Not sure if that is correct title of tool. Looking for a code reader for my 01 996 TT. Can someone tell me what type to buy and if a used one is a good purchase? I have heard they are able to accomodate 3 vin's before they are "used up"?

thank you

Unless you have more than 3 cars, you would want the "enthusiast package" by Durametric. It is managed by the VIN #'s so if you were buying used make sure they have enough VIN's left. From Durametric they are ~ $287 new for the kit

you would need. This tool will read and reset most codes on your car. Some info from their site:

What does it do?

  • Reset service reminders
  • Reads diagnostic trouble codes More Information
  • Displays actual values More Information
  • Shows ECU information More Information
  • Clears diagnostic trouble codes
  • Turns off check engine light
  • Turns off airbag light
  • Activates functions (Drive Links)

What systems does it work on?

  • DME
  • Airbag
  • ABS
  • Tiptronic

  • Alarm
  • Seat Memory
  • Heating & A/C
  • And more...
