Hi,

Sorry. Aside from Mandated OBDII Codes (which by law are accessible through aftermarket scanners), Porsche uses a proprietary software and code reader called the PST2 or PIWIS. They give you only what the Gov't mandates, but wants to wet the Dealer's beak for the rest...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
