Hey if it is ideal, they why mess with it. Consider yourself fortunate.

A standard code reader won't give you enough information. You should have a Porsche shop look at it. I assume you mean "idle" not ideal and there are several issues such as an air leak, bad air mass sensor, or bad air oil separator that can set a check engine light and not be noticeable in daily driving.
