    Yes, I think a couple of other members have that set - and recommend it. I see a sale price of $79.00 for that kit.
  2. Loren
    Probably 17 mm rear and 5 mm front.

    Porsche tool 9560 (part no. 000.721.956.00) -- MSRP $209.78 I think you can find a similar tool via third party.

    M415 is wider rear track with spacers.

    Please let the image completely upload before submitting the post - thanks.

    Uh... he posted in the 996 area. PeterC4 -is this a 996 or 997?
  7. Loren
    If you have a misfire you likely have a fault code or two. If you have a code reader read out the codes - some auto parts stores will read your codes for free too. Report back here what your codes are.

    The min, max and middle positions can be tested with a PST2 along with sensor voltage, supply voltages and speed (measured by the ABS sensors). The PST2 can also calibrate the HBA.

    Have you seen this?

    In some cases these problems have been solved by replacing the radio - but in many more the problem was the amplifier.

    Seal Grey is a little lighter to my eye... Seal (left) -- Slate (right)

    On a Boxster - yes.

    Just the center console storage. Small but useful.

    :welcome: You will need to check your paint code as both were available. Seal Grey Metallic is code L6B5 Slate Grey Metallic is code 22D All the TT paint colors are here. TT Maintenance Schedules are here

    While the car is still on the ground - remove the large axle nut. Lift the car and after you have the lower ball joint out move the wheel carrier away from the axle. Support the axle with some wire. Do your strut change then reverse the process - you will need to torque the FWD axle nut to 340 ft/lbs (460 Nm).

    We have added and/or updated TSBs in the following categories today (3 total): Boxster (987) - 1 Cayman (987c) - 1 Carrera (997) - 1

    I am in Morgan Hill (just South of San Jose). If you want I can hook up my PST2 and we can test both fans and both speeds. PM me if you want to do this.
  20. Loren
    The radiator fan fuses are C8 and C10. I doubt they would run at all with the fuse blown. I wonder if you have a bad fan ballast? Where are you located?
  21. Loren
    For the oil problem - have they run a compression test on each cylinder? 1. Likely a badly worn synchro - I would guess a rebuilt/replacement transmission is the only fix. 2. Have a tech check your car for a voltage drain. 4 years is good battery life for any battery (regardless of cost).
  22. Loren
    The kit including the electrical harness, screws, clips etc. is: 996.512.901.02.G2X
  23. Loren
    Yes, you can plot those with the Car Code software. These images I posted ( a year ago) actually came from the Porsche OBD II service manaual.
  24. Loren
    Porsche has had the issue with the crimped hose at least a couple of times. Another possibility is a blow fuse that will shut the vent off. A third possibility is a bad canister/purge valve circuit (that again shuts the vent off - usually you get a CEL with this.
  25. Loren
    No, and I am pretty sure a dealer can not do that with their PST2 or PIWIS tester.
