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 got a check engine light from what I think is the coolant that leaked into the intake when I was replacing the AOS.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

What years do durametrics cover? I got a check engine light from what I think is the coolant that leaked into the intake when I was replacing the AOS. Kragen, and a shop near by wouldn't run the code. Kragen sells a $69 OBD2 code reader. Should I just get the Durametrics? Or is there an additional use for the OBD2? Also anyone know if OBD2's can reset service lights on Audis? Thanks

POST 2Original post

My cheapo code reader(Harbor Freight) can read the Porsche codes, my '05 GMC, VW etc. and reset them...but, it won't reset the Porsche seatbelt light. The Durametric is more costly, but it does a lot more.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yeah, I'm doing my own service on my 09 Audi and it has a service due light that is always on at the start. If the OBD2 clears that then I'll buy it, if not, Audi has their own durametric type cable.

POST 4Original post

just used my durametric to record various voltages and diagnose a bat cat - was a good buy... it has saved me more them I spent on it.
