    Can you take a pic for us?

    That is the part number for the PASM option - for both cars.
  4. Loren
    I disagree - if you can do an oil change then you can do both minor and major service too.

    The front springs are the same part number. The rear springs are different part numbers. I do not know how the rears are different - but is is likely related to rear weight ratio in the Cayman.

    Ok, you have lost me. Your car is a MY03 996 so it's cluster should look like this. Item 4 is the light that lights up when the cruise in ready mode. Where is this other light again?
  7. Loren
    Those are all the connectors and their wire colors on the left seat.

    Did your car have heated seats before? If not the wiring may not be in your harness. or it could be the lumbar support option. Likely need the model and model year from the donor car and the wire colors of the two wires (to look it up).

    Try 8799 or 8797
  11. Loren
    I just ran it again - same number 8825. The radio code will not me on the keys - those are the key numbers. Sorry, looks like you need to call your dealer or Becker.
  12. Loren
    It only lights when the cruise stalk button is pushed.

    They should test the cluster using a PST2. It is possible that it got a voltage spike and is now ruined. If you had over 62.14 miles on the odometer then it can not be reset by a dealer or PST2 (or PIWIS) tester. Only a certified speedometer shop could reset it. Like I said I quest whether the cluster is fully functional - so it needs to be tested. They can clear the airbag fault with a PST2 easily. You need to post the radio serial number in the "Lost Radio Code" thread and I will give you the best guess for your code.

    Item 34?

    As I recall red is the horn and yellow is the airbag.

    Try 9134 or 9132 I was finally able to drive for an hour so I can type the code suggested but they don't seem to work, any other suggestions? Thanks Did you read this thread? There are others suggestions you can try before calling a dealer or Becker (I believe Becker still charges $30 and some dealers are free and some charge).

    It seems to me that easiest source for the center console would be using the phone prep connector and extend the wires down the console (under the carpet). There is both +12 volts switched and unswitched on the phone prep connector. In the engine compartment? Well, you've got the alternator right there so there is lots of power close - but I would suggest a fuse for whatever you plan on connecting. What are thinking about adding in the engine compartment?
  19. Loren
    IMHO of course... If I were to pick the "most reliable" Porsche to own right now it would be a GT3. With a normally aspirated engine that is the same as the 996 turbo it is about as close to being bulletproof as can get. Now a GT3 is a little less "comfortable" to drive than a Cayman, or Carrera, or TT but then that would depend on what you are looking for. Of those three a Cayman would certainly have a lot merits - mid-engine and more HP. I am not sure there is a bad choice there - so any would be okay.

    :lol: :lol: :lol: At this time I only have a 996. It all comes down to what you want to drive a Boxster (987), Carrera and TT are all Porsche's but very different. I suggest you test drive them all...
  21. Loren
    :welcome: Please try our search next time - it works very well... http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...post&p=9056
  22. Loren
    Yes, but that is what it states on the sale page "DME 5.2.2" is non-egas cars only. Remember MY97-99 Boxsters use the same DME.
  23. Loren
    Where are you located? I think you need someone with a PST2...
  24. Loren
    Yes, rolling diameter.
  25. Loren
    Porsche does not recommend 11" wide wheels on the rear of a narrow (if they would fit at all). The tire sizes are okay but I would stick with the 10" rear (on a narrow body car). A 285/30 is fine on a 10" wheel. That is what I am running.
