  1. When Porsche went to the newer (dot matrix) cluster you now have to turn OBC on in BOTH the cluster and DME. On older cars it is just in the cluster.
  2. Outside temperature sensor.
  3. Please do not double post.
  4. As I recall you unscrew the locking button then it just pulls off (hard). When you install press on in the correct position until properly in contact. The twisting lock must engage with lock on shift lever.
  5. It is easy to do with a PST2 or a PIWIS tester - this has been covered here many times (with pictures).
  6. Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost
  7. With a diagnostic tool like the Durametric Software or a PST2 or a PIWIS tester. These tools can read actual values of the MAF air flow as well as fuel trims.
  8. Not as long as the chip is not right in front of the sensor.
  9. Yes, if you just plug them in they will work. If you want the low beam to rotate up with the high beam (like the factory units) then you will need to splice in the control units. Search here for a link to the TSB describing the full install.
  10. Looks like that thing needs headers and a sport exhaust to me... :lol: :lol: :lol:
  11. Maybe a dealer will let you compare parts?
  12. It comes up as "unknown part number" in the system. What is it or where did it come from? The first part of the under is consistent with a 993 coil spring (set).
  13. The switch is on the brake pedal (under the dash).
  14. Have you tried asking the Durametrric folks? They usually answer emails pretty fast.
  15. I wave or flash my headlights and about half the Porsche drivers look at me like "do I know you?" and don't reciprocate :lol: Oh well, I'll just continue to be the idiot that flashes and waves at other Porsche owners (my 30th year as Porsche owner and 29 years in PCA).
  16. Start - stop, start - stop , start - stop.... different faults takes differing amounts of the drive cycles to clear. You can also clear them with the Durametric Software, or find a shop or dealer with a PST2 or PIWIS tester.
  17. The Durametric Software is based on the exact same tests (and result codes) that are run with Porsche's proprietary PST2 and PIWIS systems. The general market scanners are intended for "all cars" and don't have the additional model specific information that the Durametric, PST2, and PIWIS have.
  18. Sorry, I had a typo in the part number. I see a retail price of $382.63 each - so Sunset's price should be good.
  19. There is only one seal (gasket) that goes all the way around the front and the side windows for the hardtop.
  20. 996.631.036.00 reflector - right side (for car without headlight washers) 996.631.036.01 reflector - right side (for car with headlight washers)
  21. I assume the tool can be had from a dealer. Any idea what it costs? Or does anyone have one I can borrow? Jeff (Tool Pants) has one.
  22. 997.111.105.00 -- exhaust manifold cylinders 1-3 (X51) 997.111.106.00 -- exhaust manifold cylinders 4-6 (X51)
