    The most common problem is dirty sensors. They don't sense properly when they are covered with dirt, ice or snow.

    MY99 had some clutch spring problems - so if the noise is coming from under the dash (rather than the rear of the car) then the problem is likely a pedal/clutch spring problem. There are a couple of TSBs on this problem. If the noise is a creaking noise from the transmission bell housing then they likely did not replace your clutch release arm when they changed your clutch. Some MY99 cars had bad clutch release arms - there is a TSB on this also.

    There is a TSB on this. You need to make sure the bumper and headlight vents are not blocked with debris. I have also seen a poorly aligned bumper cover that made this problem worse. BTW... Porsche says a small amount of "fogging" is normal and the ventilation system should clear it in normal driving.

    The valve cover oil leaks should not be related to the emissions code you got previously. If the code did not come back then the problem is cured. Are you sure the valve cover gaskets are leaking and not the oil tubes or Variocam sensors? I would clean the area good and try to ascertain exactly where the leaks are coming from.

    Model year of your car please?

    Alan, Do a search here for "instrument cluster". The removal has been covered many many times.

    The back seat area in a coupe and cab are different. The cab has roll down windows the coupe does not. I doubt the seats or panels from a cab would work at all in a coupe.

    If it was the clutch slave cylinder I would think you would have the trouble in all gears.

    Two things I can think of to look at: 1. The cable adjustment at the shifter end. Any work been done like a short shifter added? If so, they may have gotten the cables out of adjustement. 2. Under the car where the cable actuate the lever arms on the transmission - look for a bent arm.

    Did you read the TSBs on this?

    The classification listed out in your manual is GL5 or MIL-L2105B. If the fluid is 75W90 and meets or exceeds the API classification you will be fine.

    The brake indicator is just a wire that can wear through or have a bad connection. You should likely have a look at them and replace them when you replace the pads.

    Individual manual sections are available from Porsche (via download PDF) for $110 each. A yearly subscription to all manuals is $5,200/year (last time I checked). So if you wanted just the 2001 TT schematics - it would be $110. You can purchase them here.

    Here is what changed in MY01. I think you are in for some rewiring since every Porsche has a custom wire harness. Pages_from_2001_911carrera.pdf

    A problem with the main switch usually causes all kinds of weird light problems
  19. Loren
    Many independent Porsche shops have them - but I would call first.
  20. Loren
    You need to find a dealer or shop with a PST2 or PIWIS tester to transfer the program (mileage, etc.) from your old cluster to your new cluster.
  21. Loren
    The headlight switch is known to wear out.
  22. Loren
    All C4's have egas. M339 is 4WD and M620 is egas.
  23. Loren
    Yes.
  24. Loren
    I think you need: 993.645.453.00 connecting cable 996.645.231.00 support bracket (C4/TT)
  25. Loren
    I suggest you replace the bad ones before they break - if they break they can take the alternator and do other damage.
