    The clutch pedal bad news is - no. The brake pedal however can be adjusted by adjusting the pushrod.
  2. Loren
    They exist -- sorry, we just don't have them.
  3. Loren
    Perhaps this is what you are doing? In-dash Spoiler (Tail) Switch Mod

    Jonas, Have a look at Carrera TSB 2005 Carrera 4 – Running Out of Fuel. I think this same principle applies to TT since it has the same fuel tank configuration (due to 4 wheel drive).
  5. Loren
    I think a re-calibration might be the first thing I would try - especially since it is so consistent.

    All TSBs are available here for viewing by Contributing Members.

    The full Aerokit Cup factory directions (as well as the Aerokit II) are in Porsche TSBs. Contributing Members can view TSBs online, use the Retail Price Search feature, 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.

    Correct. The MOST network and controllers do not exist in his car. In this case he is much better off to go aftermarket.

    ATE Super Blue is the exact same fluid at ATE Type 200 (which is clear to yellow). The properties are identical. ATE Type 200 is appoved by Porsche and Super Blue is not - go figure. Changing out the brake booster is not a small job - because if you have an older car some changes have to be made to fit the newer version. The TSB and service manual say it about a 3 hour job. Perhaps you should look for an independent shop?

    Have you ever had the fuel tank, fuel level sensor or instrument cluster replaced? If so, it sounds like they did not calibrate your fuel level sensor. If none of those have been replaced then you could have a bad wiring connection (fuel sensor to instrument cluster), a bad fuel sensor, or a bad cluster. The fuels sensor is with the fuel pump in the tank - so even inspection will be a pain. To calibrate the fuels sensor they need to empty the gas tank, fill it with an exact amount of fuel (28 liters) and then use a PST2 or PIWIS to set the calibration.

    If that is the problem, you will want to adjust the front bumper cover not the front trunk lid.
  12. Loren
    Your clutch is hydraulic so wear should have little or no effect on height/feel. When was the last time your brake/clutch fluid was changed? If it is over 2 years - then it needs to be changed and both the brakes and clutch system bled. It sounds like you have air (or possibly) a leak in the system.
  13. Loren
    Yes the hubs are different but I don' think the calipers are different - except for color. I've seen C4 (silver) calipers on a C2.
  14. Loren
    If you have to replace the control module then the program (with access codes) will need to be transferred with a PST2 or PIWIS. If the transfer fails for some reason then a dealer will need to get an IPAS code from Porsche to program the new module.
  15. Loren
    Those lights are controlled by the alarm/central locking controller (under the drivers seat on LHD cars). You might want to check the connections. The functions are easily tested with a PST2 or PIWIS.
  16. Loren
    Yes, most likely.
  17. Loren
    Try JeffClark@sunsetimports.com
  18. Loren
    Yes, they should as long as the model types are the same (i.e. C2-C2, C4-C4, C4S-C4S).
  19. Loren
    I do the same and I don't recall it ever removing the orange square when using the browser back button. You would need to reload (refresh) the View New Posts page for that to happen. I always just click on View New Posts again and it shows me (with orange squares) the unread posts.

    Replacement door handles (in leather) run about $375 US.

    900.219.009.30 engine drain plug -- MSRP $3.10 (as of June 2006) 900.123.106.30 sealing ring -- MSRP $0.37 The parts list does not show either plug (fill or drain) on a 6 speed transmission. 900.124.025.02 front axle drain plug -- MSRP $4.90
  22. Loren
    Could be... try wiggling it and see if there is any change.
  23. Loren
    Open the window slightly and see if the whistle stays or disappears. Some other common causes of this type of noise have been a mis-aligned front trunk lid and misaligned gas flap.
  24. Loren
    They can only be reset with a PST2 or PIWIS tester. 33 - no passenger compartment monitoring -- Replace passenger compartment monitoring sensor. 60 - central locking limit position locked not reached -- Possible cause of fault - Central locking switch faulty - Short circuit to ground/open circuit in wiring between the alarm system control module, central locking switch or door locks - Driver's/passenger's door lock faulty - Control module faulty Most of the troubleshooting tests for fault 60 require more alarm tests using a PST2 or PIWIS tester. I would not replace that fault 33 passenger compartment monitoring sensor until the tests are run as you could have a bad control module.
  25. Loren
    US or RoW car please? Do all the other lights work okay? i.e. headlights etc. Any other strange electronic problems?
