How do you like the Autel tool? lt looks like it'd be worth buying.
I like the Autel. It is the most versatile scan tool I've seen (works with the most vehicles, from the most countries.) It can't check everything on the Boxster and can't do as much as the Durametric Pro (if the Durametric actually worked on my car.) Apparently, Durametric made a change in their software to protect copying that made it no longer compatible with some versions/years of cars. My '98 was one. They don't offer any solutions so I can't recommend their software.

The Autel was able to diagnose and reset both the airbag and alarm system faults. The alarm system fault did not come back. The airbag did, until I made the fix. The Autel detected an ABS fault and instrument cluster fault but couldn't clear either of those. I have no idea what could be wrong with the instrument cluster. It works perfectly.
