    The year is not a factor. Standard knobs pull off - optional knobs (leather/aluminum, carbon fiber, wood, etc.) all have set screws.

    I don't think so. Bosch makes the PIWIS for Porsche and they have defended their intellectual property quite often. PIWIS is made in Germany and the volume is so low that I seriously doubt someone would take the time to copy it. Then there are the updates - dealerships/OPCs get updates nightly on the Porsche network.

    According to the TSB 17 mm spacers can be on the rear only of a 20" wheel as long as the wheel is 9 inches wide (not 10 inches).

    You can go the original number (4674) and add or subject by 2. Sometimes that works - sometimes you have to contact a dealer or Becker.

    If it were bad gas - then why does only one cylinder misfires?
  6. Loren
    I would start by checking the coil pack and spark plug on cylinder 1.

    From the Donation page "Once your Donation is verified, it will be processed, and a confirmation e-mail will be sent to your (PayPal) e-mail address. This may take anywhere from a few minutes up to 24 hours." You were upgraded within 2 hours (I was still asleep when your donation came in).

    The people that know how to get in and out of the DME(s) is Durametric. They did/do the research to make their excellent code reader/diagnostic tool work very well. My guess is they know the ins and outs but are not likely to want to take responsibility for you re-programming your car and blowing up the engine. I wouldn't want that responsibility either.

    It is the behind the "alien eye" looking lens in the upper console.
  18. Loren
    That would be a 986 Boxster only. To my knowledge Porsche has never produced a printed manual for the 987 or 997 series cars - only electronic versions.

    No real need to reset the code it will just keep counting up any errors.
  22. Loren
    It varies by state. There is a listing here.

    Fault code 33 Passenger compartment: monitoring sensor faulty I would just watch the frequency counter - right now it has only happened twice. If it continues to happen then you need to replace the passenger compartment monitoring sensor.
  24. Loren
    You can go the original number (5292) and add or subject by 2. Sometimes that works - sometimes you have to contact a dealer or Becker.
