Default Service due @ 107K

Newbie here.
I have 997.2 and I got service due in 7 days.
Does anyone know what is the service needed at 107K miles?

I don't have the manuals in the car so I don't know what is required to service it.

Also what is the best way to reset the message? I heard there is no button to use to reset the indicator.

Congrats for actually driving your car. Here's a link to the maintenance checklists:

Some of the service items are mileage based, some are mileage and/or time based. To reset the service warning you'll need one of the diagnostic tools that plugs into the OBD2 port. Porsche uses
PIWIs, most owners use Durametric. There are other cheaper alternatives, I use Durametric.

Thanks guys. I am still not sure what to change other than oil and filter. In the manual I am closest to 100K miles but there is no 107K miles which means time was triggered in this case.

Do I just change oil and filter? Is there different indicator that comes in cluster if another type of maintenance is needed other than oil and filter?

Default Porsche Maintenence - unequal intervals....

Here is all you need for a 997.2:

Every 10K Oil change (or every year)
Every 40K Spark plugs (or every 4 years)
Every 40K Engine Air Filter
Every 40K Cabin Air Filter
Every 60K Drive belt (or every 6 years)
Every 60K PDK clutch fluid (or every 6 years)
Every 120K Transmission oil MT
Every 2 years brake fluid
4 years tire sealant

Some with an MT, like me, experience a jam when going into first.... changing the MT fluid early appears to fix this issue. Many neurotics here change their oil early, I do mine every 5K just because I can. Please don't ask why nor what kind of oil to use... please, don't do this to yourself or all of us... we beg you.

Peace
