Anyone has leads on where I could purchase one of these that would be able to read all codes/reset/etc. for Porsche cars? Are there any specific to Porsches (mainly for 996s on up and Cayennes). Sorry for the dumb questions, just trying to help out a local mechanic. Thanks.

Try www.durametric.com. This is the only non-Porsche OBD that can reset most of the error, airbag lights, etc., but it won't do everything the Porsche tool does. Do a search on the boards and you will find alot of info on them. I bought one and like it, and they continually upgrade the software to add features.

Did a bit of researching here AFTER I posted and realized its either Durametrics for the scanner (sorry for that), but I think that what he really will need is a PST2/PIWIS. For the latter, are they very hard to find (used)? I have seen price range from "less than $3K" to $20K! And then there is the annual subscription for updates that are close to $2.5K/year (this info from 3 years ago..)

Any leads on where I could find a PST2/PIWIS for sale used, but in great condition?
