    I would certainly check Sunset's prices first - they are usually the best you can find.

    Any shop with a PIWIS tester can program a key (with 40 digit code) and your IPAS codes. So you could buy the key (with codes) and only pay for the programming.
  3. Loren
    You will need (all) working keys (with 40 digit ID tags), a working immobilizer, and your car's IPAS security codes. Then any shop with a PST2 or PIWIS tester can program the keys and immobilizer. If the old immobilizer is so damaged that the old codes can not be read from it then any keys must have the 40 digit key code to program them. Keep your IPAS codes secure as they allow this programming.

    The upper strut mount?
  5. Loren
    You already posted a thread on this problem here. Why are you posting it again? I am moving replies to the first post and closing this thread.
  6. Loren
    I think everything can be installed from the front. Removing the wheel well liner is not hard either (less than 5 minutes).
  7. Loren
    Try 5504 or 5502 If you have not already read this FAQ - please do so... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST

    :welcome: Plese give our Search a try... Replacing the Sim card tray in a PCM2

    995.343.041.04 Bilstein strut -- US MSRP $376.87 each (replace in pairs).
  10. Loren
    If you brake light is on then one of your sensor wires is 'open' - not connected. You can jumper them and the light should go out.
  11. Loren
    Um... he is asking about MY02 and MY03 996 Turbo - both are 420 HP.
  12. Loren
    None of the spoiler mechanical changed during the 996TT production run. You can check the microswitches with a PST2 or PIWIS tester to see if they are functioning properly. If it works with the switch then it should work automatically. Check the connectors and the wring since there was accident damage. Also, check relay 9 (spoiler retraction) (behind the rear seat panel with the DME).
  13. Loren
    You should be able to use PIWIS (possibly PST2?) to diagnose poor radio reception...members can read the TSBs. Sorry have not been around here long enough to know what those acronyms stand for- TSB I get- not the rest... In the top right corner of the site is a link that says Glossary. We tried to cover most of them there (and it has a search too). :D
  14. Loren
    If it is the mount the plug goes in then you either need locking clip or a whole new mounting - which ever is broken or missing (item 9 and/or 12).
  15. Loren
    :welcome: You don't need a wiring diagram - Porsche produced a TSB with the complete installation procedure. TSBs are available here to view by our Contributing Members.
  16. Loren
    Try 1785 or 1783 If you have not already read this FAQ - please do so... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  17. Loren
    You will need to know your PCM (NAV) version for example PCM 2 manual has a US MSRP $22.92
  18. Loren
    Sorry, not on a996 series car - it is as I described.
  19. Loren
    Try 0982 or 0980 If you have not already read this FAQ - please do so... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  20. Loren
    MY97 to MY00 are the same. MY01 is slightly different but still the newer style. MY02 to MY05 are the same. The newer style can not be used in place of the older style (and visa versa).
  21. Loren
    Yes, DME = ECU. There are many ECU's on the newer cars but only one DME (motor control).
  22. Loren
    It is a very simple circuit. Either a bad connection or a bad airbag controller. If you are not familiar with the dangers of handling airbags then have a professional do the repair.
  23. Loren
    In the front trunk above and behind the spare tire. Option codes would be M490 or M680.
  24. Loren
    Please do a search - its already posted here.
