Just a heads-up for anyone who has a Durametric. I downloaded the latest software from their website last night and found that it can now read the over-revs and running hours of my 997.2 C4S smile

It couldn't do that before - and no I wasn't missing anything, that fact was confirmed by the manufacturer - so that was a nice surprise.

I also learned that I have 800-odd over-revs in range 1, which I understand to be something along the lines of "bouncing off the limiter".

Not that it bothers me in the least.

In fact, I'm surprised there aren't more to be honest, even with PDK. When I first collected it first gear always caught me out because it just doesn't sound / feel like it needs to shift when it does!

It also turns out that even with my supersonic autobahn runs the car has averaged just under 30mph over the course of its life!

You probably know its ignitions not revolutions ....so 800 is no worry i checked one yesterday with 29000!

Can anybody just download this to a laptop and plug into car and hey presto? Or is there more involved? Does anything need to be purchased?
Thanks
