    You can not open the TSB because TSB viewing is only allowed for Contributing Members. Contributing Members can view TSBs online, use the Retail Price Search feature, and access the Contributors Only Forum. They can send attachments with PMs, image storage limits are raised for all Contributing Members, RennTech.org email addresses are available and a personal Blog. Contributions help defer the cost of running this site and providing this information to you. No one has to contribute but many members do. Without contributions this site would either have to go subscription or cease to exist.

    For a MY99 Boxster (non S) Porsche only sells a repair kit that includes: bolt, expanding spring and securing clip. The same kit is used for both front and rear - so if you need them for all wheels you would order 4 kits. 996.352.959.01

    Model Year and "S" or normal please?

    No grease points on the suspension.

    Scouser has updated the VIN Decoder. The VIN Decoder is here. Now includes a built in help and explanation of each value. Many thanks to Scouser for his continued efforts, work, and updates to this fine tool! :clapping:

    As of MY02, all Carrera and Boxster models are fitted with belt tensioners and belt-force tensioners. The pyrotechnic ball belt tensioner is combined with the belt-force limiter in one unit. The threshold value for triggering the pyrotechnic belt tensioner is calculated as for the airbag actuation from the sensor signals for vehicle deceleration. The triggering of the belt tensioner during a frontal collision takes place together with the triggering of the front airbags. During a rear collision only the belt tensioner is triggered. After a collision both the airbags and the seat belts are replaced (if triggered).

    Maybe a rock or pebble stuck between the rotor and heat shield?

    Look for some similar posts here and in the Boxster section (same A/C mechanism). I seem to recall some issues with foam or weatherstripping hitting the fan.
  11. Loren
    Most likely something as simple as a microswitch. A PST2 or PIWIS will likely narrow the problem down. Where are you located? Do you know an independent or a friendly dealer with a PST2 or PIWIS?

    Remove the wheel to get better access. Well, you might want to pick up some of the plastic rivets that the fender liner in place - if they are very old they will likely break when removed. I can't remember there being much room to work (if you have big hands like me) but you should have enough room to push it through the hole while you put the rose back on. I wouldn't think it would take an hour - and you might be able to just pull that section of the fender liner back rather than removing the whole thing. So maybe a 3 or 4.
  13. Loren
    As I recall you should be able to get to that by removing the inner fender liner.

    If you mean the rectangular frame that goes around the climate control then it is 996.552.677.00.01C. If you mean what is inside of that frame - then that is the control unit itself - and that will be expensive.

    I am getting the rear spoiler failure light. Spoler does not go up. What should I do? Thanks David Under what conditions? What model year car? Standard, or aftermarket spoiler?
  16. Loren
    Just to clarify... The standard rear tire on MY99-MY01 with 18" wheels was 265. MY02 and newer got 285's. There is no problem running 285's on the standard wheels. Porsche did that on the GT3 Mk1 and I have been running 285 rears on my MY99 car for over 6 years.

    Only Moderators or an admin can change a topic title "after the fact". I have edited the title here.

    There is a TSB on this dated 9-28-01. Basically Porsche changed the heat range from a 5 to a 6 on cars build after August 14, 2001. Any and all replacments are to be the newer plug (heat range 6). The correct plug for all TT and GT2 is 999.170.195.90.

    The alarm system goes through a self-test and a zone test prior to arming. During this preset test the alarm light to flashes at twice it's normal rate (twice per second) until all zones are checked and the alarm goes into "armed" mode. Then the alarm light flashes normally (about once per second).
