    I would check for worn or bare wires under the seat. Be sure to take the key out of the ignition so you do not get an airbag light.

    The best (IMHO) Boxster guys in the Bay Area are RMG Enterprises in Mountain View. Talk to Bob Grigsby there and they will give you an honest evaluation on your motor mount. RMG ENTERPRISES 960 W. El Camino Real Sunnyvale, CA 94087 (408) 738-2060 For all the other stuff I have to agree - easy DIY stuff.

    MOST started in MY2003.

    Interesting - there is no switch in the pedal area on my car. Are you sure? If your Carrera has Cruise Control then you would have two switches on the brake pedal arm.

    XenonMods was removed from our Special Offers section here after delivery and responses became very "spotty".

    It is the same procedure as the 996. The clutch must be bled in the "fully depressed" position (always move it slowly by hand to avoid damaging the seals).

    As long as the CEL is on steady you can drive the car. If it is flashing do not drive the car. P1117 indicates you have a problem with that sensor. It could be as simple as a corroded connector, broken wire or a bad sensor. There is no need to replace any sensors other than a bad one. As I said, check the wiring first - clean the connector, reset the code and see if it comes back.

    Two if you have cruise control - one otherwise.

    http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=4807 The old NAV unit comes out by removing the two switch panels on either side of the NAV and then press on the two spring clamps on either side of the NAV unit and pull it out. Be carefully of the wires connected on the back as you pull it out.

    Thanks! Lots of great technical contributors here. All the donation money goes into running the site (and keeping it running) -- so no beer for me. :lol:

    You can also PM members Itzkirb and karlooz
  13. Loren
    Yes, your engine number is later so it should have the new seal.

    Carefully pull the mirror glass out of the metal clips. Disconnect the electrical plug connection. Press lugs (arrows) of the lower cover and remove it. Install is the reverse.

    I do not see a different tip for the GT3 (standard) vs. GT3 RS in the parts list. I think the 987 tip is a single inlet that is held on with a clamp (and it just looks like it is a dual outlet). On the GT3 (997) there are actually two outlets in the muffler and the tip is held on with two hex nuts.

    Go to advanced search and click on the link "Advanced Usage Help". (i.e. +apple -juice --find posts with 'apple' but not 'juice'; "Some Words" --Find posts with the phrase 'some words of wisdom', 'some words' but not 'some noise words') This + and - as well as the quotes procedure is used by Google and most all the major search engines.

    Uh... did you check page 298 of your owners Manual?
  19. Loren
    What you want does not exist. There are diagrams for the emissions side and their are diagrams for the turbocharger side - plus there are still more vacuum lines for some controls. This is should help some... (all the turbocharger connections)
  20. Loren
    You can try it but I don't think it will work on a 3.4. You would need to custom program the DME.
  21. Loren
    Do you have the part numbers so I can check the list?
  22. Loren

    Try doing a search here next time - this has been covered many times. Hold the button to lower the window and then continue holding it another 10 seconds. Do the same for the window up again holding it for 10 seconds after it is all the way up. You one-touch operation should then be restored.
  24. Loren
    It is pretty much the same as the Carrera DIY - just different part numbers.
  25. Loren
    Porsche only specs for "their" wheels so you would need to try them. And, make sure you have appropriate clearances on the brake rotors, struts, brake hoses/cables, fenders, etc.
