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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Does someone who lives in the Boston area have a Durametric tool I can use so that I can turn off the "Service" light off? It's so annoying that for 2005/2006 models, Porsche makes you go to the dealership to get this damn thing reset. Dealers are wanting 1 hr labor to do this! I say, "What? I can't even do my own oil change?" I can drive to your location with my car.... Thanks in advance!

the "enthusiasts" durametric product only allows the setup to clear codes for 3 vin #s. After 3 vehicles have used it, you have to send it back to durametric and pay for additional usage. So, if someone hooks up there durametric to your car, they are losing one of there vin# spots that they paid for. hence the price of the durametric. Might be time to buy your own or pay the piper(dealer)

POST 3Original post

I don't have a durametric, but my scantool can clear the basic codes if you need to use it. I live in Fenway. http://www.autoenginuity.com/

Service light for oil? I never heard of that. I'm not as familiar with the 997 and the 996 so I am guessing the "service" light isn't the same as the one the scan tools clear (i.e., CEL). Can you post a pic of what you are talking about?

POST 5Original post

Oh, good point. I didn't notice that it was a "service" light. My 996 doesn't have that. S.
