    Porsche changed their "approved" oils list a few years ago. 0W-40 and 5W-40 are now the only "approved" oil weights. But then I know folks that have been using 15W-50 since day one.
  2. Loren
    I would start by checking the connections.

    I have deleted your redundant post in the 993 section (please re-read the Board Rules/Guidelines about cross-posting). 993.362.114.00 are 7J x 16 ET 55 mm 993.362.118.01 are 9J x16 ET 70mm Boxster 16 wheels are spec'ed by Porsche as: 6J x 16 ET 50 mm 7J x 16 ET 40 mm So you might get the fronts to fit but the rears likely will have too much wrong offset.

    See the post just above yours "There have been a few of these. Have someone with a PST2 or PIWIS look at your CDR23 fault codes. The problem is usually a bad radio or bad amp (I think I've heard of more bad amps)."

    Perhaps the CD Changer was already turned on in your car? Or perhaps they are turning them all on now? The TSB instructions clearly state to "Program the CD Changer" and verify that it is in the MOST option list.
  6. Loren
    You can't just plug it in and have it work. Once all the correct cables are connected you have to hook up a PIWIS tester and "turn on" the new device(s).

    Talk to the folks at Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) but I think you need to state the lock number when ordering.

    997.107.019.90 Return line -- MSRP $126.43 My parts list says it is a special order item from Porsche MotorSport.

    The one off the oil tank and the one off the two oil pumps? You do realize they are the same as a standard 997 GT3?

    Purge valve EVAP components The purge canister is behind the right front wheel well liner. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=13955

    Look at your option (under the front bonnet) and see if your option code is M490 ot M680.
  15. Loren
    Please read Orient Express's DIY (in the link he gave you above). It has the company and phone number near the top of the DIY.

    Please do not post AND send me a PM - you just make double work. And, please DO NOT post to multiple forums (more work) -- Re-read the Board guidelines about this! You will need to tell us the name on your amp - it will be BOSE or Harmon.

    I don't know why your oil would be green - has a dealer ever changed it? Here are the locations (the other drain is just on the other side of that cross member.

    Brake Fluid

    Loren replied to normank's topic in 997 GT3, GT3 RS

    Flush, bleed, change -- basically all the same. You put new fluid in the brake fluid reservoir and push out the old fluid at each wheel (and clutch) bleed point. There is a DIY here.

    If you try several times in a row the system locks you out for 1 hour. If the numbers I gave do hot work then you will likely need to contact a dealer or Becker. Becker charges to look up your code and so do some dealers.
  20. Loren
    Try 1866 or 1864
  21. Loren
    So no after market alarms or rewiring on the switch?
  22. Loren
    Yes, most of the time it is a +2 or +4 or -2 or -4 from the first number.
  23. Loren
    I was asking about the wiring to the ignition switch...
  24. Loren
    Thanks Loren. I actually just pulled my deck to get the serial number off of it- it is SN W5021420. If I had known it was this easy to remove, I would have just done so from the start :). If you want to try to get a code for me, I'd appreciate it. If it doesn't work, I can try to contact a dealer Monday, but there are no local dealers to me- the closest is at least an hour away :(. How much does Becker charge, do you know? Thanks again. Joe PS- Just FYI- once the radio reads "code", there is no TP button, just numerical 1-0, so it must be a different procedure for the 210. That's what I had a hard time trying to find. Try 4674 or 4672 Last time I heard Becker charged $35.
  25. Loren
    I can try to get your code - that is all my program works about 95% of the time. On CDR-220 you get the code by holding down the TP button while you power on - then scroll to the serial number using the right radio know. I do not know if the same works on a CDR-210. The serial number is also on the back of the radio but you will need to have the Becker radio removal keys for that. Of course you could call Becker Monday and pay them to look up your code or try to talk a friendly dealer into giving it to you.
