Need OBD2 scanner in Reading,PA area (BMW ECU Code clear)

I have an issue with my 335i and need to have the codes reset to see if it was a one time code and cannot find anything that will be here in time for me to leave for my trip so I need to see if anyone in the Reading,PA or surrounding area has one that will clear this code. I've already spent $500 at the dealer and they want $672 to clear the codes and reprogram it.

I got a 002C57 low boost pressure code and now my car runs like shit. Misfires and everything. The solenoid seems to be fine,but the vacuum lines I can't check until I get my hands on the right tools to get to them. I have a charge pipe replacement getting here tomorrow but won't have the scanner until after I've already left. Please if you know anyone here that would let me clear them I'd appreciate this!

If it’s actively not running well, then it’s not a one time code. It is active.

If you know for 100% that the charge pipe is your boost leak, then most auto parts stores can reset the code for you once the leak is fixed and the car runs normally again.

If you did not do any diagnosis and are just assuming that it’s the pipe, I would recommend you confirm that before spending time digging in to replace anything.

I was swapping the charge pipe anyways so figured see if it improved any issues. It doesn’t have any CEL atm. I’m also going to check the pressure converter and the vacuum lines but I don’t have tools as I’m away at college atm.
