  1. Send a PM to doncapecod - he likely knows someone there.
  2. You must have an early MY99 car. The parts list says to replace with: 996.106.250.55 Hose -- MSRP $52.02 and 996.106.243.54 Water return tube --MSRP $47.37 and you should use new spring clamps too. Talk to the good folks at Sunset Imports for parts at dealer cost plus 15% (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost )
  3. My does it all the time - I usually drive my car 2 or 3 times a week. As long as the noise goes away when warm then you are likely okay.
  4. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showforum=159
  5. Likely just a hydraulic lifter. If the car is not driven for a few days the oil all drains down into the sump so when you start the car the lifters will make some noise - this is normal. Just give the car a little warm up time when it has not been driven for a few days - usually a minute or two is enough.
  6. What do you want the buttons to do? The steering wheel likely will fit but you would need to wire the functions to the wheel.
  7. Navigation disk are going to be available from either Navtech or Porsche in your country. Every country is different - so you need to talk to a knowledgable dealer that can tell you where to get it.
  8. On Board Computer
  9. Skipp - please have a little patience... give folks a couple of days to respond. A picture might help folks understand where the problem is too.
  10. Uh... a GT3 flywheel has 9 bolts and a Carrera flywheel has 8.
  11. Pretty much the same on a 997 - I think the clips are different.
  12. Sorry, but that is correct.
  13. Did the shop change out your alarm control box and forget to re-program the power window control? The controls are country specific.
  14. Did you enter them as I267 and I268?
  15. Model year of your car please and color of surround?
  16. I267 -- Automatically dimmable interior and exterior mirror I268 -- Rain sensor I502 -- perhaps 562 Airbag drivers side and passenger side I584 -- Storage box on engine cover
  17. No it is not a spray. The "offical" workshop practice is to remove the pedal cluster, clean and re-grease the bushings (on both the clutch and brake pedal arms). I think any good lithium based grease will work fine. Here is the tech low down on Castrol Optitemp LG grease.
  18. Option code 267 self dimming mirrors. Option code 268 rain sensor.
  19. Do not remove the return spring - lubricate the assembly with Optimal, Optitemp LG2 grease, Part No.: 000.043.203.37.
  20. Are you sure P0430 is the only code? Many times there is another code that indicates a bad O2 sensor (as Chris_in_NH said). P0430 says you need a new cat. Please double check that you don't have any other codes.
  21. Lighter should be D5 not C7.
