I will update if it will cycle the abs pump and i did see a transmission fill mode (for pdk?) but did not try it out.
It will also read all codes which cheap obd bluetooth adapters paired with Torque app wont even rear or clear.
interesting. Mine is a manual 2010 997 4s. Might be different on a pdk? Anyone more that has any experience and input? I will update as soon as i get the car back... AND mine is a nt510. Recent software update to 997 and mini cooper in the same unit.

In reference to the PDK cars, maybe the device recognizes the transmission is PDK, and technically shouldn't be able to over rev? just a thought, I could be way off base.

possible bu5 if you connect a genuine piwis tester at the Porsche dealership it will show the over revs for a pdk as well.

So if I'm reading correctly, this cannot clear oil/maintenance reminders? Is there another unit that can? While I think it's neat to program all of the other things, I can't see buying one if it can't do the basics.

Does anyone know if PASM can be disabled with NT520 or Durametric Pro only?

So can a Foxwell read DME and over rev on a manual 997?

No over rev on my 997.2, just blank fields.

Thanks for clarifying. That would be a big plus otherwise, it thesame as an icarsoft.

If I understand you correctly, you have not downloaded the Porsche specific software from the www.Foxwelltech.com website, at which point a Porsche icon comes up on the display which enables access to the various diagnostic/setting functions.

I coded my horn to honk when I lock my car. Why does my horn sound so sick (weak)? Others who have changed theirs, dose it sound bad also?

Anyone tried disabling TPMS with NT510 or NT520? I understand the TMPS control box has to be disconnected first before starting the disable process. Been having problems with TMPS system again (sensors are only three years old) and fed up with false readings.
