  1. Hi Loren... Is this the link you mentioned? The pictures are quite good...But do you think I can find instructions on how to pop out the AC control unit (what tools do I use...etc) and how to secure it in the new place (where do I place the AC Unit brackets?) It seems that the manual sections (Boxster Technical Manuals Groups 6/7) I mentioned above cover exactly what I am looking for: 68 17 19 - Removing and Installing the Center Console 70 18 37 - Disassembling and Assembling Instrument Pannel Do you know how or if I can get a hold of these? Thanks, Gustavo Um... you have to buy manuals. They were over $2000 when they were in print. The upper console has been covered here many many many times.
  2. The correct number for a MY04 Cayenne S is: 955.504.962.02 Wheel-well liner FYI... 955.504.962.00 was replaced by .02 version 955.504.962.01 was for the Cayenne Turbo and it has been replaced with 955.504.962.03 Do you have all the mounting hardware? Self tapping screws and their expander nut as well as and plastic nuts.
  3. Yes, it is on the Porsche approved oil list (that you as a Contributing Member have access to). Here in the states you can find a 74 mm 14 flute wrench at Autozone, Kragen, Pep Boys, etc. Just about everybody has them as the same size fits Mercedes and BMW.
  4. I don't have a problem with folks naming the bad shops/dealers as well as the good ones. Just as long as it doesn't get turned into a naming calling flame thread - just the facts please and first hand experience (not hearsay).
  5. I agree with RFM but realize that Castrol SRF should NOT to be mixed with any other type of fluid! So you will need to do a complete flush and refill/
  6. Um... if you read the Porsche TSBs for installing the Aerokit side skirts - the instructions say to screw the side panels to the chassis. "Using a hand drill and a phillips head bit, screw in the 3.5 x 16 countersunk sheetmetal screws for the retaining strips."
  7. It would be best to state your exact location (or add it to your profile) as warranties and laws concerning them vary from country to country (and state to state in the US).
  8. The B&M short shifter center console instructions are quite good for that part and the upper center console has been covered many many times here.
  9. Just do a reverse of TSB 7/00 6830 Cupholder Installation -- dated Nov 3, 2000.
  10. Perhaps you are buying those cheap "Made in China" switches on eBay? The Audi switch works well or you can change the whole switch and lock assembly to the new style and say goodbye to switch problems. (A couple hundred dollars as I recall).
  11. Yes, they are separate and different horns. The alarm horn is next to the battery. The steering wheel horns (there are two) are behind the front bumper on the right/center. If you have a RoW car the alarm systems are different still. The bottom line is still: You need to have your alarm controller fault codes read with the Durametric Software, a PST2, or a PIWIS tester to see what the fault codes are. That will pinpoint your problem.
  12. I have not done this on a 3.6 yet but I doubt the bumper cover will need to come off.
  13. The doors are not the same on a 986 and 987 - the most notable part being the mirror wings.
  14. Not too hard with the right O2 sensor socket. 1 - Oxygen sensor ahead of catalytic converter 2 - Oxygen sensor after catalytic converter
  15. Folks if the needle is straight up on the gauge - that is normal. That is the way Porsche has designed it's gauges for years (even the race cars had the tach rotated so that max RPM was straight up and down).
  16. Your second post has been deleted. Please do not double post.
  17. P2096 Signal Delay Time for Oxygen Sensor Ageing - Above Limit Possible fault cause - Oxygen sensor I would clear the code and see if it comes back. If it does replace the sensor.
  18. Try 9302 or 9300
  19. To add to what Todd I think you only get the dot matrix display if the OBC is on. From the MY03 Boxster Owner's Manual
  20. Yes, I agree with RFM - you are bypassing the safety stop. In an accident you could shear off the seat bolt. I think I would want some kind of stop there.
  21. I don't have a Tip but it looks like it is held in place with the 4 clips just like the 6 speed boot. The service manual says nothing - so my guess would be that you just pull straight up like the 6 speed boot. Item 30 in the diagram.
  22. Really... that is so unlike Porsche. Don't the Cayenne's have a custom wire harness?
  23. There is not gasket on the cam cover - just a bead of sealant. It has been discussed here before. It is best to borrow or make a "cam holder" but not essential.
