Read evidence and context
Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I bought mine used from this forum, but it is a genuine durametric cable.

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.

Ummmmmmmmmmm.......you can download the current version Durametric software, for free, from the Durametric site. Only problem is that it will not work with out a registered version 6 cable................
Here is an explanation and the right place to download the software, and buy the cable. I bought mine used from this forum, but it is a genuine durametric cable.
Diagnostic Tool for Porsche | Durametric
I dove into the code to see what version and its Version 3.1 Durametric from 2005.
Ancient history but probably a bit more useful than a standard OBDII reader if you still have Windows XP or lower hanging around.
If you go to the Duramtric site and look up the version history you will be able to see all the things you can not do with version 3.x
These cloned applications don't work very well and crash a lot, hence all the version updates to the Durametric software since v3.x.
Just saying... but like I said, useful for reading those custom Porsche codes.
OK - I'll pick up where JFP left off. It's been a tough week for a few threads on this forum...
The Durametric software is a great diagnostic tool to have for any Porsche owner.
Why not just plan to pony up and pay for the current version and support the developers. It's not that expensive!
:ah:
