    If you remove the seat -- Do not put the key in the ignition while doing this or you will get an airbag light. The airbag circuit is activated when the key is put into the ignition (even in the off state). You are looking for water damage to the central locking/alarm control box.

    The lists for a MY03 Boxster are here
  3. Loren
    Correct, the coupe, and cabriolet (and Targa) all get different RTS kits.

    The first question is - is that really where the oil is coming from? I suggest you clean it off and then look again after a drive and make sure that is the source.

    Usually a bad ignition switch gives many electrical anomalies.

    Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST

    Yes, BMC will improve engine sound some. No way any air filter gives 8 to 10 HP - sorry that is just marketing hype.
  10. Loren
    Had one - sent it back after numerous CELs. A good BMC air filter works just as well (IMHO).

    I've done it with a couple of screwdrivers - be careful to not scratch the paint.

    Would you know of a place that sells porsche parts online? So i can hunt for the best price if i can not find anyone to weld the casting back together? Thanks again man. Where are you located?
  13. Loren
    Rennlist is subscription. RennTech.org is supported by donations. Certainly you mean RennTech.org ;)
  14. Loren
    so then im screwed. Would a porsche dealer try to fix that by welding it or would they send it out? And if they have to repair it by getting a new one, how much would the part cost and the labor? Thanks again. That will depend on the dealer. Prices vary everywhere... get a written quote. I would suggest a really good independent shop.

    It is questionable whether the key was ever programmed to the car. Was there a tag with the key with a 24 digit code?
  16. Loren
    Your case is in two haves and it would require removing many major components (heads, cams. crankshaft, intermediate shaft, pistons, etc., etc.). If you could find the missing piece it would likely help the welder. Like it or not this is major damage.
  17. Loren
    The bad news is that you did not crack just the pan. The pan cover is just above the engine protection shield. You cracked the crankcase - unless you can find an alloy welder to rebuild the bottom of the crankcase - this will mean a new engine or rebuild. If you shut it off right away (since all the oil came out) you should be ok for a weld job. If not... it will be expensive.
  18. Loren
    RFM's instructions are correct.
  19. Loren
    The nozzles are: 996.628.333.00 Left nozzle -- US MSRP $165.31 996.628.334.00 Right nozzle -- US MSRP $165.31

    Try 8763 or 8761

    I just had a cat-back AWE Tuning system installed on my 987 Boxster S. The system adds almost 20 FWHP and sounds GREAT! If you stay off the throttle, it sounds almost stock, but get in the throttle and it sings. Had I not chosen the AWE system, I would have gone with REMUS. Exhaust sound is subjective, meaning, what sounds GREAT to me may not sound good to you. Try and hear the systems first hand before you buy... I am with White987S on this one. 20 RWHP increase with just exhaust - I don't think so... See my blog comments here for more of my thoughts on this.

    Remove a drain plug and clean with soap and water.
  23. Loren
    Try 0744 or 0742 Thank you! Do you have PayPal so I can send some appreciation your way? Thanks again. Sure, just click on Donate at the top left (or bottom) of any page.
  24. Loren
    Sorry, those are not valid part numbers - they may be sub-assembly part numbers. Porsche part numbers are usually xxx.xxx.xxx.xx.
  25. Loren
    You will need the Durametric software, a PST2 or PIWIS to reset the airbag code. Where are you located? - perhaps someone near you has one of these.
