Garage without experience can brick TCU, or not be able to complete calibration and strandle the car for months... You might create $$$$ worth of problems for yourself without any reason. Let us know if need a recommendation of garage that is experienced in PDK things.
thanks appreciate the feedback on this. I am going to pick up a Foxwell NT530 and see if I can clear these codes myself

thanks

Default What's the verdict

Did you find out what the problem was?

U0155 CAN timeout

U1046 CAN timeout

U0418 CAN fault

Car drives perfect and according to the history has had a PDK service late last year, specialist is saying they recommend them doing a PDK service and PDK calibration (at a cost of around £900) now will pay that if needed but would be good to get some feedback if anyone else has seen this.

My car is new to me this month a 2011 997.2 Carrera S, car has had a PPI done so surprised this did not come up then as well
