From a web posting on the subject of Softronic installs, how Porsche catches poeple, and the run time clocks, read it and weep:

"You can reload the original DME software .... but the 'Hours Run' clock in the DME should match the one in the computer that controls the airbags. When you flash (or re-flash)the car the DME clock stops until the flashing is complete, so afterwards the clocks will not match. It takes a very knowledgeable techie to find that one though...."
