  1. K 996 505 980 92 900 RS front bumper in white This is a special order item from Porsche Motorsports.
  2. It will all come down to whether you can get it out (and the new one in) removing the bumper and/or muffler. I would remove the rear bumper first (if needed) as it is only about a 15 minute job.
  3. Yes, you will be topping up the coolant tank for a few days as the system bleeds out the air.
  4. You can usually pry them off with a screwdriver. If you bend them too much they might have to be replaced.
  5. Since it works ... how is the passenger seat wired? (wire colors please)
  6. All go to motor control. HH is up and down of either the front or rear of the seat motor. HV is up and down of either the front or rear of the seat (opposite of HH) motor. LS is Longitudinal adjust motor. These are to the motors but they are normally controlled by the seat memory controller so I don't know the signals they get. Black and white on all three go directly to the motors. In the top pic Grey/Red, Grey, Grey/Green, and Grey Black go to the Backrest Angle adjust motor. Grey/Green, and Grey Black go directly to the motor.
  7. I would start with the CD player fuse and also see if it will release and and re-insert the cassette.
  8. M580 is the option number for the 9x6 series. All 9x7 series cars use option codes starting with I.
  9. I would try a new (or some else's) relay first. It is relay position 3.
  10. Not that I've seen in the parts list. Seems strange since it was so popular in the 9x6 series.
  11. Add all the coolant that you can back in before you start the engine. Run it a little until the coolant is no longer visible in the tank - then shut it off - let it cool and add more coolant. Do this until it stabilizes between the full and low marks.
  12. Check your maintenance book that came with the car for details of any state by state exceptions.
  13. For the Cayenne S and Turbo Brake disc thickness, new front - 34 mm rear - 28 mm Brake discs minimum thickness front - 32 mm rear - 26 mm Lateral runout of the brake disc, max. 0.03 mm Lateral runout of the wheel hub, max. 0.01 mm Lateral runout of the brake disc when installed, max. 0.06 mm
  14. I would certainly make sure it is not the hose/clamp before replacing the water pump.
  15. Check for a corroded fuse connection or bad headlight switch.
  16. The only retrofit kit that I know of is for the Cayenne. I do not know if you can put that (or a 997/987) version in a 996. It is a custom unit for Porsche and may require MOST (I can't check my schematics right now as I am traveling). Other options are the aftermarket Homelink system or the garage door opener hack in the DIY section.
  17. Try our Porsche Technical Glossary (on the Quick Menu) :) "Digital Motor Electronics - Porsche's engine management system, the Bosch "Motronic" system, that controls both fuel injection and ignition functions."
  18. Is the purge fan running or not? If not then check the fuse if so you likely have a bad sensor in the tank or a bad temp sensor.
  19. Please try using our Search feature next time... http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=5
  20. Yes, you can get them almost anywhere. Just make sure they are stainless steel.
