    As I recall the CD Changer wires go under the bracket. Look on the back side of that body wall for a rubber plug/gromment.

    I don't set a set screw for the shift knob so it must be a pull off one. You need to twist and pull the knob to get it off. The knob is usually pretty tight - so this would have been easier if if was done when the shifter was still assembled.

    The only leather grey choices for MY99 were graphite grey and space grey. You could always go tot a Porsche club event and see who has the same color interior as yours and ask them.

    The Porsche part number is: 996.106.447.01. If you have a cap with part number (on the top of the cap) 996.106.447.00 you need to replace it with the .01 cap. Most, if not all, of the 00 caps leak. US MSRP is $17.45 (as of June 2007).

    The switch pretty much works or it doesn't. Check it with an ohm meter.

    Have a look at our "Quick Menu". http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?a...=maint_menu_car

    To remove the CD storage tray - open the CD tray and remove all the CDs. Then grab both sides with your hands and pull. There might be a snap when it comes out - but that is how it is removed. More detail on the replacement "shelf" is here

    I agree with wdonovan - the main headlight switches are know to wear out and fail causing erratic light behavior.

    The Durametric tool can not program the DME or any options. It can only reset fault codes and show actual values. On the newer cars (Cayenne, 987, 997) some options are "chargeable" so they require an IPAS code with a PIWIS tester. I know on the Cayenne the compass option must be paid for before Porsche will issue the IPAS code to unlock it. I don't think OBC requires a code on the new cars but I suspect the Chrono option does. In any event you will need a PIWIS tester to change any programming.

    Try 1041 or 1039
  11. Loren
    Try 0398 or 0396

    If your dealership looks at the RoW side of their parts list - the numbers are there - usually in a kit.
  13. Loren
    Yes, the TSBs get updated and your owners manual does not.
  14. Loren
    If you mean the coilsovers - yes and no. The GT3 is a 2WD and the TT is 4WD - so you have front and rear weight differences. The GT3 front springs are likely too light for the weight in the front of the TT. You should be able to accomplish pretty much what you want with the coilovers and swaybars.

    My guess would be an IMS bearing failure that took the chain with - or a piece (of something like bearing) broke off an jammed the chain. You won't really know until you open the engine.

    There is no need to send me 3 PM's and make a post here. If you read the Donation page we ask you to give us the email address that you used to register here (so that we can find you and upgrade your account). You were sent an email stating that we need your "registration" email also. We also state that in make take 24 hours to update you (once we have your registration email address). We are not necessarily in the same time zone as you are - and we have to sleep too. Your account has been upgraded.
  17. Loren
    Yes there is a panel behind the rear seats. Please do a search here as this has been covered before.
  18. Loren
    You will need to contact your dealer or Becker then.

    Behind the lower center console is a plug for telephone prep. On that plug is switched +12volts, unswitched +12 volts, ground and mute. A lot of folks hardware to the the unswitched +12 volts and ground.

    :lol: it is the other way around - Porsche leaves it powered so that you can put their trickle charger on the car.
  21. Loren
    :welcome:
  22. Loren
    Thanks Richard!!
  23. Loren
    Try code 3002 or 3000
  24. Loren

  25. Loren
