The OBD II will not show all of the codes that your Porsche will kick up. Just the ones that will trigger a CEL light (if I'm not mistaken). Something I wish I knew before I spent $100 on OBD II. Money that would have been better spent on the Durametric. But at least the OBD II allows you to erase a CEL light without having to pay Autozone or similar an inflated fee to do so.
