  1. That would depend on how much you want to change (i.e. just the front). Either way unless you buy the parts from a salvage yard it will be expensive.
  2. Only if you have PSM. And, the manual says check and calibrate if needed. The alignment shop does not have to do it -- any shop or person with a PST2 or PIWIS could check it and calibrate it if needed.
  3. No, not on 996 series cars. 997 series cars with sport crono do this when you switch to sport mode. As I recall in Sport mode two wheels have to (start to) lock before ABS kicks in.
  4. Three times I have told you in responses to your posts and once in a Personal Message - how to do this... You need to readthe information at the link below and follow the instructions... then click on the link in the instructions and post a reply in that thread - I WILL NOT ANSWER RADIO CODE REQUESTS OUTSIDE OF THAT ONE THREAD. Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  5. I don't think there is a door ajar alarm - unless you mean the door is open like when the key is in the ignition. The chime will also sound if there the seat belt is not buckled - but it stops after a few seconds. Do you get any warning lights?
  6. Sounds like a loose front swaybar. Check the mounts. and links.
  7. Terminals 30, 31, and 15 are: 31 - Ground usually a solid brown wire 30 - Unswitched +12 volts (wire color will depend on model and year of your car) 15 - Switched +12 volts (wire color will depend on model and year of your car) Thanks for that but I am trying to work out which terminals on the control unit (996 618 537 03) need to be connected to the ground, switched and unswitched 12 volts. The terminals have numbers and are labelled but in German Cheers Matt Sorry, without model and year of the car I can't help you -- I need to know which schematic to look at... Ahh, ok, 2003 996 turbo. Thanks Matt
  8. There is a list here of people with testers that are willing to help. Including me - and i have both a PST2 and PIWIS.

  10. Thank you very much for the reply Mr.Admin. done it already coil has no cracks~ How is it to change the spark plugs? just curious about the access to them? pretty easy? thanks http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=12659
  11. I am saying you need to bypass the alarm box altogether and run the key (via relays) to run the starter and deliver power to the engine DME. If you don't feel comfortable doing this then find someone local that has built a kit car. This likely will be just one of that many workarounds you will need to do (IMHO).
  12. C2S gets a different master cylinder (997.355.910.10) - that is the only other part I see when looking at the parts list.

  14. So taking the car to them is a must. If I carry them the car, and the box turns out to be bad, do I have to have it reprogramed again(the key) for the new box? Basically yes. You must have a working alarm/door lock/drive block control to start the car - unless you decide to bypass that whole system. Is that an option and still keep the porsche engine/ engine ecu? Please excuse all my questions, this car has got to have the most PITA alarm/starting stuff EVER! Still wondering about this? I do not see anything on the DME 5.2.2 schematic that would keep it from running without the alarm box.
  15. I have not seen a car that can not have OBC turned on yet.
  16. On the drivers side up under the dash.
  17. Try 2290 or 2288 OK I tried these 2 codes & I tried 2292 & 2286 to no avail.... Any other codes I should try ? Also any way to get around the 1 hour wait period? Should I just call Becker? Or wont they help? Thanks again for the great resource! :renntech: You need to read this... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST I did, kind sir. So you are saying that I'm in the 5% ? Or should I continue to search #s in the 2 digit ranges? How far either side of your suggested # should I go? Yes, if the two numbers I gave you don't work then you can try 2 digit increments/decrements until you get tired and call a dealer - or get lucky.
  18. Where are you located?
  19. If it was a loud banging noise then chances are it is a broken intermediate shaft (sorry).
