Is there an equivalent of VCDS for Porsche?


If not, does anyone know how easy / expensive it is to get the official software and interface?

Thanks

(I've posted a similar topic on the Mercedes forum, I need both!)

Try Autologic http://www.autologic-diagnostics.com/en/pages/home... they have software for both Porsche and Mercedes, and I think you can have them on same tester, not cheap but We use them for Porsche all the time, excellent tool, and excellent back up!

This might be worth a look:

You can add Porsche and Mercedes enhancements to the same package. Not as in-depth as dealer tools but most systems covered.

Main downside is that it does not do annual service light reset on Porsche.

Might be worth looking at this for Mercedes and Durametric for Porsche.

Lol. Agree. It is a big downside. That is the reason I suggested Durametric would be better.

I'd really appreciate a similar PM as I'm currently looking for Porsche diagnostic software too.

Many thanks in advance.
