    Not exactly... The US 40th anniversary car gets special springs and shocks for the rear only (spring color code grey/grey) that are different than the RoW M030. As a matter of fact the RoW version of the 40th anniversary car gets yet a different set of rear springs and shocks (spring color code green/green). I think the shocks are just a little stiffer. The spring and "official" ride heights have not yet been published in the tech manuals.

    I generally add half a quart at a time and then re-check. You do not want to over fill and the bars do not need to be at the top (full).

    :lol: I don't know anybody that uses high beams....

    Some folks say you can just push them back into place until you hear a snap. Personally, I like to push as far back as possible then use the tool to lock it in place. Then I can feel and hear it latch into place.

    David just did this spare tire upgrade. You can find his DIY here.

    Well, if it is not the knob itself then there is bad news. Porsche does not sell parts of the shifter mechanism (i.e. shaft and housing). Like the 6 speed housing you can only buy it as an assembly.

    180 to 190 is normal. In spirited or track driving maybe up to 210 or 220. A third radiator will help some in spirited and track driving.

    Antonio, That is many TSBs! Do you want start with just the hardtop?

    Perhaps the bulb is burned out? Have you tried swapping bulbs?

    There is a thread on the Optima battery here. Any group 48 or 47 battery should work. Just make sure it has the connection for the vent hose (remember our batteries are inside) and the terminals are on the right side, ;)

    Scott, If you have not been having any electrical problems it is likely just the battery. When these "new technology" batteries go... they pretty much die all the way. That is, it is not uncommon to have a cell failure with a very low state of charge. I would get a new battery (you would need one within a year anyway) as that will likely take care of it.

    Kevin did this write-up on installing the TrafficPro Navigation system in a 2002 TT. You can download the PDF version below (about 550 KB). TrafficPro_Install.pdf

    There is a 14 page TSB with fixes for a number of hardtop noises. I can email you this if you want or you could make your dealer fix it. There is also a TSB about new latches - do you have those?
  18. Loren
    Are you asking about item 5?
  19. Loren
    Patrick, Contributing Members can view actual TSB online here. We have no set amount for donations, whatever you feel is appropriate. To donate, simply click one of the PayPal image links at the bottom of any page or on the Donations link at the top.

    I do not have a copy of that TSB. I did check the parts list and the thermostat part has not changed. So, it could be a selective replacement (by VIN) TSB. I'll ask around and see if other folks with subscriptions got this one.
  21. Loren
    Contributing Members get access to the TSB Listing with links to the actual TSB. The approved oils list is a TSB there. The most popular approved oils are in the Oil Change DIY sectrion also.

    Which piece the knob or the part of the trim below the knob? (and color?)
  23. Loren
    It is already available here to Contributing Members ;)

    You will need to: 1. Open the convertible top half-way. 2. Apply lubricant (krytox) thinly onto the rubber spacer only.
  25. Loren
    Well, they may fit but they were made for the MY02 and newer cars. I don't really care for how the new ones attach though. The older Aerokit Cup sideskirts attach using epoxy and screws where the new ones use a few screws and double stick tape. Either way find a quality installer. When they are painted and attached you should not see any gap where they meet the body (i.e. less than 1/16 inch). You can get either from Carnewal.com or Sunset Porsche.
