    If it is brown with a blue stripe then it for the external temperature sensor.
  2. Loren
    If the battery is nearly 5 years it old then it's time has come and gone. I would replace it before it strands you somewhere. Chances are the warning light is an intermittent microswitch in the front latch.

    It is a pretty simple circuit but it is controlled through the OBC. Best to look at it with a PIWIS tester and see if it lost any coding.
  4. Loren
    RFM is right - you likely need a PST2 or PIWIS tester to see which microswitch is not working.
  5. Loren
    Both high and low beams? What happens if you wiggle the switch back and forth?

    :welcome: P1126 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Lower Load Range, Bank 1 – Above Limit P1133 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Lower Load Range, Bank 2 – Above Limit Potential causes: – Incorrect signal from MAF sensor – Intake air system leaking – Fuel pressure too low – Volume supply of fuel pump too low – Fuel injectors fouled P1130 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 2 – Above Limit Potential causes: – Incorrect signal from MAF sensor – Intake air system leaking – Fuel pressure too low – Volume supply of fuel pump too low – Fuel injectors fouled – Exhaust system leaking The problem is not your O2 sensors. The first place to start is the MAF. Your mechanic should know he needs to look at the MAF readings at idle and 2500 RPM. If there are not within spec then the MAF needs to be cleaned or replaced.

    No screws - just really tight clips. It hinges towards the rear of the car so use a trim tool to carefully lift a corner and then work your way to the center back (from each side).

    :welcome: What is your VIN? I will run it for you. M032 is standard suspension. M273 is electrically adjustable heated door mirrors. A209 was the gas cap recall. They were supposed to put a sticker on the car when they did the recall (stating it was done).

    Thanks, Loren! Would steel grey not be the same as aluminum finish on the parts list? No, they show as different parts. If you can give me the part number off your old speedometer I can likely tell you which it is. Thanks again Loren. I will have the car taken apart next week. When the original dials are out, I will send you the part numbers. Loren, How about this part number 964 641 984 60. Could this be aluminum face with kms with single scale? Thnaks! Yes, it could aluminum face (Canada) only. Interesting it does not show on my parts list - but does show on my price list. Are you saying there is a code with this part number which refers this a Canada only gauge? Could you please give me the price? Thanks. US MSRP $649.07 Try Sunset Imports for better pricing.

    I assume your car is under warranty. Why not let the dealer take care of it?

    thanks for the response guys! JeTexas, im thinking those mods are adding more air in the car and its overly compensating with oil and fuel? i'am also getting less mpg than originally when i had the cars w/o modifications. im not complaining about mpg though, more oil consumption than anything else. any feel for your 996 oil consumption over a 1000 mile period anyone? Zero, nada, zippo oil usage, ever. But, then again, I only use Mobil 0W40 for keeping the door hinges from squeaking. Move to the Mobil 15W50 I suggested above as it has better cleaning agents than any of the other Mobil synthetics. I have yet to see an engine that burns oil using Mobil 0W40 that did not substantially reduce or eliminate oil burning. Please don't start this oil debate again - you have voiced your opinion many times on this. Thank you. If it continues I will close this thread.

    :welcome: It would be a lot more helpful if you would tell us the model and year of your car. And, whether it is a US/Canada car or RoW.
