The 'Service Now' light is time based only, nothing else, to remind folks to wonder into their local Porsche dealership and empty their wallet. The dealership resets the light for next yr's unloading.

I've always done my own maintenance and for yrs I would take my car to the dealership to have the light reset. The service mgr would take my car around back, reset the light, and send me on my way. No charge. Then a few yrs ago he wanted $35 when he was done. Made some excuse about how before some ppl were being charged and some weren't and they needed to charge everyone. It was at that point I bought an iCarsoft Por II to reset the light. Would only take 3 resets to pay for itself. Have used it multiple times on my two 987s along with several Wheeler Dealer cars. Easily has paid for itself. You can find them on ebay, haven't checked the evil empire (Amazon) if they sell them too.
