    It just means you have one or more options from the Exclusive option list.
  2. Loren
    Try 999.590.046.40 disc cam
  3. Loren
    999.702.221.40 grommet -- MSRP $2.40

    I am not sure this a DIY project since the TSB says that you need to replace the retaining frame and replace the lift mechanism of the glass sliding cover. It also says that mixing part from the new kit and the old frame are not allowed. Welcome to the site - as you may or may not know all TSBs are available here to Contributing Members. We have a minimum of a $25 (US) donation and no maximum. Contributing Members can view TSBs online, use the Retail Price Search feature, and access the Contributors Only Forum. They can send attachments with PMs, image storage limits are raised for all Contributing Members, RennTech.org email addresses are available and a personal Blog. Contributions help defer the cost of running this site and providing this information to you. No one has to contribute but many members do. Without contributions this site would either have to go subscription or cease to exist.

    I think you worry too much ;) IN the new version you just replace the whole housing - 4 nuts.
  6. Loren
    TSB 4/05 3408 Short Shift Kit Installation Instructions - which you have access to.
  7. Loren
    Maybe a leaky fuel injector. If it were oil the pipe would have been greasy.
  8. Loren
    That would say that the mixture on cylinders 1-3 is too rich (and the DME can not lean it enough) and your misfires and your O2 sensor on the cylinder 4-6 side is shorted (or reading a very high voltage). I would find a shop with some good OBD II software and have them read the MAF air flow and TRA\FRA values so you can really see what is going on.

    From the Service Manual Instructions: "Note! The adjustment function of the seat, mirror and lumbar positions via the hand-held transmitter is correct only if the radio code and the transponder code of a hand-held transmitter are each stored at the same position in the alarm system control module." There are 15 steps in "teaching" a new key and matching the old keys.
  10. Loren
    What are the current code(s)?
  11. Loren
    :(
  12. Loren
    Sounds more like a loose swaybar...
  13. Loren
    Try 9038 or 9040 Thanks. Tried it but it didn't work. :( My program does not always work. It works maybe 95% of the time but I have no expanation why it doesn't always work. At this point you will need to contact a dealer or Becker. Becker charges to lookup your code and some dealers do too.
  14. Loren
    Yes, the 997 number above is listed in the 996 parts list. They started using it in 2005.
  15. Loren
    997.424.983.00 Short Shifter. Well, I don't think we ever found the number on the (blue) alignment tool. The number "on" the tool does not come up any any Porsche system.

    Try 9038 or 9040
  18. Loren
    Why wouldn't you buy a Porsche with a Tiptronic? Have you ever driven one? Did you know the 997TT with a Tiptronic is faster than the 6 speed (0-100)?
  19. Loren
    I would remove the covers on the underside and check for things bent or damaged. The cover just unscrew as I recall.
  20. Loren
    Without the fault code(s) everything is just a guess. Go to an Autoszone (or other auto parts store) and get your codes read. Write them down and report them back here.
  21. Loren
    That is pretty good jolt - I would get the car up on a lift and look for more underside damage. "After triggering of the airbag unit on the passengers side (parts that must be replaced): - Airbag unit, passenger's side - Triggering unit after the third time the airbag is triggered" Remember that is also likely recorded in the DME - so you might want to document the "accident".
  22. Loren
    Check for a corroded ground wire in the rear trunk.
  23. Loren
    Try 2672 or 2674
  24. Loren
    Did anyone ever change the dials/faceplate on the cluster? You can screwup a gauge that way. The cluster can be a problem - you should check with Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) for a better price.
  25. Loren
    Are you sure the calibration was done correctly? You have to take all the fuel out of the tank - then put in a measured amount. Then do the calibration. See How to become a Contributing Member at the top of any forum
