  1. Somebody posted a pic a while back of a stack of rotors in the prep area of the Atlanta PDE. As I recall the person they talked to said new rotors about every 2-3 weeks for full time track cars. So about 40-50 hours of track time.
  2. Remember when you replace an MAF the DME needs to be reset (either with a PST2/PIWIS or with a battery disconnect for 5 minutes). The DME needs to learn the new MAF and it is normal to have the car run rough for the first several miles until the DME adapts to the new part(s).
  3. Carrera 4 rotor minimum thickness limits (after any machining) Front: 26.6 mm Rear: 22.6 mm Carrera 4 rotor minimum wear limits Front: 26 mm Rear: 22 mm
  4. I have both the US and RoW parts lists and the numbers are the same for both. 996 TT (steel) rear calipers are 996.352.425.60 and 996.351.426.60
  5. Remove the secondary air pump: 1. Pull off right connecting hose between charge air cooler and pressure pipe: · Unclip the locking clips using a screwdriver and pull off the hose. · Then re−clip the locking clips onto the pressure pipe. · Ensure correct seating. 2. Remove switch−over valve on the secondary air pump: · In order to do this, press the locking tabs of the holding clip with a screwdriver in the direction of the secondary air pump · and at the same time push the switch−over valve to the right and remove. · Undo upper fastening screw M6 x 10. 3. Undo lower fastening screw M6 x 10. 4. Disconnect the electrical plug connection. Undo air hose and pull off. 5. Lift the secondary air pump out of the engine compartment.
  6. There isn't really a DIY for that. But to get to the injectors on that side they recommend removing the air pump. I think you just need enough room to get your hand(s) in there.
  7. Okay, I won't tell you that is how you get to the tank, motor, etc. ;) It's not really that hard - maybe 15 minutes.
  8. Cracked tanks, loose hoses/clamps, and bad motors - we've seen them all. You really don't know till you get in there and have a look.
  9. The following Order Guides have been added or updated today: 2007 987 Boxsters (US) 2007 Caymans (US) 2007 997 Coupes (US) 2007 997 Cabriolets (US) 2006 Cayenne S Titanium (US) 2007 GT3 (US) 2007 987 Boxsters (CAD) 2007 987 Caymans (CAD) 2007 997 Coupes (CAD) 2007 997 Cabriolets (CAD) 2007 997 GT3 (CAD)
  10. With out the last two numbers of the part number it is impossible to tell. It should be something like: 996.352.425.xx
  11. Sorry, but I think that the fix is likely temporary. The connectors corroded and that is why Porsche replaced them with gold contact connectors.
  12. A bad MAF would not usually cause misfires on only two cylinders. You may have another problem with the P1125 but I would fix the misfires first - clear the codes and see if it comes back. The correct Porsche part number for your MY car's spark plugs is: 996.170.207.91 They should be: 14FGR 6KQU
  13. 996.613.155.10.A05 black mat finish spoiler switch -- MSRP $33.84.
  14. Loosen the drive shaft nut before you raise the car. Then disconnect it at the wheel carrier.
  15. P0304 Misfire, Cylinder 4, Damaging to Catalytic Converter P0306 Misfire, Cylinder 6, Damaging to Catalytic Converter P1125 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation Area 1 (Cylinders 4 - 6) - Lean Threshold If the CEL is flashing it should not be driven. I would start by looking for cracked coil packs on cylinders 4 and 6.
  16. Worn wire rubbing on the metal frame? Shorted motor?
  17. D7Z is correct (verified it with the latest parts list). The early copy of the service manual I have must be wrong - I have updated the Cayenne colors page too. Cayenne colors
  18. I suggest you read this first... http://www.tintcenter.com/laws/CA/
  19. The clutch pedal bad news is - no. The brake pedal however can be adjusted by adjusting the pushrod.
  20. They exist -- sorry, we just don't have them.
  21. Perhaps this is what you are doing? In-dash Spoiler (Tail) Switch Mod
  22. Jonas, Have a look at Carrera TSB 2005 Carrera 4 – Running Out of Fuel. I think this same principle applies to TT since it has the same fuel tank configuration (due to 4 wheel drive).
  23. I think a re-calibration might be the first thing I would try - especially since it is so consistent.
  24. All TSBs are available here for viewing by Contributing Members.
