Congratulations and :welcome:

Exact model and year of your car please?

Back on the original posters topic please...

From the 1999 Porsche Carrera Service Information Book: "3250· Torque Converter Functioning of the converter The converter comprises the impeller, turbine, stator, and the oil required for torque transmission. The impeller driven by the engine causes the oil in the converter to be pumped in a circular flow. This oil flow reaches the turbine and its flow direction is changed. The oil leaves the turbine at the hub and flows to the stator where its direction is once again changed. The oil is thus supplied to the impeller in the appropriate flow direction. The change in direction creates a lock-up of at the stator. The reaction of the fluid increases the turbine speed. The ratio of turbine speed to impeller speed is known as the torque increase. The greater the difference in speed between the impeller and turbine, the greater the torque increase which is at its maximum when the turbine is stationary. The torque increase drops as the turbine speed increases. If the turbine speed reaches approx. 85% of the impeller speed, the torque increase is I, i.e. the turbine speed is equal to the impeller speed. The stator which is supported by the overrun clutch and the stator shaft to the transmission housing now runs free parallel to the flow and the overrun clutch overruns. From this point onwards, the converter functions as a pure flow clutch. During conversion, the stator is stationary and is supported by the overrun clutch to the housing. Regulated converter lockup clutch The converter lockup clutch (CLC) is a device which eliminates slippage of the converter and thus contributes to the optimization of fuel consumption and to a sporty style of driving. In the new 911 Carrera, control of the CLC actuation has been replaced by a regulation function. Intervention and opening of the CLC is regulated. During the regulation phase, a differential speed of approx. 50 rpm between pump and turbine is set. This prevents the torsional vibrations from the engine from being transmitted to the transmission which, in turn, optimizes shifting smoothness. Pressure regulation at the CLC pistons is determined by an electronic pressure control valve (EPCV 4). When open (conversion range), the oil pressure is adjusted after the CLC pistons as well as in the turbine range. The direction of flow is determined by the turbine shaft through the area behind the pistons to the turbine chamber. To close the CLC, the direction of flow is changed (reversed) by a valve in the hydraulic control unit (EPCV 4). At the same time, the space behind the CLC piston is bled. The oil pressure moves from the turbine chamber to the CLC piston and forces it against the cover (outer shell) of the converter. As a result, the turbine is locked by the lining disk between the piston and cover and allows rigid through-drive to the planetary transmission without slippage or slippage (in the case of regulated operation)."

If you do not have any fault codes - then the values are within normal ranges. When you have a fault the diagnostic will lead you to a troubleshooting tree that will ask what a value or reading is to determine if that is the problem or not. There are hundreds of faults and perhaps thousands of troubleshooting procedures each with their own tests and values. So there is no big list of "normal" readings per se.

NOT REALLY SURE WHAT IS? THERE IS NOTHING HERE, WHAT IS THE "THIS" YOU ARE REFERRING TO??? The procedure is 5 page of type written procedures. I am trying to say this is not a simple task on a Cayenne without the proper tools and documentation/training.

Sorry, I've seen MAF's that looked perfectly clean and still did not work. It will either work or not. If not, then you will need to buy a new MAF.

:welcome: Yes, no. You need the TSB for installation of PCM 2.x - it lists all the parts and procedures. Contributing Members here have access to read all the Porsche TSBs.

Sorry, to confuse you. The red brakes on 996 Carrera's would only be on C4S - which are Turbo brakes. So in this case they are different. I added and corrected my original post - thanks for pointing that out.

Looks great - congratulations! I sent you a PM...

I have updated the tutorial to include the handle check.

Since your car is still under warranty - report this to your dealer and have them investigate it.

It adjusts just like old drum brakes did (the parking brake IS a drum brake on the inside of the rear rotor hub). There are brake tools for this but I just use a large blade screwdriver - works fine.

Yellow brake calipers = Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) -- very expensive option (you could buy a Hyundai for the price ;) ), but the latest race technology. Silver brake calipers = were used on the C4 (nothing special the same brakes as the red or black brakes (on Carreras)). Red brakes calipers = were used on the S models (nothing special the same brakes as theTurbos - which are larger and have more pistons). Some folks have put the red brakes from the Boxster S on a Carrera - in this case they are the same as the silver and black brakes - only the color is different. On the GT3 you got red brakes which were a larger and had more pistons than the Carrera brakes. PCCB was an option on GT3.

997.110.639.70 Left Intercooler -- US MSRP $733.98 997.110.640.70 Right Intercooler -- US MSRP $733.98

Only with the PCCB option M450.

Model and year of your car please - so we can look up the specs on your car's idle adaption spec.

The 01 cluster is pretty rare as it was only used on the MY01 cars. Good luck on your conversion. You can buy the two schematics you might need from Porsche at http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?/links/goto/18-porsche-piwis-tsi/

You are joking right? This is a Porsche forum.

Sorry, but how do expect to get the CAN (network) data to the new cluster when your car does not have the CAN controllers?

It won't hurt it to spray everything but you want to clean the thin metal film inside.
