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.

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

I want something that will work with my 03 C4S and also work with some of my other vehicles since I'm not a fan of a tool that only can be used on one car.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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

Looking at picking up a "good" diagnostic tool and have been pointed to the iCarsoft CR V2.0. I want something that will work with my 03 C4S and also work with some of my other vehicles since I'm not a fan of a tool that only can be used on one car. Anyone have any experience working with this tool? Thanks

POST 2Original post

There was a discussion about this on another 996 forum. Their Porsche specific scanner doesn't work with 996's, so I doubt their generic one will.

That's strange since I contacted iCarsoft tech support and they suggest two models that would work for my car ( the CR V2.0 and the CR Pro). Are you sure that they won't work with the 996? I've seen videos of the product and the 996 shows on the screen as one of the Porsche cars that it can work with.

POST 4Original post

If budget is not an issue, buy a Durametric. :-)

This. I was also considering autoenginuity, but the Durametric is the current DIYer Gold Standard. Tried and true, and you'll have help from the forum (in addition to Durametric) should you run into issues.

POST 6Original post

I contacted iCarSoft last year as I was about to order one. Their customer service responded that it was compatible with the 996, but when I checked the user forum on their site, 996 users said it didn't work. A second email to customer service confirmed that it was only compatible with 996 Turbos and GT3s. A recent search turned up this link on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/PORSCHE-SCA...5.c10#viTabs_0 If you scroll down, it says that it's not compatible with 996s.

Thanks for the clarification! I guess tech support isn't as "supportive" as it used to be. =0)

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
