    Remove the secondary air pump: 1. Pull off right connecting hose between charge air cooler and pressure pipe: · Unclip the locking clips using a screwdriver and pull off the hose. · Then re−clip the locking clips onto the pressure pipe. · Ensure correct seating. 2. Remove switch−over valve on the secondary air pump: · In order to do this, press the locking tabs of the holding clip with a screwdriver in the direction of the secondary air pump · and at the same time push the switch−over valve to the right and remove. · Undo upper fastening screw M6 x 10. 3. Undo lower fastening screw M6 x 10. 4. Disconnect the electrical plug connection. Undo air hose and pull off. 5. Lift the secondary air pump out of the engine compartment.

    There isn't really a DIY for that. But to get to the injectors on that side they recommend removing the air pump. I think you just need enough room to get your hand(s) in there.
  3. Loren
    Yes.
  4. Loren
    Okay, I won't tell you that is how you get to the tank, motor, etc. ;) It's not really that hard - maybe 15 minutes.
  5. Loren
    Cracked tanks, loose hoses/clamps, and bad motors - we've seen them all. You really don't know till you get in there and have a look.

    With out the last two numbers of the part number it is impossible to tell. It should be something like: 996.352.425.xx
  8. Loren
    Sorry, but I think that the fix is likely temporary. The connectors corroded and that is why Porsche replaced them with gold contact connectors.

    A bad MAF would not usually cause misfires on only two cylinders. You may have another problem with the P1125 but I would fix the misfires first - clear the codes and see if it comes back. The correct Porsche part number for your MY car's spark plugs is: 996.170.207.91 They should be: 14FGR 6KQU

    996.613.155.10.A05 black mat finish spoiler switch -- MSRP $33.84.

    Loosen the drive shaft nut before you raise the car. Then disconnect it at the wheel carrier.

    P0304 Misfire, Cylinder 4, Damaging to Catalytic Converter P0306 Misfire, Cylinder 6, Damaging to Catalytic Converter P1125 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation Area 1 (Cylinders 4 - 6) - Lean Threshold If the CEL is flashing it should not be driven. I would start by looking for cracked coil packs on cylinders 4 and 6.

    Worn wire rubbing on the metal frame? Shorted motor?
  14. Loren
    D7Z is correct (verified it with the latest parts list). The early copy of the service manual I have must be wrong - I have updated the Cayenne colors page too. Cayenne colors

    I suggest you read this first... http://www.tintcenter.com/laws/CA/

    The clutch pedal bad news is - no. The brake pedal however can be adjusted by adjusting the pushrod.
  17. Loren
    They exist -- sorry, we just don't have them.
  18. 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).
  20. 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.
