    Try 4582 or 4584

    Yes, that comments is from the older air cooled Porsche's with a separate oil tank. In the current version cars only GT2, GT3, and TT have a separate oil tank to drain. But that is covered here in the DIY sections.

    Sounds normal to me. I get some tapping unless the car is started every day.

    No, that part number is a standard 3 spoke wheel.

    Welcome to the PORSCHE WORLD of $$$$ Repairs. I am not sure where you get the high cost from - it could be just a loose clamp.
  7. Loren
    Well, you will have to see what you can see with just the column covers off. There will be limited access.
  8. Loren
    Then it must be a radiator hose or the radiator itself.

    Are you sure it is antifreeze and not windshield washer fluid? The windshield washer tank is in the left front fender well.

    This is about as good as I can get from my schematic...

    Any range 2 overrevs are always a concern because you can only get them with missed downshifts and/or spinning the car backwards.

    :oops: 1128
  13. Loren
    Try 11128 or 1130

    If you used the switched connection then you will only have power when the key is on.

    You will need to ask your dealer/OPC about which phone services are supported in your country.

    Hi there Lauren, I am very sorry to bother you on my first day, but I was also able to locate my Engine Tranny Code, I would appriciate anything you could tell me about it. Mine is also a 2005 996 TurboS but with Tiptronic S transmission and Cabriolet. My number reads as M9670-645 A9650-10... Thanks... Devrim Uh... it's "Loren" M9670-645 is a 360 KW (or about 483 HP). A9650-10 is a 5 speed Tiptronic transmission

    Where are you located and who is the dealer. The tech is supposed to do a measurement on the seal bore after removing the leaking seal - if it does not meet factory specs then they are supposed to replace the motor -- period. It would also be worth asking if the they used the newest seal last time - it would start with a 997.xxx.xxx.xx part number.

    Go back and look at the insulators on the coil packs. My guess is that one of more is cracked.
  19. Loren
    Are those from an order guide? Because they are not found on the car. Look under your front hood for a sticker with the option codes the car shipped with. Most should start with M or I.
  20. Loren
    For legal reasons you are allowed read but not copy, print or distribute the TSBs.
  21. Loren
    You will need to contact your regional Porsche AG representative. If you don't know them then you will need to contact Porsche AG in Germany. In the US and Europe you do not buy the PIWIS tester - you lease it from Porsche.

    All you are doing is pushing the pistons back in (slowly and carefully) so that new pads will fit into the calipers. This action will push brake fluid back into the brake fluid reservoir (in the front trunk) - so you need to be careful that it does not overflow. Unless you have a bad piston seal there should be no reason to bleed the brakes after a pad change. Once you are done and ready to drive the car - start the car and press the brake pedal several times to seat the new pads. follow the pad manufactures recommendations for "bedding in" the new pads.
  23. Loren
    Do you have any lights (airbag) or other problems? If not, I would double check with the folks at Durametric. Could be Porsche did an update they are not aware of...
  24. Loren
    Can you get a pic of it and post it?
  25. Loren
    That is why I have a metal one. Sometimes in one of our work on cars days we see oil filters (and drain plugs) that are way over torqued.
