From what I've read of other's experiences, the 991.2 requires the Porsche shop scanner.

Nope, I was able to reset the service interval and oil mine using that same scanner.

Interesting, I read several posts that the .2 was not able to be reset by the current scanners.

A few threads on this topic. I have the latest icarsoft...POR 2.0 (I believe) and a 991.2 and it works for maintenance resets just fine.

The icarsoft works fine on 991.2, just use the latest firmware for it.

Yes it does. And works straight connected to the OBD-II port. The only time you connect it to a PC, is when you need to update the software for the device.

It worked for me, I tried to update the software but that was a train wreak. Never could get it to update, it it did reset my service light.
