  1. It depends on their age and amount of time in the sun. Sometime the clips will break - sometimes the plastic. IMHO it is better do do the removal when the dash area is a little warm from the sun.
  2. Has anybody wired in a radar detector to that circuit? I would open it up and look for a loose or shorted wires.
  3. Hmm... either shorted or miswired? Were the anti-dazzle mirrors installed at the factory or after?
  4. Yes, just one clamp. When installing the gap at the top (dimension A ) should be 26 ± 1 mm; the gap at the side should be (dimension B ) 32 ± 1 mm. Then tighten the clamp to 44 ft-lbs.
  5. Have a look at the "How to..." here. As a Contributing Member you are allowed up to 1MB per post. However most images are fine for viewing at 250K or less. If you need an online image resizer try the one here.
  6. The sensor is on the yellow (+) and green (-) wires so you could try it out of the circuit and see if the resistance changes. This could also likely be tested with a PST2 but I don't have a car with anti-dazzle handy.
  7. I want to have a look at the schematic. What year TT and US or RoW?
  8. Well there is definitely wiring for the mirrors under the drivers seat. Did this happen just after installing the seat? Here is the proper way to test the sensor: 1. Ignition on. 2. Cover photocell on the glass side of the interior mirror; the mirror surface must darken after about 4 seconds. Uncover the photocell. The mirror should brighten within approx. 6 seconds. 3. Repeat, except that before uncovering the photocell, ensure the mirror goes from a dimmed to an undimmed state when reverse gear is selected.
  9. We have added the DME Fault Texts for DME 7.8. DME 7.8 is used on: Boxster (986), S MY03-04 Carrera (996), 4, 4S MY02-MY04 Turbo (996) MY01-05 You can find this information in OBD II P-Codes
  10. Porsche parts list and/or Porsche price list.
  11. Does the drivers side (exterior) anti-dazzle mirror sensor work? They both trigger off the same sensor in the interior mirror.
  12. 996 504 603 00 Chassis Air Duct -- Retail $11.51 (as of Oct 2005)
  13. :welcome: The site has a wonderful search function. Here is what I got on the first try: http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...indpost&p=21380
  14. 996 123 983 71 Left turbocharger -- Retail $3022.65 (as of Oct 2005) 996 123 984 71 Right turbocharger -- Retail $3022.65 (as of Oct 2005)
  15. Whole engine? or the left and right exhaust turbos?
  16. 996 631 495 00 Rear Light Housing - Left -- Retail $430.40 You can likely get a much better price at Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer cost).
  17. Please do not repeat posts ever 10 minutes. The anti-dazzle mirror (interior and exterior) are on the same same fuse (B5) as the backup lights, rain sensor, and door mirror adjustment.
  18. There is a TSB (7-22-2005) that talks a lot about various complaints with PCM 2.1 - but not that one. The TSB is 13 pages long and is available to all Contributing Members. Unless it is newer than that - and I have not received any TSB updates since July.
  19. The DIY Section at the top has the front bumper covered in the "3rd Radiator Install" section. The rear bumper is covered here in a couple of threads - do a search to find it.
  20. I sent Rich another email...
  21. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...=findpost&p=527 http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...=findpost&p=528
  22. Knocking, rattling, sqealing... etc.
  23. Do you mean the dealer/shop code in a PST2?
