Hello all!
I have just serviced my 2006 Boxster and it seems the service can only be reset by using the computer or similar tools (Durametric and so). I thought it would be a combination of buttons but not. For those living in SoCal (Orange County), do you have any advice? Any shop that will not charge is too much to ask? Thanks in advance! Andrés |

@Cairo94507...agreed ! Once upon a time Autozone (other Parts houses as well) would scan & reset your obdll trouble codes for Free/ no obligation to purchase parts. The dealers here in CA somehow forced them to stop. Dealers are Notorious for Scan fees; like taking your Expedition in (under warranty) for a bad EGR. The $90 part was covered (I already pre-scanned the EGR problem with my Code Reader)...they slapped a Scan fee of $127 on the warranty invoice, said they don't accept cust'r scans (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)
