EXACTLY! I am done with spending big $$$ on empty promises.

Reminds me of my Durametric Pro. I get this from them: "Thank you for contacting Durametric. The tool is capable of assisting with the overall brake bleeding procedure in 996 and 997 models, but not yet the 991. There are no dates determined yet for this support in the 991".

Well damn, its not like the 991 came out last month and you haven't figured it out yet. The 991 came out about 10 years ago.

The solution is simple. Just like the US forced OBD-II back in 1996 on manufacturers, force them to make all diagnostic codes available...or else you can't sell your car here. You'd be amazed how they would react to their biggest market.
