    What are the current code(s)?
  2. Loren
    :(
  3. Loren
    Sounds more like a loose swaybar...
  4. 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.
  5. Loren
    Yes, the 997 number above is listed in the 996 parts list. They started using it in 2005.
  6. 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

    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)?
  10. Loren
    I would remove the covers on the underside and check for things bent or damaged. The cover just unscrew as I recall.
  11. 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.
  12. 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".
  13. Loren
    Check for a corroded ground wire in the rear trunk.
  14. Loren
    Try 2672 or 2674
  15. 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.
  16. 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
  17. Loren
    Or... you could have just used the "Glossary of Technical Terms" on the Quick Menu ;)
  18. Loren
    Learn something new everyday switch on hold down TP for 10 seconds. would'nt have found it without this forum many thanks.Could'nt find how to do it in the radio manual that came with the car. Becker 1 type 4467 Serial no Y5026921 24/99 Try 6971 or 6973
  19. Loren
    You are joking right? Jeez I hope that wasn't a dealer...
  20. Loren
    How to get your radio to display the serial number has been covered here many times. As well you can download the manual here. Please do a search...
  21. Loren
    Is that your VIN or radio serial number? If it is your radio serial number then try 8893 or 8895
  22. Loren
    See if your car came with Option 1D6. That is the towing/trailer hitch option and should have included everything except the ball.
  23. Loren
    Only works on car with Seat Memory.
  24. Loren
    Yes, a good number of MY99, 00, and 01 cars had their radio replaced for peeling buttons. Mine was replaced too - I should throw away my old radio code card - it just confuses me when I need to use the code.
  25. Loren
