  1. My guess would be that the offset is not what you think it is.
  2. :welcome: 1. You can buy an owners manual for a MY 99 at Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) for under $20. The part number is WKD 996 110 99 2. Sometime the contacts get dirty from lack of use - try rotating back and forth a few times. If that doesn't help then check the relay under the dash. 3. I think that is normal - but someone without an Aerokit will have to answer. 4. P0420 Catalytic Converter Conversion Too Low (Cylinders 1 - 3) You may have a bad cat on that side. P1124 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation Area 1 (Cylinders 1 - 3) - Rich Threshold P1126 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation Area 1 (Cylinders 4 . 6) - Rich Threshold This means that the DME can not make your mixture rich enough and it thinks it is too lean. Start by cleaning the MAF and looking for intake air leaks. 5. Fogs are all Halogen. Main headlight are either halogen (standard) or Xenon (optional Litronics). 6. Yes, at least 4 pounds more in the rear than in the front. 7. Does it come on at all when you apply the parking brake. 8. I think you are asking about the oil level measurement at start up. It should be between the min and max bars.
  3. Might help if you tell us the wheel size and offset - and tire size and brand.
  4. This is likely a common problem. They need to enter the model order type in the DME vehicle data in order to change any programming. (They really should have known this).
  5. Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  6. Scouser has updated his outstanding VIN Decoder. The VIN Decoder is here. Changes: 3.01 27/Mar/08 Added link back to renntech.org Fixed 986 bug 2.5ltr = 2.7ltr for my00 onwards with code 0/2/3 Added bhp to 986 postText and also engine type "Mid-engine flat 6" Added ISO references Added link to USA Fed documents for the VIN spec. 3.02 11/Jul/08 Fixed a bug in Row/US spec for 996 Turbo decoding. 997 GT2 new 997 GT3 GT3RS new Many thanks to Scouser for his continued efforts, work, and updates to this fine tool! :clapping:
  7. I don't believe so - not in MY2004. In MY2004 X51 and PSE were separate options.
  8. Any 3.6 liter muffler will work fine on a 3.4 liter car. (The reverse is not true). I don't think the 40 year model got the sport exhaust - at least it does not show on the order guide.
  9. Sorry, the only place you can get a PCM code is from a dealer/OPC. Hi Loren Unfortunately I have tried the dealer and they said that they couldn't get it. Try another dealer or fax your proof of ownership (and other info) to Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost).
  10. Sorry, the only place you can get a PCM code is from a dealer/OPC.
  11. Display of the operating state of the alarm system. Six display types are possible: • Off • On • Normal flashing (0.5 Hz) • Double flashing (0.5 Hz) • Rapid flashing (2.0 Hz) • Rapid flashing (10.0 Hz) Yes, they all mean something and they are part of arming and sequence checks - but it requires a lot of detail to tell you. Buy a service manual if you really want to know... :lol:
  12. Did they use a PST2 or PIWIS to bleed the ABS and PSM? That is required when changing out either component.
  13. Try 4189 or 4187
  14. Try 0497 or 0495 Thanks Loren for the quick repsonse. I entered the code(s) and got nothing, just a blinking first digit. I am assuming niether works. Per the FAQ, I will try to alter the digits. Any advice on how many tries I can do this before locking it up? Thanks again! Jack Unlimited provided you don't get the "WAIT" message. Once you get WAIT you have to drive the car some for it to allow more try's.
  15. Same exact symptoms and results... that is why I sent my EVO intake back several years ago - and why I don't recommend them.
  16. Try 0497 or 0495
  17. CDR-220s have a low power line out, so they're barely going to drive a speaker if they're not amped. All CDR-220 systems had an amp in the trunk. This guy intalled it in a MB500E so who knows. I'm sure he fried somthing. Here are the correct pin outs for no amp.
  18. CDR-220s have a low power line out, so they're barely going to drive a speaker if they're not amped. All CDR-220 systems had an amp in the trunk. Not true, my CDR-220 has no amp. They are likely using the wrong pin outs.
  19. To quote Tool Pants "I have done a 100 OBC retrofits over the years on 1997-2003."
  20. We have added a new Reviews section. It should be much easier to use - since it works just like the forum posting section. It allows any member to write an initial review and/or comment on any existing reviews. You can mark Favorite reviews, quickly see a list of your reviews search the reviews or see the Top 5 Reviews by Hits, Top 5 Reviews by Rating, or Last 5 Reviews Submitted. Any member is welcome to add new reviews or comment on existing ones starting today. New Reviews Section Detail in my Blog
  21. No, I would look at finding the source of the leak. Could be a loose clamp or bad hose or ? Certainly worth the 30 minutes to pull the bumper cover and have a close look at the front end.
  22. Todd is the guy to ask for sure - because he has done it. You might send him a short PM and ask his thoughts.
  23. That might be a little more restrictive (power wise). tholyoak likely knows for sure - I think he has tried both.
  24. Your radio was likely replaced and the new card was lost. Try 4962 or 4960 There is no code for CDC-3. For CDC u cant help me?
  25. There are no overflows or other outlets at the front of the car - only the radiators and hoses. Are you sure it is coolant and not windshield cleaning fluid or condensation from the AC? Coolant smells sweet.
