhaust pipe ,Only the dealer can access the diadnosis socket here in europe and new cars have to be accessed via the internet as not even the dealers have the software ,its to stop the chinese from hacking and selling the software over the internet so the ECU has a encryption chip that changes the codes used 3 times a second just like satalite TV card

Failed emission. BMW 325 Ci. MIL CMD failed. KOER fail. What does it mean?

There is a problem with the way the engine is burning fuel also the check engine light bulb is out..In otherwords when a car is inspected and put on the analyzer. It runs tests of various systems. In your case KOER means your check engine light is supposed to come on when you crank the car and go off once the car starts. Yours never came on as a check (maybe bulb out ) or intentionally disconnected. Also your care is putting out emissions above the limit.

What does mil cmd fail mean?

MIL is your malfunction indicator lamp, (check engine light)

CMD is the computer interface port, or OBDII port indicating a malfunction communicating with your cars computer

check all the fuses, primarily any marked pcm and retest your vehicle
note: your check engine or MIL has to be on in KOEO state (key on engine off), if the bulb is burned out everything will still work and the OBDII test computer will show MIL status ON, and if you don't have a computer to tell you that, you must get that light to light in the koeo state.

Failed emissions test

First step is to have the code or codes read.If the "check engine light" is on there will be a reason and should be a code or codes to be read.Once you have the codes,you can determine the correction needed to get that "check engine light" out and a valid emissions test completed.Get back to us with the codes found.

All of a sudden my car has a miss and lack of power, a stumble when starting off.. The last time this happend it was a coil for cyl 3 & 8. how do I check this out ?

A SCAN TOOL WILL TELL YOU WHAT CYLINDERS MISFIRING.THATS QUICK WAY TO CHECK.CHANGE FUEL FILTER AND CLEAN FUEL INJECTORS BY FILLING GAS TANK AND PUTTING A BOTTLE SEA FOAM IN TANK.MISFIRING LACK OF POWER AND STUMBLING ON ACCELERATION MOST TIME CLOGGED FUEL INJECTORS WILL CAUSE THOSE PROBLEMS.

Did not pass state inspection (vehicle)

First the fault codes,
U110C is No Fuel Level Bus Message
U0155 is No Cluster Bus Message.
Unfortunatly you have to be able to communicate with the instrument cluster with your scanner to diagnoise and I do not think an aftermarket scanner can do this.
