  1. That would be San Diego area - California. So you hwould have to call 1+7147306917 :oops: Orange County just South of Los Angeles
  2. For the C4S... Brake disc thickness, new front 34mm rear 28 mm Minimum brake disc thickness (after machining) front 32.6 mm rear 26.6 mm Brake disc wear limit front 32.0 mm rear 26.0 mm Peak-to-valley surface roughness of the brake disc after machining, max. - 0.006 mm Thickness tolerance of the brake discs, max. - 0.02 mm Lateral runout of the brake disc, max. - 0.03 mm Lateral runout of the wheel hub, max. - 0.03 mm Lateral runout of the brake disc when installed, max. - 0.06 mm

    Rotor skimming

    For a GT3 mk1: Brake disc thickness, new front 34 mm rear 28mm Minimum brake disc thickness (after machining) front 32.6 mm rear 26.6 mm Brake disc wear limit front 32.0 mm rear 26.0 mm I think you are going to need new rotors...
  5. I think so. Many times Porsche will change the part number when they add a new vendor. That way if they have problems they know who to turn to.
  6. The first small tube sport exhaust for the 996 that I am aware of was 000.044.200.08 (that is what is one my car). As far as I know the later larger tube sport exhausts were made by different companies to the same specs.
  7. Slightly different... you need to release the clip in the center vent first. See the posts here.
  8. Rears are Turbo Look 18" wheels. Fronts: 993.362.134.05 Techno Wheel 18" 993.362.134.06 Turbo Look 18" Those two fronts should look slightly different if you look closely. The fronts should be in pairs with the same part number.
  9. Yeah, I think sometimes the solenoid gets weak or the buildup is just too much. I'm about 50-50 cleaning and replacing these - sometimes cleaning works and sometimes you just need to replace it. 996.606.160.01 Idle Speed Adjuster -- retail $366.28 (as of February 2006) I'm sure the folks at Sunset Imports (Porsche parts at Dealer Cost) can get you a better price.
  10. Start by lightly pressing on the window near the sound. If the noise changes or goes away it is the window/window seal.
  11. The only thing Porsche has currently released is the press release (see our News section). (I removed the cross post.)
  12. One more addition to what Dharn55 said... do not even put the key in ignition (that activated the airbag circuit).
  13. I've been happy with the BMC (see my comments in the Reviews sections here). Porsche uses BMC in all their race cars.
  14. Where can I order these parts? Any help would be appreciated. Just click on the link at the top - Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost
  15. Offset is explained very well here
  16. We have done a some forum reorganization based on inputs from both the moderators and a few members. Last week we split the 996 series from the 997 series as well as the 986 series from the 987 series. We have now merged the DIY for each model (and series in some cases) into the same forum category. This should reduce the total number of forums and hopefully make it easier to find DIY articles for your specific model.
  17. Is the cold start valve leaking fuel (not closing when the engine gets warm)?
  18. Correct - for narrow body 996 series cars.
  19. It is the button you push down on to move the shifter.
  20. I hate saying "me too" ... but honestly, me too ! I'm in the same boat with P1128 and P1130. $111 at the dealer to tell me those two codes.... aagh :( !!! Sid Sid, both codes means you have the same problem on both sides of the engine - highly unlikely to be injectors. Those codes say you have an air leak - look for loose or disconnected hoses, bad or dirty MAF (reading the air flow wrong), loose throttle body, cracked oil filler hose or even a bad oil separator.
  21. I just turned on Full Text Search here (at a number of folks request) so it works just like Google. You need to search for "+Remove +tiptronic +shift +knob" and it will come up. If you need help with search just click on the "Advanced Usage Help" link on the search page.
  22. Try using Search here - this has been covered many times... Remove tiptronic shift knob?
