  1. Apparently when we did a minor update to the site a couple of weeks ago it broke the special searches in the TSB section, the P-codes, section and the Options Codes section. Sorry, folks didn't realize until today. All have been fixed and should be working as normal again.
  2. 000.044.500.37 is for a Turbo Coupe MY03-05 and includes engine mounting parts for a Turbo engine. 000.044.500.38 is for a Carrera C4S Coupe MY03-05 and includes engine mounting parts for a Carrera engine.
  3. Porsche uses Elf Glacelf Supra Antifreeze Coolant.
  4. Usually a clunk in the back when you go over bumps - and sometimes also when you corner.
  5. If it was done at a dealership then it should be in Porsche's database. Call your friendly dealer - give them your VIN and ask them to look it up. If it was done outside of a dealer then you may never know. If it were my car and I couldn't prove it had been done I would do it anyway. You might be wasting a little money but at least you have service history starting point.
  6. Have a look at the Maintenance Checklists here. Do you have any service records so that you know the 30,000 mile major service was done. I wouldn't touch any seal that is not leaking. A common problem with the rear suspension is loose swaybar mounts.
  7. You can likely get it pretty clean by holding the butterfly open and spraying behind it. I like to remove the throttle body because it is not hat hard and then you can see the back side of the butterfly (without forcing it open) and make sure that the small idle holes at the edges are clean.
  8. One thing you might try is a top calibration. This is done with a PST2 or PIWIS and resets the top transmissions on each side so they move evenly (at least that is what we think it does). I did this once for a guy with a MY00 Cab and seemed to solve his problem. The assumption here is that you have checked to see that nothing is bent or broken in the top hardware.

    mk1 flywheel

    I think you folks are losing site of the original posters question - "Did the mk1 come with a single mass flywheel?" and I think we have shown here the answer is no and yes. No in the standard version and yes in the ClubSport version. Is this not true?

    mk1 flywheel

    The Cup flywheel is 964.102.239.80. The one listed above for ClubSport (M003 and M004) cars is 964.102.239.31.
  11. Have a look at TSB 5/99 2015 Fuel Tank Hose Modification -- dated 8-12-1999. It may pertain to your car too.
  12. It will depend on the size of your hand - some folks can reach up from underneath and grab it and some folks take one of the plastic rivets out to slip their hand in (that would be me). A CDR-23 is a MOST bus radio will only work in a MY03 and newer car.
  13. Bad news - those control motors are all controlled through the Climatronic. I think you should re-check your connections and if they are okay then your Climatronic is likely bad.
  14. There is likely nothing wrong with your fan. This question has been answered many many times here (please try a search next time). http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...post&p=1530
  15. If you want me to look at the schematic - then I need to know model and model year please (as requested at the top of this forum).
  16. You should not remove the oil cap with the engine running. The oil vapor system is part of the US emissions requirement. Your car may come back to normal after a few drive cycles or you can force it to re-learn by disconnecting the battery for a short time. Keep your radio handy if you decide to disconnect the battery.
  17. I would start with cleaning the front radiators - especially if it has never been done. Just remove the front bumper and clean the AC condensers and the radiators behind them. How to Remove the Front Bumper
  18. Part numbers change all the time and unless there was another reason to update the TSB Porsche rarely updates them for part number changes. I guess they assume their parts system will tell you the new part number when you place an order (which it usually does).
  19. Do you have a 996TT Service Manual? The procedure is about 51 steps and several pages.
