This is not a probability of success.

My fox well diagnostic tool cleared a couple of codes caused by a flat battery, it's a tiptronic and they default to limp mode needing a reset, the tool saves a fortune in Porsche tax if like me you have failed to use the car and leave it for long periods.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

1 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

After not using my 996 since Feb, I found some time to get it ready for an Mot to find it wouldn't tick over. My fox well diagnostic tool cleared a couple of codes caused by a flat battery, it's a tiptronic and they default to limp mode needing a reset, the tool saves a fortune in Porsche tax if like me you have failed to use the car and leave it for long periods. A quick scout of you tube and I found a great video of a cable throttle ICV clean and refit, and yes mine was stuck, gummed up with black sticky fuel /oil, cleaned with meths as I have run out of brake cleaner So a quick blast to check all was well, It's a great car, tiptronic with an AMG paddle shift 3 spoke manual wheel, Chinese collector manifolds, Topgear 200cell x pipe and dank,sport boxes giving 2.5" bore exhaust throughout for 20% of the cost of the Kline system and the best bit, 18" OZ lightweight wheels with michelin pilot sport 4 tyres Photo shows other passion, COVID lockdown project BSA Bantam built from parts,
