Working perfectly except I'd like to change the odo to be correct and also another couple of settings to correct errors due to vin mismatch etc.

Just a friendly post, I have full working PIWIS II in Melbourne now and have made some good changes with it.

And if you are in Mel, Happy to let you have a look and test/use it before you buy.

I'm more than happy to pay you for the use of the PIWIS 2.
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.

Hi Folks
Just a friendly post, I have full working PIWIS II in Melbourne now and have made some good changes with it. If anyone is looking to enable some features which require PIWIS, I am more than happy to assist.
The PIWIS II can work on all cars up to 2016 (not sure about 2017 but will depend if it still have the earlier model hardware)
Some of the things I have done using PIWIS II on my Cayenne GTS 2016
- Install and enable ACC (Calibration done at a proper shop)
- Install and enable HomeLink
- Install and enable factory tow hitch
- Some other minor tweaks (disable start/stop, able to turn off DRL(I go to drive in cinema so needed that
),
FYI, Anything you want to do would be at your own risk.
Would it work for general diagnostics on an early 996.1? My car has been resting for a few months while I've been trying to diagnose some weird eletrical glitches, and my basic OBD reader doesn't interpret all the porsche reading
@James P
Sorry, I use it often so not selling. But you can buy one from following website(I bought from here as well) .

Looks useful. For general diagnostics I have found the iCarSoft valuable. Not costly and doesn't need a computer interface. Most of the PIWIS only work on PCs, not Macs - leaving out a significant market sector.
Hi Iffarrukh,
I have read that PIWIS can be used to program a Macan I (MY15) for white instrument dials. This would have the effect of having backlighting on the speedo and tacho when driving in daylight on DRLs. Are you able to do this with your PIWIS equipment? I can supply the necessary coding. Thank you.

Please let me know if this is something you'd be willing to help me with.

Hey mate,
Nice work with the PIWIS II! Good to know there’s someone local who can help with coding. Might hit you up for a few tweaks on my Cayenne.
Cheers.
