    The Porsche Carrera service manual says: The coolant system is a closed system - so if the your friends coolant was dirty then something got into it and contaminated it.
  2. Loren
    Did you move the air pump out of the way? and the two fuel lines? Then move the tank towards the engine?
  3. Loren
    Under the dash (to the left of the steering wheel - on US cars) there is a OBD II connector. It will only plug in there one way. After you plug it in - then turn the ignition to "on". It is usually not needed to start the car.

    Why not go with the GT2 6 piston calipers and 350 mm rotors?
  5. Loren
    Fresh air comes in from near the front winshield so the smell must be inside the filter AC/heating housing.
  6. Loren
    Just a caveat here... All part numbers are subject to change without notice. And one link (to a supplier) would do also.
  7. Loren
    Clutch, flywheel, transmission.
  8. Loren
    You will need to PM or email him...

    Hmm... there should not be anything hot enough up front to produce that smell in the cabin air intake. Is the smell in the front trunk?
  10. Loren
    Time to clean your throttle butterfly. This has been covered many times here. Try using search to find the topics.
  11. Loren
    I'm afraid you are stuck as the cam cover helps hold the cams in alignment with the head - so alignment is critical. Porsche only sells them as a set. The labor to replace a head and cam cover will be likely be pretty high. Perhaps you should talk to your dealer and see what they will do for you. BTW... you are talking about the cam cover (item 7) not the heat shield (item 52) - right?
  12. Loren
    What happened to the cam cover? and why would it mot be covered under warranty?
  13. Loren
    Yes, it will snap off. Check the clips and plastic retainers before you put it back on. Sometimes if they have spent a lot of time in the sun they crack or deform.

    12A = MY1999 12B - MY2000 and newer Pull A pillar trim inwards along the roof frame and the windshield.
  15. Loren
    Any pics of the location?
  16. Loren
    Yes. Yes. No.
  17. Loren
    I don't see any problem with reusing them as long as the insulation is not cracked or worn through.
  18. Loren
    Actually, they break the circuit when the wire is worn through.
  19. Loren
    Yes, you will find an AC condenser in front of each radiator behind the bumper.
  20. Loren
    Yes, hydraulic line. Clutch slave cylinder goes here (roughly).
  21. Loren
    I haven't had any screens for 6 years - zero CELs. You need to have your car fault codes read (not all cause a CEL) and you need to track your fuel trims and MAF readings. An independent shop can do this or some OBD II software that run on a laptop can be used. Until then you are shooting in the dark (IMHO).
  22. Loren
    Reboot
  23. Loren
    It should be in about the same postion. Very high near the bell housing. You should be able to follow the hydraulic line to it - it has a loop or two in it.
  24. Loren
    All those questions are answered on their site Durametric.com.
  25. Loren
    There are lots of independent shops in the LA area that have a PST2 or you could buy the Durametric software - it will work on the 993 also.
