  1. Basically they remove the transmission while supporting the engine with a special jack or brace when they change a clutch or do an RMS/IMS repair. It is not that hard with a lift and the proper tools.
  2. You just disconnect the half shafts at the transmission - as RFM said the wheels do not have to come off.
  3. Model and year of your car? The Durametric product can read any Porsche fault codes and many actual values for the OBD II compliant Porsches (late 993 and newer). You can find more information here.
  4. Where are you located? Perhaps there is a board member near you with a PST2 or PIWIS tester.
  5. Is this a US car? because the US/Canada cars are different than the RoW cars.
  6. I sent you information on where to get the manual page you need.
  7. Term 31 is ground. Term 30 is unswitched power (+12 volts)
  8. Model and year of your car please...
  9. There are a total of 76 pages of schematics for a 2005 Cayenne. What exactly are trying to do?
  10. There is a switch in the front latch assembly. That is the likely cause. Better that it doesn't come on - a fairly common failure is that it doesn't turn off and then runs the battery down.
  11. Check you old sensor part number. If is 996.606.124.00 and your car was manufactured prior to January 31, 2000 then you can use the 996.606.125.01 but it will require your DME to be re-programmed for the new style sensor.
  12. Talk to the folks at Wheel Enhancement - they take trade-ins.
  13. Look on the sticker on your drivers door. The first number will be something like 06/97. That is the month and year your car was made/completed.
  14. P0420 40 TWC conversion, bank 1 - above limit Possible fault causes: - Oxygen sensor ahead of and after TWC exchanged - Valve lift fault - Aged oxygen sensor after TWC - TWC faulty If the light is on steady it can be driven -- if the light is flashing do not drive the car.
  15. 1. Insert a plastic spatula between the dashboard and the stopwatch. Lift up the stopwatch until its four clips unclip from the dashboard. 2. Release electrical connector a and pull away from the stopwatch. 3. Turn the stopwatch around, unscrew the four fastening screws, remove the cover and take the stopwatch out of its holder.
  16. On the cars with the misaligned cases RMS leaks seem to happen in less 10,000. So, I won't say you will never have one - but you are well past the area that the problem cars occur at.
  17. If they are the comfort seats then the seat back just pulls off.
  18. P1275 Aging of Oxygen Sensor Ahead of Catalytic Converter (Cylinders 1 - 3) - Below Lower Limit P1276 Aging of Oxygen Sensor Ahead of Catalytic Converter (Cylinders 4 . 6) - Below Lower Limit Those sensors are Ahead of the cat. If it were my car I would clear the CEL and see if they come back. If they do then just replace the ones that have faults.
  19. Not really - you need to pull the transmission to see if it is the RMS or IMS... or both.
  20. Not for the main seal but I think they drain some to do the IMS.
  21. Well, it's not very fast to start with - that is normal. You might try cleaning the sliding rail parts. Don't grease them - maybe just some light silicone spray if anything.
  22. Here is more than you probably want to know: "Auxiliary Air Pump To reduce pollutants contained in the exhaust gas during the warm-up phase and to achieve the emission limits of the roll test in the USA, USA vehicles have a secondary air system. For this reason, an electric air pump has been mounted on the left-hand side of the engine compartment. This pump is activated by the DME control unit and blows the additional air through air ducts to the discharge valve. A pneumatic switching valve which is closed when the secondary air system is inactive thus preventing the flow of additional air is installed between the air pump and the discharge valve. Functioning If the engine is started in a temperature range between minus 10.5° C and plus 45° C, the secondary air system is activated for a period of time dependent on the start temperature (min. 50 seconds, max. 179 seconds). The secondary air system is only activated if the following engine-related operating conditions apply: • Engine load (TL) between 0.7 ms/rev, and 4.7ms/rev. • Air mass (Ml) not greater than 300 kg/h • Engine speed between 680 rpm and 2,800 rpm • Altitude adaptation factor greater than 0.76 corresponding to less than 2,400 meters above sea level."
