Accessport Adds Service Reset Options for Porsche Vehicles
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

In the clear, no matter where you live
The COBB Accessport, our performance calibrations and even these functions come with coverage via an executive order from CARB (Full List Here). This means you don’t need to duck and dodge the fuzz or even uninstall before going in for any smog checks. COBB has you completely covered so you can spend more time doing what you love both on and off the track, driving!
Any update on the service/oil-change interval reset feature for the AP3-POR-011, for 991.2 Carrera/Targa? Thank you!
Hi AJ!
Good news, we were behind with updating this blog post but Service Reset is available for the POR-011 and supported vehicles. Simply update your Accessport using Accessport Manager and you’ll see the new menu option under “Troubleshooting”.

Hi sorry to jump in, Can this reset the service reminder light for the new 2025 992.2? some say there is a security gateway that needs to be unlocked first.
Hey there! We have not yet tested on a 992.2 car to verify. Once we have a car in-house we will be able to verify if anything has actually changed for service reset functionality.
Marshall@COBB
Any plans to add 997s to this list of vehicles?
Yes, 997 is on the list. No ETA quite yet, though.
Marshall@COBB
I have a 2018 Macan S and updated the firmware on 8/17/2024. Does it cover this car for service intervals?
Hi William, we have not yet added Service Reset for the Macan. Hopefully soon!
Marshall@COBB
Are there plans to add the service reset option for the AP3-POR-011? Thanks!
Hey Chris! We do plan to add Service Reset for more Accessport part numbers, I do not have an ETA for that at this time.
Marshall@COBB
Have you got time line for the boxster 981? Por-007
Waiting for it to come to the porsche 981! hope it is added soon š
For 2017 Macan Turbo, Can you add the battery reset when replacing a battery and the brake caliper open/close for pads and rotor replacement? Thanks
Not sure, but I will forward the request on to our development team!
Marshall@COBB
I would love to help validate the POR-007 firmware, but Iām in Florida.
When will it be available for AP3-POR-007 (991.1)?
I don’t have a timeline for being added to POR-007, we’re looking to bring in a local car to confirm functionality.
Marshall@COBB
Do you have a similar upgrade in the works for my 2018 Macan S?
Tim Freeman
We do! Our team is working on adding this to POR-009 right now and should have it available for the Macans very soon!
Marshall@COBB
Will this update be available for a 2017 Boxster 2.0?
Yes, we’ll be adding it to the POR-010 Accessport for all 718s as soon as we can.
Marshall@COBB
981 pretty please!
Hey Larry! We have it on the list, need to get a car in the shop to test that it works correctly.
Marshall@COBB
Will the update for the AP3-POR-009 be coming soon as well so I can reset the maintenance cycles on my 2015 Macan S? Otherwise, great addition and looking forward to it.
We are working on adding this to POR-009 right now and should have it available for the Macans very soon!
