Diagnostic Tool Question – What Should I Get?
 
Hi everyone, I have owned many Porsches over the years (18 to be exact), most of which were air-cooled. However, I recently purchased a 2016 Cayman S. Wow, what a difference from the old cars I owned! Oh man, the electronics seem overwhelming. I looked at a few scanner tools to also perform the oil service reset and other resets. The iCarsoft POR 2 came highly recommended but I decided to buy the Topdon Phoenix Lite, a Bluetooth model. I'm curious what other 281 owners use for recalibration and diagnostics.

Nice, I see you're building up your post count in an effort to establish credibility.
