Greetings. Hoping for some helpful recommendations for an OBD2 diagnostic and DIY servicing tool for my 2020 Cayenne Turbo. I’ve used similar tools to work on my Audis & Toyota (oil change and service resets, electronic brake retraction, transmission and diff fluid change, ECL diagnostic codes) but this is my first Porsche that has an OBD2 plug and, of course, the OBD2 devices I have won’t work with this modern Porsche.

I’ve researched Rennlist & other forums plenty but haven’t seen any recommendations that instilled confidence the device would fit my needs. The older tried & true devices won’t work on the newer Porsches, a legit PIWIS 3 license is cost prohibitive and the clones are not legal and, I fear, more complicated than my needs justify and the Icarsoft devices get lousy marks for support and clear descriptions of what each one can and cannot do on the different model Porsches.

I’m not opposed to a subscription based product if it’ll do the job for me. Appreciate any thoughts folks can share. 🙏🏻

iCarsoft CR Max.

Scans codes and resets maintenance interval, aka “oil light”.

Could you please give some detail/comparison advantages/disadvantages regarding your recommendation, vs the alternatives?

Sorry, don’t have that. I surfed the internet and googled and made the decision to buy. No regrets.
