    Bosch are good, so are Trico.

    Here is a brief overview...

    There was a new TSB on this in April 2005 (TSB 4/05 6128 Convertible Rear Window Bonding Loose). Seems like a problem they are aware of. It explains repair/replacement options.

    Please get their permission before posting it here - Thanks!

    Check with your dealer - there was a new TSB for Hard Shifting In Range First to Second in February this year. They change out the Tiptronic control unit to fix it. In some cases the DME software must be updated too.
  6. Loren
    Why not? I usually only replace the blades if they are worn out or damaged.

    I know folks that have removed them by drilling out the pop-rivets. So, I guess you could do the same and then pop-rivet it back in.

    P0410 Secondary Air Injection System, Bank 1 – Below Limit Now we know neither side of the engine (O2 sensors) are seeing the auxillary air pump output. The sound of the pump sounds like a small vacuum cleaner to me. Usually it runs for a couple of minutes at start up. The pump is located in the left rear most area of the engine compartment. Item 1 below (air injection system).

    Cost reduction? vendor change? who knows?

    Just as clarification - the Porsche monthly published price list is MSRP (Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price). Dealers are free to charge as much or as little as the want. Sunset Imports gives great prices and outstanding service to RennTech.org members - which is why they are here!

    Hmm... my OBD II 7.8 DME manual says: I don't show a P0411 for TT. P1411 Secondary Air Injection System, Bank 2 - Below Limit Check: Check function of secondary air injection pump Check relay Check power supply for open circuit Check ground line of secondary air pump etc., etc. 12 tests in all. You should be able to hear the secondary air injection pump at cold start up. If not, check the fuse - the air pump fuse is on the relay support panel behind the rear seats. It should be 40A. Then check the connections in the engine compartment.

    The TSB says they don't stock/sell the old ones anymore... so unless you found a dealer with old stock I think you are out of luck. I guess you could go 3rd party.
  15. Loren
    The numbers are correct. 996 628 901 08 Both divers side and passenger wiper (US) 996 628 045 00 (replaces 996 628 901 07) Rear window wiper The design was changed in TSB 1/03 9227 Wiper Blade Noise - Squeaking and Rubbing - dated 3-7-03.

    :thumbup:

    It's not that simple - it is a 5 page TSB. You have to modify the wiring that is on the car wiring harness. Some dealers will do this fix as warranty or goodwill.
  18. Loren
    Assuming you did not take the steering wheel off or remove the seats with the battery connected. Then this is pretty commonly the problem: TSB 1/04 6924 Airbag Warning Light Comes On: Fault Codes 46 and 49 - dated 7-21-04 gives full instructions on how to replace the drivers side and/or passenger side seat buckles with new ones. About 2-3 hours to do both. (Also common problem in pre MY04 Carrera, and Boxster as well as TT/GT2/GT3.)
  19. Loren
    I would bleed the clutch slave and see if you get any air bubbles (see the DIY in the 996 DIY section as it is the same for Boxster).
  20. Loren
    Why were the calipers taken off? What else was done? Did you bleed the clutch? - which is on the same circuit.
  21. Loren
    Compare the headlight openings on your current bumper and the new one - if they are not the same then it is the MY02 and newer bumper.
  22. Loren
    Have your dealer read TSB 3/05 4078 Rattling Noises From The Area Of The Front And Rear Axle - dated 7-6-05. It specifically covers these noises and their cure.
  23. Loren
    Sorry, not off the top of my head. Maybe someone will know someone and suggest here...
  24. Loren
    Don't have the key in the ignition and don't connect the battery with the seats or steering wheel out. Where are you located?
  25. Loren
    The only way to reset the air bag light is with a PST2 or PIWIS tester. All dealers have these, some independent shops and a few individuals.
