DIY Service For The Hands-on Crowd
For some of us, standard vehicle maintenance is the short time where we can usually escape our better half and either get some quiet time or con our kids to hold a flashlight and turn it into bonding time. In the age of modern cars, that practice has become somewhat archaic with oil change and service reminders becoming digital and delivered through a high-tech cluster, forcing you to go to the dealership to get the reminder reset using their proprietary tools. Service Reset for Porsche vehicles at a dealer or specialty shop can be an unnecessary hassle and cost for DIYers. Those days are quickly sunsetting, and for some of you, that day is today!
We are happy to announce that we’ve now added the ability to perform both your own Oil Service Reset and Inspection/Main Service Reset, all from your existing COBB Accessport and at the comfort of your own home or garage/shop of choice without any additional costs or fees!
Clean and Simple Service Reset Steps
To use these functions, simply update your Accessport’s firmware and head over to the troubleshooting menu, there you’ll find a new option of “Reset Service Due Dates”. There, you’ll be presented with options for resetting the standard Oil Service interval as well as the more in-depth Inspection/Main Service reset.
Choosing one of those options allows you to enter in the Date/Month that the service was performed and push out the next vehicle service reminder to the next standard interval of mileage or time for your specific vehicle:
- If Oil Service Reset is performed, this will set your next service date 1 year and 10,000/12,000 miles (dependent on vehicle) from the date you entered
- If Inspection Service Reset is performed, this will set your next service date 2 years and 20,000/12,000 miles (dependent on vehicle) from the date you entered
