We coded a F32. Found a coding guide and just followed it. I let my friend play with it mostly as it was his car. He was happy with it.

Not exactly coding but, have you seen anything in this software for resetting engine and trans adaptations?

When I bought my cayenne I got the durametric enthusiast and it sucks. Too glitchy. Then I got the iCarsoft POR-II. It's better, but no coding and not very easy to use. So close to 600 bucks in tools that I'm not very happy with.
Where can one find a list of the vehicles compatible with this thing? In addition to my 958, I have a 2017 991.2 that could use it and my 2014 BMW S1000R motorcycle also needs something to reset its service indicator.

No clue what "HKL" stands for. Probably a German abbreviation.



Radio remote control functions and Driver interior button functions options were listed a little bit further down on the list:

It was active for both "one-touch", but inactive for the regular "touch"


same thing for "driver interior button" section:


Thanks for the research. I don't think I have the Comfort Close option on my '11. I'll check again when I get home and report back.

SOOOOO many features I've wished to be able to modify...and a few that I'd change just because! Next time I'm planning on getting to that part of NJ, I'm sending you a PM!

This looks really awesome, but it would be great to see a) what can this do that PIWIS II can't (other than non-Porsches of course) and b) is there anything that can ONLY be done with a PIWIS II. That's pretty crucial information for someone like me ready to plunk down for a tool like this.

The window up/down was also under comfort entry but isn't enabled. So it might not be a requirement.

No problem. I can only meet up on Sundays though.

Yes, I'm curious as well

Same here. A couple of things off the top of my head that I know for sure typically require a piwis are ehybrid clutch flush/adaptations and activating pdk fill-mode. I will report back on whether this can do the hybrid clutch flush shortly and have a buddy with a 991 that I can try the pdk fill-mode on. I know there’s also an air suspension setting in piwis that allows you to modify the normal ride height on some air-equipped p-cars, I can test that on my cayenne too. I’d also like to shut off the external sound generator on my ehybrid for true stealth mode (another piwis only option .)

If it does all of those things then I see no reason really to get a piwis over one of these unless you have a doip car (2018+ I believe) which this won’t work on. OP has already confirmed that the coding abilities are there (it even looks similar to the piwis coding/adaptation menu structures, albeit in English) so that in itself is a huge value.

Played around with it some more tonight...I know it doesn't support the 2018s but maybe in the near future?

Enable hidden menus in the instrument display (boost pressure, acceleration, deceleration, door relock timer, disable start/stop, change the cayenne model logo

So not sure if the module is not programmable or the Launch software has a bug. This is the first time that I've encountered a write code failed when I tried to change a setting.

But in the default programming, "Activation of touch closing function" for the radio remote control is set to active. I tried holding it down (this opens the trunk), I tried double press and holding on the second press (this didn't do anything.

See anything in here?

I've been getting home late lately so haven't had time to test the headlight sensitivity. I have a dashmat to combat the luxor beige glare so it's really bad for me.

Looks like it is the very first entry. Does your car have the multi function steering wheel or sport wheel?
