    Removing side window seal Remove the side window seal with the convertible top open and the side window extended. To do this press the microswitch in the windscreen frame and actuate the rocker switch at the same time until the side window is completely extended. Pull the side window seal down and out of the window profile. Installing side window seal Remove adhesive residues from above and below the window profile if present. Pull the side window seal from below into the window profile. Pull it in using soapy water as a lubricant. Clean the upper seal end (free from grease and lubricant). Coat the upper surface of the seal (1) with Loctite 480 instant adhesive and bond with the side window profile.

    Hmm... I don't know. Try measuring the thickness of the plate.

    Toe is measured as Toe difference angle at 20° lock. Toe unpressed (total) would be + 5' ± 5'

    The steering angle sensor (PSM cars only) is supposed to checked at each alignment - but rarely needs changing. Just so folks know... the Baum Tools Porsche Scan tool (with Porsche software module) is $3700. It looks very good but I could buy a used PST2 for that and have a lot more capability.

    The mirror (glass) is held in place by metal clips. If you carefully pull mirror out of the metal clips (and disconnect the electrical plug) you can inspect the clips for damage/ I think the clips are riveted in so you might have to replace the whole mechanism if one is broken.

    There are a couple of solutions in this thread.

    The tolerance color codes are different for front and rear springs and the code to use with your new springs is on the springs. A = Running gear type code, B = Compensation part code For (a Carrera) the front are: 1 white line = 3.0 mm thick compensation part 1 green line = 6.5 mm thick compensation part A = Running gear type code, B = Compensation part code For the rear: 1 white line= 0.5 mm thick compensation part 1 green line = 4.0 mm thick compensation part Your front springs running gear type for MY02 C4 Cab with RoW M030 should be: lilac/orange No blue unless you have a C4S?

    The steering angle sensor is integrated into the steering column switch on a Cayenne. I wonder if it was damaged or disconnected with the airbag work.
  13. Loren
    It depends on the suspension. Stock US, stock RoW, X73?
  14. Loren
    Do you have a pic?

    Sorry, they do not. They only stock and sell complete headlight units. Each Litronic headlight has a retail price of $1260.16.

    P0410 Secondary Air Injection System, Bank 1 - Below Limit - Signal Implausible (Cylinders 1 - 3) P1411 Secondary Air Injection System, Bank 2 - Below Limit - Signal Implausible (Cylinders 4 - 6) Sounds like your air pump was not working. Could be a loose connection.

    Did you read the "Forum Features Explained" Forum? Here is a link to the section on attachments Attachments

    Most likely you just got water in the connector.

    To my knowledge there are only two or three ways a cat can go bad. One is that it becomes clogged with debris - from rusting and breakdown of pre-cat pipes or the cat breaking down itself. The second is that it becomes contaminated. Some engine oil additives or engine problems that cause the mixture or the temperature of the exhaust gases to change can reduce the effectiveness and life of the cat. Leaded gasoline and the over-use of fuel additives are said to shorten the life of a cat considerably. Even some gasket sealers and cements can contaminate a cat. Finally, physical damage to the cat by backing over something or being struck (as in an accident).

    Darn, don't you hate when those OBD II codes are right? ;) Glad it's taken care of.

    Special thanks to drpaulmarsh, Ryan Hanson & Hans Wiederrich for their fine write of a RoW M030 Suspension Install. Great job! :cheers: The new DIY is in the DIY section and can be found here.

    If the car was always taken to the same dealer then I would think they can make copies of their work. All work should be recorded in the PCNA database but I have never seen a printout from that database. So, I don't know if it is possible.

    OMG... an owners manual is like $18 from a dealer

    Each circuit (switched and unswitched) have a 7.5 A fuse. So as long as you don't have option(s) M614 (phone prep - motorola), M618 (phone prep - generic), or M662 (Nav) then the circuit is unused.
  25. Loren
    Well, if the cat is not doing it's job then the O2 sensor will tell the DME to make the fuel mixture leaner or richer. At some point it will not be able to maintain proper mixtures. Potentially it could run the engine way too lean and cause damage or way too rich and waste fuel.
