    Those are front wheels 7.5" x 18" offset 50 mm - they should fit fine. What about the rears?
  2. Loren
    No, only if they are leaking.

    Flashing Coolant Light - What it means...
  6. Loren
    I meant what chemicals - soaps, cleaners, etc. Some are know to cause paint (or at least clear coat) peeling.

    I think they are only about $100 - from a dealer.

    The knobs can not be replaced by themselves. Some MY99 cars had the radio buttons "peel". The original buttons had stick on markings so they started to peel after some time of use. Dealers replaced the radio with an exchange or new unit when the cars were under warranty (including mine). You can try to get your dealer to do the same - but out of warranty would be purely a courtesy.

    Most spoiler bolts are held in place by Loctite thread locker - so they will snap when they break free. If you are putting the screws back in a new spoiler then be sure and put Loctite on the thread so they don't vibrate loose.

    Interesting... 996 701 811 00 G2X is in the parts list as unpainted caps - option code M218. I show $6.59 each (retail) - unpainted.

    :oops: that was the GT2 spoiler. Here is the TT spoiler hardware.

    Porsche does not make bumper plugs (they are not listed in their parts list). Some dealers sell them but I think they get them from a third party. Just order a set from BumperPlugs.com. Your color is likely Arctic Silver.

    :oops: :lol: :lol: :lol: Short term memory loss - I answered two of those last week (or the week before - see I can't remember :lol: )

    If you have an early MY99 car you might try hitting your dealer up for a freebie. There was a TSB for this way back in late 1998 so they really should have been taken care of under the (then) 5 year warranty.

    Or... you can force a reset by using an OBD II scan tool or disconnecting the battery for a few minutes. If you disconnect the battery make sure you have your radio code.
  24. Loren
    OBD II can reset any emissions fault on it's own after a specified number of "drive cycles" (they vary depending on the fault). Or, you should have the fault codes read so that fault can be corrected. It could be something as simple as a loose gas cap or something more like a bad oxygen sensor or MAF. Either way they should read the codes, correct the fault and then reset the fault codes - then test the car again.

    The engine compartment purge fan rarely comes on. Mine has only come on twice -- and I live in 90 plus degree California! Here are the conditions the fan comes on at.
