    Probably. You can test it by doing opening both as you describe then going back and doing each one individually and seeing if there still are bubbles.

    cool!!! I found some thread that you just leave the coolant cap off overnight and this should let the air bubbles out..is this true???the other thing I did too is, before I did it, I asked the dealership what kind of coolant I can use. He said that I could use any coolant as long as it is 50/50...so, I used prestone to top it off(this was before I located the leak)...now, i read on one of the thread that i shouldn't mix it and should stay with porsche coolant...and if mixed, it will form a jelly like coolant..can I just flush it with distilled water before I added the porsche coolant with 50%distilled water?? No, just leaving the cap off will not bleed air out. You need to open the bleed valve for a few days and check/top up the level at least daily until it stops going down. If you are doing a complete flush any good coolant for alloy/aluminum engines should be fine. Porsche's coolant is organic.

    Weight|Power | bhp/kg | Compared to C2 320bhp C2 -- 1370kg -- 320bhp -- 0.2336 -- 100.00% C4S -- 1495kg -- 320bhp -- 0.2140 -- 91.64% They still pretty close - the C2 is not a light car either...

    P0343 Camshaft Position Sensor 1 – Above Limit Check the wiring to the cam sensor (1) and then test the sensor. Check signal wire from DME control module, pin III/20, to CMP sensor for short circuit to B+ (+12 volts). Either repair the wiring or replace the sensor.

    The few of these that I have heard about turned out to be a bad amp.

    Have you tried the Registry lately? We have made some backend (database) changes that have sped it up dramatically. You can get your Porsche(s) listed in the Registry today -- and it is FREE. Share with everyone what you drive and what toys and modifications you have. The Registry can also be a useful tool for finding vehicles, mods and getting some valuable insight in things you can do to your Porsche. Either way... a great place to see some great Porsche pictures. Registry

    Thanks Loren. I am assuming the plug is #14 right? Yes, and the sealing ring is 15. Do you need the part numbers?
  13. Loren
    I agree with RFM looks like a oil filler leak... or a really sloppy job of adding oil. I would clean it up and see if it comes back.

    Curious, should the fan be always on after warm up? middle is around 175F and is on above 158F. Fan - which fan? - air injection fan should only come on for a couple minutes at start up. - the engine compartment purge fan should come on only when the engine compartment gets very hot. - the front fender fans should come on (to stage one) at prescribed temperatures and to stage two (fast) at high temps and when the AC is on.

    You can also follow the 996 instructions in the 996 DIY section. They will be very close to identical.
  16. Loren
    Take the number 1 spark plug out and carefully put a plastic straw (yes, clean plastic straw) in it's place. Slowly turn the crank until the straw is pushed out as far as it will go. Cylinder 1 should not be at (near ) TDC.

    Sorry, my bad - I grabbed the wrong image the first time. It has now been corrected.
  18. Loren
    Hmm... I am not finding those in the parts list. You might check with Jeff Clarke at Sunset Imports.

    That will depend on what the fault code is that turned the airbag light on. Well after the 3.4 install on my boxster, the airbag light came automatically. When I plug my ODBII it shows no error codes “using 996 odometer in my boxster”. From what I read here, it seems like a Durametric tool should clear the airbag light. I was just wondering would clearing the airbag light affect the airbags or disable them? No, clearing the fault does not affect the air bag performance. If the fault is still present it will cause a fault (and light) again until the fault cause is corrected.

    Try 0835 or 0833

    Turn the crankshaft (by hand) until you position is at TDC for cylinder 1. Align pulley with mark on crankcase.

    I would jack it up remove the plug - lower the jack so the car is level and let any excess drain out. Then raise it up and put the plug back in.
  23. Loren
    http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...st&p=102491 Have you checked for fault codes? If it still is not in a "Ready" state then something is still wrong. Well, the "Ready" process starts over if the battery is disconnected. So make sure you don't do that.
  24. Loren
    That is correct. There is now one drain plug and it is on the rear side of the sump.

    If you look at their spec sheet they say it conforms to Porsche spec TL774C. So I would guess it is okay - but I have also never heard of it.
