  1. Could have been just a vendor change - but there was no TSB or no update to the previous TSB which says to use .03.
  2. Try 9095 or 9093
  3. There is a TSB that describes all of the "approved" tires, wheels and spacers.
  4. You will need to dig up a CD-2 manual and find out how many digits in the code. Based on that I may be able to help.
  5. The Wurth Silver wheel paint is dead on from what I have seen and heard. Cover it with the Wurth Gloss Clear coat for a same look. Home Curb-Rash Repair
  6. 948.602.104.05 has (quietly) replaced 948.602.104.03. But both are still okay to use.
  7. You need to make sure you don't have any other fault codes. If you got an aging sensor fault code also then it could be a bad sensor not the cat. If there really are no codes then you may have a bad cat.
  8. Try 8642 or 8640
  9. I have never seen bad gas cause anything but multiple misfires - never just one cylinder. If it were my car I would change the coil pack and spark plug on cylinder 3 and see if the problem goes away. (Check the wiring on the coil pack connector too.)
  10. I was not aware you could turn RBDS on or off - I thought it was always on and stations that did not use it just show normal station info.
  11. It said somewhere in this forum that its stock height when PSS9 in maximum level..? Im going for this setup because in case there is rubbing I could just adjust it higher, and isn't the stiffness adjustable too on these suspension? thanks I don't think so - good luck!
  12. I have only used my Durametric software on a couple of 993's but it worked flawlessly for me. Did you take advantage of updating the software - for free from Durametric? Any fault codes?
  13. Try 1034 or 1032
  14. ok, followed the steps and this is wat i came up with: type: 4462 cdr-220 srl#: w5006540 thanks u so much Try 5188 or 5186
  15. hi loren - I had looked at this post before.. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...9entry719 i thought that clip was to remove the vent and not the trim piece. I see it now and how it works. Do you have a partnumber for those 2 clips in section 3 of the removal image? Thanks The two clips on top of the vent are riveted on the vent (as I recall) and not available separately. If you broken them you will need a new (or used) vent - sorry.
  16. Porsche changed their coolant a couple years ago - all Porsche coolant is compatible (new and old). Why do you think you need a flush? Unless the coolant gets contaminated I see no need to do a flush.
  17. Search is your friend - this has been covered here many times. As of MY02 the top horseshoe has a clip that is inside the center vent that must be released with a screwdriver. Please do a search for more info and pics.
  18. If the "pill" transponder is not damaged you could easily convert to the Design key and get new "inerds". With the Design Key conversion you just transfer your transponder pill to the new key. See the TSB on this.
  19. Why would bad gas affect on one cylinder. Sorry, if the codes always point to cylinder 3 - then something is wrong at cylinder 3.
  20. Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  21. As I recall almost one inch lower than stock with PSS9s. I would change the sway bars too - that will be one low very stiff street car. I predict a bent wheel or two...
  22. I was just going to start a new thread with a very similar problem. It started last week, and after I started my car at work, it seemed a little rough, but not too bad, then about 6 miles later while doing about 75MPH, the car starts to run rough, like going over bad pavement, then the CEL flashes about 5 times, then stays on. When the CEL stays on, the car is fine and back to normal. I went home and got out my code reader, and accidently clicked on "clear codes". So today, after about 60 miles of everything being OK, the same exact thing happened. This time I got P0303, and P1315. I know that P0303 is misfire in cylinder 3, and P1315 is misfire in cylinder 3, emission relevant. I also just bought durametric, but I not sure if clearing with the cheap code reader, if durametric will still be able to pull up the codes. My 99 996 has about 24K on it now, and has been working great. Could this a bad MAF, or o2 sensor? Thanks! All the codes point cylinder 3 - I would check the coil pack and the spark plug on cylinder 3.
  23. According to the Service Department, the CPO will pay for the engine exchange. But doesn't this create all types of new issues like resale value? What would you do? Resale value? It could go up... ask them I think your new engine will have a 2 year warranty.
