Folks,
I am looking at a cheap method of resetting my airbag light on Porsche and reading fault codes/reset service lights etc. The only options as I see are
1. Go to Porsche dealer or Garage (which is expensive)
2. Durametric Diagnostic kit which is still expensive but the only aftermarket kit I can see.
Does anyone know of any others or have any recommendations for any diagnostics kits? My other car is a BMW and I have a cheap INPA cable kit which does the job perfectly (I don’t mind cheap clones if anything is available)
Thanks in advance.

Try censored. I’ve ordered this in the past, it looks like a gen 1 durametric cable and does the trick without paying over the odds prices. It is compatible with version 4 or 5 of the software and also comes with software download link which and does the job and is an inexpensive way of getting the job done as has saved me a fortune. Hope this helps.

thats an over priced FAKE cable, pay less if thats what you want http://www.carobdtool.co.uk/wholesale/new-porsche-...
for example

i got one to reset my boxster airbag light, it worked but i had to pick a weird 964 car option to make it work, but it did work so money well spent

Looks like a scam, a little self advertising. Both the OP and the responder are brand new members, joined 1 day ago!

I'm sure neither have a connection with "Porschecable" !!!!!
