Love the way you left a bottle of oil in the frunk.
I just noticed that too, we did learn though the porsche coolant system is a pain to bleed.
Got most of the wiring figured out to reuse alot of the OEM relays and other components. Loads of testing to do once we can get back to driving off site.
Hi Tom, fighting here a 2010 Porsche so maybe you can help. Did you need tot tackle checksums? I got left the PSM / ABS to satisfy.
What is the logic in the bottle of oil and the bleeding of the coolant system?

The Porsche Boxster is one of the first ones with canbus being implemented more and more. Nothing was required to keep the ABS system happy, only the signals were required for the gauges cluster.

So we have the gauges working, only the fuel level gauge and stupid error light on the coolant to fix.
Attached is the .dbc file that is used.
Is this DBC in the meantime a bit more expanded?
