  1. You might talk a dealer into giving you the code or you can pay Becker $35 for the code.
  2. If your VIN is below these numbers you likely need a new striker (per TSB 4/99 5726 New Door Latch Striker). 99 _YS 62 0622 Coupe 99 _YS 65 1073 Cabriolet
  3. Th emergency release cable is behind the right front wheel well liner. It has been covered many times here. You just need to reach in there and pull the cable.
  4. Those are Aerokit II sideskirts - as they should be for your MY car.
  5. 1. Try retraining the window. Hold the button down until the window is all the way down then continue hoding it for another 10 seconds. Do the same after raising the window. 2. If you get a honk it is because an alarm zone is still open. Common causes are: 3rd party radio, broken microswitch in the center console, broken microswitch in the front (or rear) trunk. You need to find a shop with the Durametric Software, a PST2, or PIWIS tester and a simple test will tell you exactly where the open zone is. 3. The seats are not the airbag circuit - the seatbelt buckles are. The same software above can tell you where the problem is with your airbag light too.
  6. If they are factory then they should be Aerokit II sideskirts.
  7. Aerokit (I) Cup is for the MY99-MY01 cars. Aerokit II is for MY02 and newer cars. There is a special wing for Cabriolet's that goes with the aerokits. What MY is your car and what do you want to accomplish?
  8. Send me your VIN in a PM here and I will look it up for you and see what it says.
  9. WKD 986 021 00 Boxster Owners Manual MY00 -- MSRP $30.22. The last one I bought from Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) was $18.00.
  10. Have the code read before you turn it off. My bet (on a car that old) is a seatbelt buckle -- see the TSB.
  11. 996.343.043.23 does not come up as a currently valid part number. Chances are it is the front shock for a C4 or C4S.
  12. There is nothing wrong with your O2 sensors - they are telling what the problem is -- they are not the problem. Think of the O2 sensor like the smoke detector in your home. When the smoke detector goes off it is because it senses smoke - very rarely is it the cause of the smoke. Chances are that your K&N filter was over oiled and you got an oil film on the MAF. I suggest that you remove and clean the MAF first. The procedure has been described here many times - so please do a search.
  13. Well, the little jumper spot on the fuse box didn't come out until MY01 so I would try a Battery maintainer in the lighter. All you need is enough power to pop the hood. If that doesn't work you can use the emergency release cable.
  14. PM me your VIN and I will do a lookup see what it says. Porsche's database and documentation has varied over the years so sometimes it is difficult to find information on cars over 25 years old.
  15. 996.505.426.00.70C Right rear bumper guard (in rally black).
  16. Rear shock for a MY04 or newer C4S Coupe (only).
  17. The AC condenser sits in front of the cooling radiators. It covers maybe 95% of the front area of the radiator. Cooling air is expected to pass through the AC condenser and then through the cooling radiators - so if enough frontal area of the AC condenser is damaged it would have an effect on engine cooling. If you haven't taken the front bumper off to clean the debris from the condensers and radiators this should likely be done too. Besides you will need to take the bumper off to replace the damaged AC condenser.
  18. Item 7 - 996.559.401.00.G2X Left Roof Edge Strip (unpainted) 996.559.402.00.G2X Right Roof Edge Strip (unpainted) Item 8 - 996.559.721.00 Left Gasket 996.559.722.00 Right Gasket Item 9 - 996.559.405.01 Adapter (10 per car) Item 10 - 996.559.403.01 Clip (10 per car) Item 11 - 996.559.729.00 Bracket for flap (4 per car) Item 12 - 996.559.501.00.G2X Flap Front (2 per car) 996.559.503.00.G2X Flap Rear (2 per car)
  19. The only time the part numbers change is if you are in a right hand drive country - or if they are Litronics.
  20. I am trying to tell you that the number printed or stamped on a part is not necessarily the Porsche part number to order that part. In some cases it is the molded pieces part number. Ask for pics of the front and back of the headlights. On the back look for broken attachment tabs or a broken electrical socket. On the front make sure they are the "clears" you are looking for and that they are not scratched or discolored.
  21. 996.631.064.20 is likely the subassembly part number for the unassembled case. It does not come up as a valid (orderable) part in the system.
