Has anyone gotten this method to work on a 2021 BMW 7 Series 50i before?

Really hoping this unlocks my 2021 BMW 7 Series 50i's mystery code.

Will this work for older 2021 BMW 7 Series 50is? Mine's a 2009.

This is gold. I’ve been locked out of my 2021 BMW 7 Series 50i for days.

I can’t believe I found this. Been stuck with my 2021 BMW 7 Series 50i too.
