    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.
  8. 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.

    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.
  14. 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.

    Check your option codes under the front hood. As far as I know all cars were delivered with either standard suspension (no option code in most cases) or sport suspension M030.
  18. Loren
    Ok, we need the color (or colour in your case) dots on the spring. Should be two color dots together for spring type and for spring tolerance.
  19. Loren
    Try 6391 or 6389
  20. Loren
    Actually the Option Codes Lookup is available to all Members - just not Guests.

    Boxster Front: 298 mm Rear: 292 mm Boxster S Front: 318 mm Rear: 299 mm Boxster S uses the same brakes as the Carrera.

    I have not put AMG wheels on my 996. You would need spacers that are 20 to 25 mm -- if the bolt patterns would match up. I personally wouldn't recommend any spacer over 17 mm - just too much stress on bearings and bolts. There are lots of used and low cost wheels for Porsches.

    No the control unit is for mixing the low beam with the high beam when the brights are on. Auto-leveling can not be retrofit - it is only available from the factory. The only trick to adding the control unit is having a pin tool for the electrical socket - or being willing to splice into an existing wire.

    Well, the actual replacement would be pretty easy. Just remove the front bumper and remove and replace the AC condensor. I would guess I could do it less than 1 hour. But since you have had a leak they will likely need to recharge you AC and test that it will hold pressure. If it was open for long you may also need a new AC dryer (desiccator). Do you know the part number for the air con radiator? Thanks 996.573.111.00 Condenser -- US MSRP $351.89 See our friends at Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) for a much better price.
