Information: The procedure described must be applied when a control unit has to be replaced and the tester function Control unit replacement cannot
be used.
Information: - When the transmission is renewed/replaced, the adaptation values must be reset using the PIWIS tester 9718. It is expected that this
function will not be implemented until tester software V8.0 is available:

The instructions of the Porsche System Tester have highest priority.
