Yes It doesn't specifically support the 535 and X5, but you can still read and clear codes (both shadow and regular). I've used the JB3 since it came out (being the first X5 to use it) and have gone in for service after removing it and clearing codes with the BT tool..
So which kit did you buy? The Professional or the Enthusiast? And how did you get it to work with the X5, if the VIN is not supported (from the below link it looks like you can associate the tool to three VINs?
