  1. ...and you did get longer wheel bolts right?
  2. Same as a 996.
  3. The seat belt signal goes to the instrument cluster and the airbag control. Since the seat belt signal is used by the airbag circuitry too so I doubt you want to mess with that. The rest of the circuitry is internal to the cluster. Still, I'm pretty sure my goes off after a few beeps too.
  4. Loren- I just ordered spacers/bolts for the rear is there a reason to add them to the front also ? Porsche recommends it and it will not hurt anything. It will just make your track 5 mm wider.
  5. If it is the artic silver as the last 5 or 6 years then it is 92U. Did you see the Carrera External Paint Colors here?
  6. If it is a C2 then it could be the idle speed valve is carbon'ed up and stuck. I would clean both before replacing any parts. Also, get the fault code.
  7. The month and year of manufacture is on the sticker on the drivers door.
  8. There have been 3 tanks for the MY99-00 Carrera's 996 106 147 54 996 106 147 55 996 106 147 56 (this is the newest one) For MY01-02 Carrera's there has been another 2 tanks: 996 106 157 01 996 106 157 02 (this being the newest) For MY03- there has only been 1 tank (so far): 996 106 157 03 There is no guarantee that it won't happen again - but most dealers give a 1 -2 year warranty on their work. Oh... and make sure your cap (for the tank) is the newer one - it should be 996 106 447 01. The 00 version is known to leak too.
  9. It is the same as on a Carrera except for the amount of oil (see the table at end of the DIY). You can find it here
  10. Does your car have AC? The sensor is standard on all cars with AC. If you have the plug then maybe someone had a fender bender and didn't replace it.
  11. Turbo or normal 996?
  12. Make sure you get the kit with the longer bolts (000 044 500 09).
  13. Hmm... any signs of chatter or slipping before the work? How many miles on the current clutch?
  14. No, Turbo has a completely different engine and exhaust. What would you do with the turbos anyway? ;)
  15. Coupe and Targa get the same rear bottom seats - Cabs get a different one. Coupe/Targa Cabriolet
  16. Probably won't be cheap... I sent you a PM.
  17. I'm pretty sure that you still use the 4 wire connector called telephone prep. The mute line is pin A3 a yellow/black wire.
  18. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...findpost&p=8378 http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...w=findpost&p=24
  19. Need to size images? for Free? Yes, Just click here
  20. Try emailing Gert@Carnewal.com
  21. If your spacers are 5 mm then your bolts will need to be 5 mm longer. If your spacers are 6 mm then your bolts will need to be 6 mm longer, etc. etc.
  22. M0641 = 997 642 148 02 CD-ROM Logbook Sorry, I don't have a price for it yet.
  23. First common thing to check is for a loose rear sway bar - fairly common.
  24. Take the screws off the AC condenser, pull slightly forward and clean the radiator behind it. You will be surprised how much is behind it.
  25. Pull - evenly and carefully.
