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.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

While scheduling my car for state inspection at my local dealer, he suggested an airbag check. I've never heard of that one before. Anyone else?

POST 3Original post

It falls under Porsche's "Additional Maintenance". " Maintenance after 4, 8, 10 then every 2 years Inspect air bag system Mounting of assemblies and running gear: Visual inspection of all rubber mounts for damage" The procedure (per the service manual): "Inspecting airbag system 1. Function test of airbag warning light. Switch on ignition to carry out this test. The airbag warning light must light up for approx. 3 seconds. If the warning light does not light up, check the bulb and power supply. 2. Function test of the airbag system: - Connect and switch on the Porsche System Tester. - Switch ignition on. - Establish communication with the Airbag/POSIP control module. - Read out fault memory: No fault stored. - Remove E1 fuse. - Fault present after approx. 30 seconds (Airbag warning light). - Insert E1 fuse again. - Clear fault memory. - Read out fault memory again after approx. 30 seconds: No fault stored. 3. Check that a trim or stickers are not attached to the airbag units (driver's, passenger's, side airbag). 4. Visual inspection of the components for damage and deformation. 5. The system check must be acknowledged in the stamp spaces provided in the Guarantee and Maintenance booklet." They should not charge you much - it takes about 5 minutes with a PST2 or PIWIS.

POST 4Original post

Can you do it with Durametric? I just ordered it but not loaded yet.

POST 5Original post

I haven't tried it with the Durametric software but I think it should work... because pulling the fuse just causes an air bag fault code. Then you put the fuse back in and clear the code. Should work fine.
