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.

Discussions that contain suggestions: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Suggestion
Yes you do need the code, my car came with ZERO documentation from the previous/original owner, the ONLY "documentation" was the radio key code card, and the only reason he had it was because he had to change the battery the year before, and had to go to the Porsche dealerhsip to get the code.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'm planning on removing the CDR-220 tomorrow, I have the tool set (though I'm still not clear on the process) I want to add the aux cable for the iphone. Question - will I need the radio code when I put the CDR back in? My car didn't come with the code. Thanks!

POST 2Original post

What year? '03 w/ MOST (fiber optic bus), I did not need a code. '99 w/o MOST, I do need my code.

POST 3Original post

Have you ever changed your battery, and does your radio still work? If so, you don't need the code. You need to unlock the radio every time the battery is disconnected if you have a radio that requires a code.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I just got the car a couple of weeks ago so I haven't disconnected the battery. It's a 2000. I just sent an email on Renntech with the serial number, etc...hopefully I can get the code. It sounds like I will need it when I re-install the radio based on some other threads I saw. Thanks!

WOW!! Yes you do need the code, my car came with ZERO documentation from the previous/original owner, the ONLY "documentation" was the radio key code card, and the only reason he had it was because he had to change the battery the year before, and had to go to the Porsche dealerhsip to get the code.
