    Probably not. If you can't feel it then it is likely the tach. It might straighten itself out or it might get worse. Next time you are in to your dealer point it out to them so you go on record during the warranty period.
  2. Loren
    Sorry, I misunderstood - I thought you had a hesitation in the powerband -- ignore my comment about that. I think your idle is within spec. You might try a bottle of Chevron Techron to clean the idle circuit. How many miles on your car? If you have over 40,000 miles you could have some carbon build-up on the throttle butterfly. If that is the case then you might want to get some spray carb/fuel injector cleaner and remove the air cleaner and clean the throttle butterfly. Especially the inside. That process is covered elsewhere here and is the same as it was on the 996 (or 986).

    Factory spec is: 670 ± 40 rpm The slight hesitation is likely the VarioCam cut-over point. There have been several discussions here about it.

    Try 4376

    Your code plus 2... ;)

    If it is a good dealer (and since there is a TSB on the problem) they still might fix it for free...
  11. Loren
    Is your car under warranty? This is covered in a TSB (most likely a bad amp) and should be fixed under warranty.
  12. Loren
    The Service Reminder can be reset with the Durametric Software (about $247) or by any shop (or owner) with a PST2 or PIWIS.
  13. Loren
    You are right power steering is Pentosin and it is a green color. Either way I would pull the front underside cover and see where it is coming from. Tool Pants had a leak in his steering box for a couple of years as I recall.
  14. Loren
    :oops: I must have been asleep before... A MY02 996 cluster does not support CDR-23. MY02 still had CDR-220. Only thing that can I think of to try would be the CDR-23 setting in the DME.
  15. Loren
    Green makes me think coolant. Red makes me think steering gear (power steering fluid). Is it oily or watery?
  16. Loren
    Sounds like the emissions air pump near the engine to me. That will run for a couple of minutes at start up.
  17. Loren
    Yes, Porsche shows different part numbers for Tip mufflers. I do not the difference.

    I would define it as light.
  20. Loren
    Correct, as of MY03 Boxster ParkAssist gets it's own bumper.
  21. Loren
    You can go up to a 235 in front with no rubbing and a 285 in the rear with no problems. You want to stay within 1-2% increase/decrease tire diameter (height).
  22. Loren
    :welcome: Nice car... but then I'm partial ;)
  23. Loren
    No, it just means that hte small amount of fluid in the ABS system is not bled unless you have the Durametric Software or a PST2 or PIWIS tester hooked up to open the ABS valve/pump. I have bled brakes many times without worrying about the ABS with no ill affects.

    Laws vary by country... In what country? P0430 TWC Conversion, Bank 2 – Above Limit P1115 Oxygen Sensor Heating Ahead of TWC, Bank 1 – Above Limit Odd that it is reporting a cat problem on one bank (2) and an O2 sensor heater problem on the other bank (1). I would put a PST2 or PIWIS on the car and see if there are other codes...
