  1. Thank you for your support of RennTech.org! :thankyou:
  2. I'm changing my black horseshoe radio surround to a porsche aluminum one. Having a problem removing the several switches (Cigarette lighter, door lock, wiper, etc) Questions: 1-The Cigarette lighter is giving me a hard time removing. Thanks for your help.... I've been searching that's how I found this thread. You may PM me if you like. Lighter removal DIY
  3. I would get a second opinion. A crankshaft bearing failure would be pretty unusual in this car. An intermediate shaft bearing is more common but those are usually catastrophic. If it were my car I would still get a second opinion.
  4. Try 0302 or 0300 If you have not already read this FAQ - please do so... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  5. I would get a second opinion.
  6. :welcome: Mobil 10W-40 has never been on the Porsche "approved" list to my knowledge. No 10W-40 of any brand has been on the lists in the last 10 years. When the water cooled sports cars first came out Porsche approved oil was Mobil 1 15W-40, and that changed to 0W-40 or 5W-40 or 5W-50 over the years.
  7. :welcome: Search is your friend... Replacing Reverse Lights/Back-Up Lights Switch
  8. There is a single cooling tube in the V6 Cayenne. Sorry, I do not know what it is made of - perhaps RFM knows.
  9. Ask your dealer to check the repair and TSB history of the car.
  10. Try 5388 or 5386 If you have not already read this FAQ - please do so... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  11. Please do a search here this has been covered many many times before - it is normal.
  12. Stop - sorry, but the coil pack advice is wrong. I would not replace the coils packs without fault codes pointing to them or physically checking the resistance of each one. From your description you have a fuel flow problem. Test the fuel pump delivery.
  13. Try 6903 or 6901 If you have not already read this FAQ - please do so... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  14. Try 2950 or 2948 If you have not already read this FAQ - please do so... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST thanks, but no luck with those Did you read the FAQ?
  15. Usually is an IMS failure is big event and the engine may drop all of its oil but it will not run with an IMS failure. A flashing CEL means there is a severe emissions problem that can damage the catalytic converters. If the CEL is still flashing do not drive the car. Find a shop with the Durametric software, a Porsche PST2, or Porsche PIWIS tester and find out what the fault codes are.
  16. Not that I have seen at this time - most all squeaks and dash noises are cured with either felt tape or Teflon tape (per Porsche).
  17. Try 9026 or 9024 If you have not already read this FAQ - please do so... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  18. The "official" designation is 9PA and 9PA1.
  19. Try 2950 or 2948 If you have not already read this FAQ - please do so... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  20. The radio should be on in the accessory position.
  21. Loren, I need to do the same thing, can you direct me to a direct link to the diagram? Thanks Look in section 817-30.
  22. Try 3472 or 3470 If you have not already read this FAQ - please do so... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  23. Either talk to the service manager or find another dealer.
