    Yes. Those are the later version with the larger bypass pipes.

    If the headlights work and the LED on the control work then it pretty much would have to be the dash switch/potentiometer. So, so neither headlight moves but they both come on?

    Power to the DME?

    Loren replied to GreigM's topic in 996 GT3

    Try the Red/Green wire on relay 1 MFI-DI pin 3. That should be at 12 volts whenever the car is running.

    Automatic or RoW manual vertical headlight aim control?

    Power to the DME?

    Loren replied to GreigM's topic in 996 GT3

    If your car has this a secondary air pump... look at the maxi fuse on the relay support next to the DME. It is for the secondary air pump - I don't know if it is hot all the time but it should be easy to tap off of if it is. Or... look at the relay for the engine compartment blower fan (position 8 in the relay support). Pin 3 a Red/Black wire should have 12 volts all the time.

    Do you mean the purge valve? This thread shows it on a Carrera and the Boxster uses the same valve. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=5961

    Ok, "inner" door sill... doh!

    Look through some of the older posts here. Basically a heat gun, dental floss and some carful prying...

    Power to the DME?

    Loren replied to GreigM's topic in 996 GT3

    Do you want power at the DME or at the front center console? Front center console is easy - use the phone connector.
  11. Loren
    I must be completely retarded because in my 2001 C4 I can't find this **** thing anywhere? I've removed all the center covers and don't see. It's decent sized so how am I missing it? Is it in front of the transmission? above it? I think on some of the newer C4's the fuel fiter is strapped on the back of the coolant tank in the engine compartment. Let us know where you find it.

    Perhaps someone with a hard top can take a picture and post it (my car is a coupe).

    Hardtop trim - item 3 (996.563.551.000.1C)

    Well, if they did not code the fixed rear spoiler with a PIWIS tester then that explains the spoiler light. You might as well have the dealer read out the fault codes for the PSM and PASM lights when they recode the spoiler. There is a 12 page TSB for installing the aerokit - did the body shop have that?
  15. Loren
    :jump: Alright guys, sorry for the late post, but I have finished and let me say...... LCD Turbo Instrument gauge Cluster rocks! hahahah I installed it myself, and it worked. and to answer the ongoing question YES you can swap a Turbo gauge cluster with an S cluster. Everything is pretty much the same, except that your milage indicator and clock is all consolidated on the LCD screen, and believe me, it's a site for sore eyes! , and oh if your cayenne does not have some items such as TPM , then you'll get a forever lights on alarm, but otherwise, everything works, i tested it and its' great. And the obvious thing is the boost gauge will never work since if you are installing this on a regular or an S , then obviously , you don't have turbos to utilize it! I am going to have a write up with pictures on the DIY area, so hope this answers everyone's questions! I'm gonna have my victory lunch right now, and savor looking at the LCD screen hahah! Pictures please?
  16. Loren
    Was your aerokit factory installed or dealer installed? If it was dealer installed then they may not have plugged everything in or even used the new wiring harness. Plus they also have to use the PIWIS tester to code the spoiler setting.
  17. Loren
    I answered your question yesterday here. Please DO NOT double post - please re-read the Board Guidelines/Rules. I have Closed this duplicate topic.

    The Retail Price Search feature (for our Contributing Members) has been updated to reflect February 2006 pricing and 202,229 parts.

    I thought you just select source (the notes button) to radio then use the arrow buttons to go forward and backward - but I haven't tried it.

    If it was taken care at a dealership there will be records in Porsche's database - and a good dealer will look it up for you by the VIN. Again, if it was dealer maintained, Porsche calls for a yearly oil change for cars driven less than 9,000 miles per year.

    There are two sets of holes in the bottom of the door. One set near the handle and one set near the hinges. My understanding is that these are used to adjust he window angle to the seal. They are suggesting that you adjust the window until the seal is just tight enough that you can't pull the piece of paper out (but not loose enough that you can) - then tighten the nuts back down. Be careful not to over-tighten the nuts 7.4 ftlbs is not much.

    We need to get some members that really know their electronics (like Sandy) to have a look at the schematics - because I don't see a way. All the key connections are on the fiber optic bus now - so ether the 3rd party Nav providers need to catch up or one of local electronic genius's needs to help us out here.
  25. Loren
    Bad news - your car does not have the optical bus (MOST system) or the MOST gateway system controller - nor will your DME (DME 5.2.2) send the proper signals (PCM2 gets some of it's data from the DME (7.8) and newer design instrument cluster). Those parts will only work in MY03 or newer car.
