  1. From the OBD II manual - initially temperature is a factor that turns the pump off - but the pump at run when engine is at operating temperature. Potential fault areas are: fuse relay DME air supply lines or bad pump.
  2. Jumping - probably yes but the TSB does not give the pins they say just use the new harness. Aerokit wiring harness: 997 612 670 71 Electric wire harness - retail $46.37 (as of Oct 2005)
  3. Sorry, no a 996 shifter will not work. The 993 uses a different transmission and shift linkage (rods vs. cables). I don't think B&M makes a shifter for the 993TT.
  4. I suggest the latter... ;)
  5. Very well done! :thumbup: Reminds of the old days....
  6. We have added the DME Fault Texts for DME 7.1.1. DME 7.1.1 is used on: Cayenne (955) MY03-04 You can find this information in OBD II P-Codes
  7. There were two PCM2 software/firmware upgrades for PCM2 - one in August and one in September. Your OPC should have TSBs on these (the US/Canada ones are here in the TSB section). It does not say all the changes but there a number of variations that were shipped - that all need updates. Have a look at TSb 12/05 9110 PCM2.1 Navigation Update - dated Sept 7, 2005 For example:
  8. 999 170 207 91 for all Carrera's to MY01. 14FGR 6KQU Retail $13.32 (each) - as of Oct 2005)
  9. Oil drain plug on crankcase - 70 Nm (52 ftlbs) Oil drain plug for oil container - 60 Nm (44 ftlbs) Oil drain plug for turbocharger - 30 Nm (22 ftlbs) Oil filter cover - 25 Nm (19 ftlbs)
  10. Yes, bumper front fenders, headlights and wiring to the lights. The front bumper reenforcement will also need to be be cut back or replaced with the MY02 and newer one. Depending on the bumper you choose you may also need to replace the radiator ducting.
  11. You need to find someone with a PST2 (or PIWIS) and see what sensor is triggering. The PST2 can also test each alarm section (without actually setting the alarm off).
  12. There is a 7 page TSB that covers 9 different hardtop noise issues.
  13. I guess I would start to look at the wiring and pins in the plugs. Also, was the part number of the replacement the same as the original or a "newer" part number?
  14. Did you do the new throttle adaption?
  15. If you have the stock shifter there is no set screw. In that case the shift knob can be removed nt twisting and pulling at the same time. Be careful because sometime when it finally comes off - it is very abrupt.
  16. The parts list shows 996 637 243 01 for MY99-00. Of course you could always upgrade to the Carrera GT Design Key 000 044 000 83 ($120 US - retail as of Oct 2005). The design key needs to have your transponder moved to the new key. The older keys require an authorized dealer to program the new key into your car.
  17. We have added many new and or revised TSBs to the site with the site update today. Here are the new totals by model: Boxster (986) - 231 Boxster (987) - 43 Carrera (996) - 226 Carrera (997) - 59 Carrera GT - 10 Cayenne - 130 GT3 - 10 TT/GT2 - 126 Literature/Other - 32 You can read more about some of the site updates in my Blog here.
  18. Are you talking about the A/C Heater controls? on a US/Canada car? If so, the readout in the A/C controls can only be changed with a PST2 (or PIWIS) tester. If you are talking about the instrument cluster (on a US/Canada car) it can not be done.
  19. Folks -- please keep it friendly here. Let's talk Porsche's... (this thread is now closed)
  20. If that hose goes in a big way you will lose it all. A one year old car is way to early for hose issues unless it was defective from the factory or damaged somehow. Since you are still under warranty just let them fix it.
  21. Retail $29.52 (as of Oct 2005)
  22. Porsche has written an installation TSB that is quite good. It is TSB 0301 9142 Installation of Rear Speakers - dated 8-22-03. It is available here to view for any Contributing Member.
  23. Wrong! All you need to do is make sure that the Order Type in DME is set to 986310 for a Boxster or 986320 for a Boxster S. Once that is set you exit the DME. Then go to Instrument Cluster, Modify Coding and change the setting. Here are some pics of the 2nd part of the process: http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...indpost&p=34584 Where are you located?
