  1. ... and you are located where? (Country and state/province) ... and you want left or right or both?
  2. The wiring between the a MY00 radio and MY02 look to be the same.
  3. Sounds like the onboard computer networking control box that controls the lights. Probably time to have them put a Porsche system tester (PST2 or PIWIS) on it.
  4. Are you sure it was Tool Pants? ;)
  5. If the battery is 4 years or older my bet would be the battery.
  6. There are o-rings in the spark plug tubes. The early cars had some problems with those leaking - but your car is new enough that they should not leak. That is why I suggested cleaning the area and making sure where the oil is coming from. Any good engine cleaner. It is hard to say where you live - dealers here charge from $1000 to about $1300 and give a 2 year warranty. Independent shops charge less but usually have a 30-90 day warranty on their work.
  7. I suggest cleaning all the oil off the car and then start the car and get it good and hot. Park the car and see if you can observer exactly where the leaks start from. If you haver a leak where the engine and transmission join it is likely an RMS leak or an IMS leak ... or both.
  8. If you turn the wheels while parked on level ground can you reproduce the noise? or While the car is at rest on level ground can you reproduce the noise by (gently) pressing down and releasing the the suspension?
  9. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=2674
  10. Looks like they come out the bottom to me. The parts list says they are H3 bulbs. (item 21 is the bulb and 22 is the socket and 23 are "repair kit bulb holder")
  11. The Cayenne service manual says...
  12. The relay has to be part number 996.618.980.01 or 996.618.980.02 or 996.618.980.03. You need to find the right relay.
  13. Hmm... what is the part number on your relay?
  14. If your relay ends in 01 or 02 then it will be different. I doubt you have the dash switch either - do you?
  15. Should be very similar to the Boxster procedure here. Just the engine and transmission are reversed.
  16. Yes, if your car is a MY99, 6 speed, C4, coupe.
  17. The most likely causes (of these types of noises) are a loose rear swaybar or a broken engine mount.
  18. Once you unlock the car with a key and started the car it should return to normal. If it does not then you may need to re-train or "reboot" your key. Do a search and you will find both procedures here.
  19. Let me clarify my response - you only need a VIN if the part is a special order item (from the Exclusive Department). These items would be things like deviating stitching, or special leather covered trim. You do not need a VIN to order a (standard) leather gearshift knob, or handbrake assembly, steering wheel, etc.. ... and IMHO a good dealer will find a way to get you the part you need/want.
  20. Here in the For Sale - Cars section, PCGB (www.porscheclubgbforum.com) if you are a member, and Rennlist.com.
  21. Welcome back! If the car has been sitting more than 5 days then the remote alarm control has shut down to conserve power. You will need to use the key to unlock the door and turn the alarm off. This is normal and described in the owners manual.
  22. I sent you a PM...
  23. You guys need to find new dealers. ;) Sunset Imports or Carnewal.com will sell you any Porsche OEM equipment without your VIN.
