Durametric can reset oil lamp. Oddly, I found that while the durametric can do some crazy things, there are modules that it has no idea how to talk to - for instance, the suspension module.

Yeah, still not worth it to me until they can make it way more capable like the VCDS for Audi.

Don't mean to go off-topic here, but can you program the key to roll down the windows when you hold down un-lock?

mrd - you are not in the US, correct?

Does anyone else's do this? Mine does not; would love to have this programmed in if it is possible.

There's no tune needed if we're just installing the flash on a bone stock GT4, though, correct? In that case, we can buy the Accessport directly from the website?

Also, one more vague question that will probably get a vague answer... But what kind of impact have you guys noticed these flashes having on the longevity of NA engines like these? I know the GT4 in particular hasn't been around long enough to probably have a good answer to that in any case, but figured I'd give it a shot.

Carrera S motor that the GT4 uses has been around a few years so there is probably at least some indication on reliability with a tune.

True, but from what I recall, I don't think that Cobb began offering tunes on this engine until the GT4 was released. Could be wrong, though.

My UK car does this as well as standard. Check your Manual on Windows Opening/Closing.

Wasn't meaning to call any question dumb. I'm happy with both my Cobb tunes and have no issues. To my totally amateurish mind the cars don't feel like they're being stretched unhealthily at all. Get the impression Cobb and their partners (I have one OTS map and one Fabspeed protune) keep things within safe parameters provided the correct octane fuel is used.

Question: COBB Accessport to go with IPD, TB, Air Filters and Catted Headers.

Does COBB have a standard tune for these mods? Do the standard tune get rid of the CEL from the TB upgrade or do you need to go Protune?

Thanks.
