From the few cars I've read out it seems pretty normal.

It looks like your programming operations is 2.

Cars leave the factory with a 0 or a 1. This is the number of software program updates that the car has received. Software updates change this number. I believe either your dealership did a factory flash update on the ECU (which is possible), or there has been a aftermarket flash.

Some vehicle recall campaigns require a reprogram of the ECU performed at the dealer using the stock MAP files stored in the PIWIS tester. This reprogram advances the counter one digit and is only an indication of the number of times the programming has been overwritten. The counter gives no indication as to whether it was a tuner or a dealer who performed the last programming operation and is not all that Porsche would look at to see if an ECU has been modified by a tuner.

Regardless, there has been a reflash.

BTW...I did not mean to alarm you. A reflash is not necessarily bad. The ECU may get overwritten from the factory or during a service by the dealership. I simply am stating that the ECU reads a reprogramming...it could mean either a factory update or an aftermarket flash.
