    On US cars it is up near the left side tail light. You need a wire hook a flashlight and a little bit of fishing luck. Removing the wheel and wheel liner might make it easier to find... I haven't tried that but it might be easier to see it.

    997.111.352.02 was replaced by 997.111.352.03 and then 997.111.352.03 was replaced by 997.111.352.04. Likely different vendors.

    I already answered your other post on this - why are posting this here? Sorry, the only place you can get a PCM (or Traffic Pro) code is from a dealer/OPC.

    Sheet 8 - Control Unit Comfort Systems Rear and Alarm Central Locking System. As I read it power comes from the control unit so there are separate lines for that. What I do not know is what the controller will do when you put this product in series. It could give a light out warning, it could go bezerk, or it could smoke it. Good Luck!

    Filter, o-ring and drain plug sealing ring from Sunset. I don't know the their price on a metal oil filter wrench but you might find that locally (74 mm 14 flutes). 'particle filer' is the same as 'pollen filter' or 'cabin filter'. No faults are always good - unless you have a check engine light I would skip until the next major maintenance.

    Isn't' really a 45 K maintenance - just 30,000, 60,000, 90,000, 120,000 miles. DIY Menu -> Maintenance Schedules -> Carrera/GT3 (996) Maintenance Schedules -> Major Maintenance US (up to MY02)

    I recently replaced my air filter. On my next drive the check engine light came on. When I opened it up, I found that I had forgotten to reattach the MAF sensor wire. Would this cause the check engine light to come on? If so, would it go off on it's own after I connect the MAF wire? Thanks to all for this forum. Yes, and Yes. A disconnected MAF will give a fault P0102. It should go off after a few drive cycles. If it does not - then it would be best to see if there are other fault codes.

    The tubes are oil returns - so if you let the car sit a few minutes most of the oil should be back in the crankcase. Maybe a few drips but oil will not gush out.

    You have a leak somewhere - have you put a fault code reader on the car? Better yet the Durametric software so you can read the MAF voltage and airflow.

    :welcome: Please do a search - spark plug debates have been discussed here ad nauseam.

    Definitely - It is time to put a Durametric, PST2 or PIWIS tester on the car and see what is going on.

    Ok tried it again -- the S/N is definitely WS0 - 12008 Does the Radio have to talk to the DME through the body harness to qualify the code? The reason I ask is that this car had its engine replaced (due to an IMS failure) and is a 99 car with a 97 engine (and a 97 Engine Wiring Harness). I had to rewire the engine wire harness to connect the Tank Pressure Sensor to the DME since the 97 had a different pin out. Could I be dealing with a similar issue? thanks, Mike No the radio does not talk to the DME on pre-MOST cars (MY2003). Sorry, in a small percentage of cases my code finder does not work. You can try to get a dealer to get it for you free or pay Becker for the correct code.

    Have a look at the Front Bumper Removal DIY Tutorial and the DIY Video. Basically you need to loosen the center screws and side screws (under the sidemarkers - then have someone hold it in place while you tighten the screws down.
