  1. Hi - I lost my manuals and radio card (wisely stored in house, which burned down) in the October San Diego wildfires (Saved the boxster, though!). Forgot this when I recently disconnected battery. Now I can't reactivate radio. Boxster 2002 CR-220 Type 4462 Serial: 15005427 "24/99" VIN#WP0CA29862U622175 Thanks alot for any help. Try 7306 or 7304
  2. That is what is strange those are not buckle codes (there is a TSB for buckles and ground connections). Buckle codes are 44 through 50. I wonder if someone put old (prior to MY02) seat belts on the car without the pyrotech devices? that is very strange... Where do you live?
  3. Correct - option 220 is LSD (Limited Slip Differential).
  4. Fault 23 Driver's seat belt tensioner Fault memory/warning light Fault 25 Passenger's seat belt tensioner Fault memory/warning light Fault 27 Ignition circuit, passenger Fault memory/warning light Did you change the seat belts or remove the seats?
  5. Both are standard US suspension (not M030).
  6. MY00 Boxster chassis ground points
  7. 74mm 14 flute - $3.99 at Pep Boys (3/8" drive) The DIY is exactly the same as the 996 DIY. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=7055
  8. From Porsche's TSB Approved Oils - Tiptronic Transmission ATE Super Blue is the same as ATE Typ 200 Gold - their properties are exactly the same.
  9. :welcome: Did you see this: Turbo LCD Gauge/Instrument Cluster Upgrade
  10. All 997's (so far) use the same MAF. Whether 3.6 or 3.8 they are all the same part number. 986.606.125.01 (yes a 986 number) and it is used on: GT3-1 (996) GT3-2 (997) CGT 996 MY02 and newer (3.6 liter engines) 986 MY00 and newer with re-programming required of the DME (exception: special edition spyder)
  11. Loose hose clamp or perhaps the new tank was cracked putting it in?
  12. I also have a leak coming from around the tank area. One problem, the coolant tank was replaced a few months ago and therefor is new ! I came back from a "spirited" run to find coolant dripping quite badly from very close to the top of the black overflow tube (Under the top of the resevoir lip). It looks like the coolant is "tracking" around the back of the resevoir and dripping down beside the overflow tube? No coolant is coming out of the overflow tube. I cannot see where the leak is coming from. Could it be the new tank has failed, or is there a coolant pipe leaking that would allow the coolant to travel around the top / back of the resevoir and drip off the lip? Any help appreciated. Have you check the tank cap? If the part number ends in 00 it likely needs to be replaced (with the 01). Seems all of the 00 part number caps eventually leak.
  13. My understanding is that the XSU Lowered Seats option is accomplished by providing a 10 mm thinner seat bottom seat cushion.
  14. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...ost&p=93149
  15. That part number is correct.
  16. Try cleaning and lightly lubricating your clutch return spring (on the pedal assembly).
  17. Try 0398 or 0396
  18. It would not hurt since you are changing the airflow somewhat.
  19. Please read through some of this thread - that has been explained several times...
  20. Try 3261 or 3259
  21. Sorry, all of your part numbers are missing the last two digits. Since it says VariCam and not VarioCam Plus that would imply that it is a 3.4 liter engine (MY99-MY01).
  22. Try 0571 or 0569
  23. :welcome: From the Documents Menu at the top of the page - choose "Option Codes Lookup". http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?autocom=options
  24. I would call around to various dealers and get part cost plus shipping costs. I would start with Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost).
  25. :soapbox: Read my Blog (link in signature below) for my 2 cents....
