    An airbag code will only show up on the Durametric software. a PST2 or PIWIS -- not on most generic readers.

    Try 0616 or 0614

    Check you Owner's Manual. The brake fluid is under the front hood. A low fluid level would trigger a warning light (as would pad wear). Either there is air/water in the brake fluid or something else is wrong.

    1. According to Porsche's book time it should take 7 hours. 2. You will need to break the engine in just like a new engine. 3. I don't know about where you live - but in the US you can not change the odometer unless you file paperwork with your local government as to the true mileage on the car. Unless you never sell the car.

    You don't need Autospies - these pics are all on Porsche's website.

    Not that I can think of other than the rear wheel will be next to some hot parts (mufflers, heat shields, etc.)

    P0446 EVAP Canister Shutoff Valve (Function) – Below Limit – Purge air line blocked – Flow resistance of EVAP canister too high P1128 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 1 – Above Limit/Below Limit P1130 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 2 – Above Limit/Below Limit – Incorrect signal from MAF sensor – Intake air system leaking – Fuel pressure too low – Volume supply of fuel pump too low – Fuel injectors fouled – Exhaust system leaking My bet on P1128 and P1130 is an air leak. Oil filler hose, AOS, or other manifold leak.

    It happens occasionally on 996's too.

    Since your car is so new and under warranty I suggest you take it in and have the dealer find the root cause. This is not normal.
  11. Loren
    Since this image has a tag on it - do you have permission to use it?
  12. Loren
    That is correct - only comes in silver.
  13. Loren
    Fan speeds and switch on tests are covered here. I can get to the ballast on my car without removing anything - from the bottom.

    I split this post off the Lost Radio Code thread because you are not asking for a code. Thank you for the compliment though. There supposedly was a few CDR-23's that were both MOST and wiring capable - but I have not seen one. Since almost all of the CDR-23 are fiber optic (only) I don't think you will have any luck converting it over. There are better 3rd party radio/NAV systems out there.

    Still looking for help so I can have some tunes for the weekend! :D Try 9142 or 9140

    Porsche headlight removal and bulb replacement is covered in the Owner's Manual. The post above has had the link removed as it was purely commercial. If you are unsure, please re-read the board Guidelines/Rules. "No commercial posting, signatures, or profile statements (including images) are allowed. Please understand "advertisements" will be either edited or deleted, as it's neither "fair" to those who support this site - nor "us", the RennTech.org community."

    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.
  18. Loren
    Thanks Richard! Here are a couple engine shots.

    Try 7285 or 8283

    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.
