Do you have a 'generic' odbii reader that shows the indicators and their state? (and if they are disabled or not?) there are about 10 standard readiness indicators, not all are enabled by the factory. I think its 6 or so on our cars.
I have a cheap harbor freight reader that shows this exactly and exactly which one is not set yet.
This makes it easy to know what you need to do to get set. And, one of them took a LONG time to set on my car last time around.

I'm planning on driving the drive cycle tomorrow morning since I will be up around 5am to go race a kart enduro. Should be nobody on the road.

ok just remember that one of the indicators, EVAP I think or EGR I forget which requires dead cold drive cycle starts. Ambient and engine temps need to be very close, this is when the air pump starts on cold start.
in the end, i just 'drove the car as normal' and they all set after a week or so.
Shop was not able to do a short test on one of those 2 indicators, rest they were able to set with PIWIS in a few minutes.

I get to do this again I just got my renewal notice in the mail (CA requires this every 2 years).

I wonder,
Sounds like this GT3 has many of the "best of breed" go fast upgrades.
Being that the car was CPOd in its current state, can Porsche void that CPO warranty for parts clearly not OEM after the fact.
My armchair law degree says no. But this car presents an interesting scenario as to warranty coverage. What are your thoughts?
