    Try a little patience please... it is a busy time of year for everyone... Take the headlight out and checked that the connector part that stays in the car (when the headlight is out). See if it has any bent pins -- or that a pin (or two) has come loose and is not connecting?

    On most all late model Porsches: Term 15 = switched 12 volts Term 30 = unswitched 12 volts Term 31 = ground

    PSE on an 04 GT3?

    Loren replied to charlesl's topic in 996 GT3

    If the mufflers are Porsche parts then they will have a Porsche logo and part number tag on them.

    Please do not double post. You already posted this in the TT section. The 996 Carrera and TT use a very different clutch hydraulic system. The TT use a separate clutch reservoir while the 996 Carrera shares the brake fluid reservoir. The TT uses Pentosin and the 996 Carrera uses brake fluid.

    Are you sure that it is a Porsche part? not a third party? Can you give us part number(s)?

    These could be damaging to the TWC if your CEL is flashing - so keep that in mind. A car with a flashing CEL should not be run or driven. Recent refueling? bad fuel? Any recent work - like spark plug replacement? If so, check for cracked coils or poorly connected cable/coils. Any smoke from the exhaust - like oil burning?

    If your car had the US M030 suspension then the swaybars would not change - as they are the same. For a full RoW M030 you need new struts, springs and bump stops. Why not approach the dealer and point to the "misunderstanding" and ask what they can do to rectify the problem? Realizing that you still have parts to buy... why not suggest you but the parts and they give you a break on the labor? Just a suggestion...

    That will likely work - but I haven't tried it.

    I would take the each sensor out the picture one at a time by unplugging the senor and using a jumper wire in it's place. I would do all four sensors this way - there is always a chance a rear sensor decided open. This should help narrow down the problem. If you have four jumpers in place and still get the light then you know the problem is in the wiring to the cluster.

    1. The screen comes out (with a snap) so protect any painted surfaces. On a few older cars it may tear - but they were pretty cheap as I recall. 2. Make sure you do not go over 20 PSI as you could damage brake seals. You start with the right rear because it is the farthest away and has the longest line. It might take close a minute to see clear clean brake fluid. And... you do realize there are two bleed valves on each caliper. One will likely have very little fluid and the other will bleed more like a normal car.

    Look at the wheels and tires for a Cup car - those are about as wide as you can go. Some fender rolling and suspension adjustments would be needed to run Cup car widths. Also, don't forget that the more corning force you can achieve - the more oil will slosh into the cylinder heads away from the pickup. Look at the X51 kit parts and or Brey Krause's solutions so that you don't oil starve your engine.

    Check the cables in the front trunk at the CD Changer. There is a left channel and right channel cable (as I recall). Could be a bad connection there.

    On a 986/996 they are held in by screws. In looking at the 987 parts list I do not see any screws - so they may just be glued in.

    Yes, but you will need to run a wire from the sending unit to the cluster. Do a search I think Tool Pants covered this before.

    The latch is very similar to the latch used on the 986 and 996. There is a DIY adjustment procedure in the 996 DIY Common Fixes section. But... since the car is under warranty why not let your dealer fix it?

    LOL... I think not I learn something new every day. Many times from other knowledgeable folks here.

    Sorry, no. Different engine and exhaust system.

    Those are twp piece wheels and the outer rim is not painted - nor are the bolts. To paint it properly the wheel needs to be disassembled, painted and then re-assembled with the proper torque sequence on each bolt (IMHO).

    As does TSB 4440 - for each model.
