    Try 1218 or 1216

    From the experiences I have heard from folks with the 997 seal - so far - yes.

    Sorry, but I think you are going to need a shop a with a PST2 or PIWIS tester - this is an odd one.
  5. Loren
    19 and 21 are the stage 1 fan relays (low speed). 20 and 22 are the stage 2 fan relays (high speed). They are all the same part number so they are all interchangeable.

    I was going from what the sales brochure said - it specifically refers to ESItronic and does not mention Porsche in the brochure. A PST2 is worth what it is worth to you -- depending on how much you use it. Remember that a PST2 only covers cars through MY2004 - so nothing newer and there will not be any updates. Dealer price on a new PST2 was $4000 ($8000 to independent shops) - so I guess that could be your guide.

    I think that (KTS 200) does what the older ESItronic software did. Bosch sold a laptop (or PC desktop) version of software for most European cars that did most of the basic OBD II diagnostics and then a few more "special features" for the models covered. If you notice Porsche is not on their list. Unless you work on those other models on a daily basis it would not make sense to me. JMHO.

    Front shocks are correct for M030. Front springs are correct for M030. Rear shocks are correct for M030. Rear springs should be violet/yellow dots. Rear stabilizer is correct for M030. Time to relax and drive your car... ;)

    :welcome: Please do not double post - I have removed your second post. Also, please try our search feature as this has been covered here. Spoiler light always on, After install of a fixed spoiler

    I think that may drive the DME crazy - and will certainly cause a CEL.

    The Super Blue will stain the brake fluid reservoir (which is the main reason I don't use it). But if you pulled some fluid out with a syringe and it was blue then someone is not telling the truth.
  16. Loren
    Try 542` or 5419
  17. Loren
    See if you can get someone local to read your fault codes for you. Autozone will loan you a reader - write down the codes and report back here.
  18. Loren
    I think you need to shop around for a replacement engine. Try Sunset Imports in Oregon - they sell Porsche Parts ar Dealer Cost plus 15%. There is a link at the top of the page. You will still need to find someone local to install your new engine but I doubt you will find a better price than Sunset Imports. I have worked on Porsche's (primarily my own) for over 30 years. They are very easy to work on provided you have the right tools and knowledge.

    Factory 18" GT3 wheels 8" fronts and 10" rears.

    Yes, you could feel it under braking. If you don't know where the swaybar is (and it's mount then you best take it to a good Porsche shop.
  22. Loren
    The only engine that I know that are "not repairable" are the ones with porous cases. Technically everything other than the case could be reused. I don't think Porsche are any different than any other engine. If parts are overheated and stressed they should be checked and or replaced. IMHO... they are all rebuildable it just depends on how many parts and how time is involved. Porsche's factory rebuilt engines are really a good deal because they are rebuilt to the same specs by people that do that every day -- and (this is big AND) they give warranty on that rebuilt engine. It depends on what you are looking for in your Boxster - but you could buy an engine from a salvage yard too. But that is a crapshoot in my opinion.
  23. Loren
    Look for loose swaybar mounting bolts. That is fairly common.
  24. Loren
    Sounds like you should have the fault codes read then. Where are you located?
  25. Loren
    I run 32/36 on my Bridgestone S03's. The car handles much better (for my driving style) at those pressures. So far I have not had any unusual wear pattern. But then I really don't expect to get much more than 10,000 miles out of the rears...
