Default Foxwell NT520 Pro 2017 Macan

Hey all,

Just completed an oil change on my 2017 GTS. I recently acquired a Foxwell NT 520 Pro to work on it and my BMW. The latest software in it will reset the oil change, interim service and major service reminders individually. Durametric doesn’t have this capability yet, and generally is lacking on newer Porsche’s. The Foxwell will also show over rev information on my 997 Turbo and perform all Durametric functions on it. Very impressed.

Thought I would let you guys know in case anyone was shopping for a scan tool.

But will it register a new battery in the Macan? Supposedly, even the latest iCARSoftPOR V2.0 won't.

Is this from actual member reports? I emailed their support a couple months ago and they told me POR v2.0 can reset the battery.

No, it's from the U.S. Tech Rep. for iCARSoft. The unit will register Porsche batteries for all models EXCEPT the Macan...Just our Luck. They are working on a solution. https://rennlist.com/forums/porsche-...acement-2.html See post #17.

I checked out the battery registration with the tool. On the menu I can put in the AH, type of battery and serial number. I didn’t go all the way and write the values as I haven’t actually replaced the battery. But it looks like it can do it.

I also tried lowering the ride height. I can get into the calibration screen but can’t seem to be able to figure out how to change the base values.

Durametric works just fine on our ‘16 95B-T to reset service intervals.
