  1. The chain change was noted in the MY2001 Service Information Technik Book. So it was for sure in MY2001 models. Could it have been in some of the last MY2000 cars? I do not know but it would not surprise me.
  2. Here is a press photo of the original Cayenne S tiitanium wheels... (click to enlarge)
  3. Yeah, pretty much all Porsche wheels are silver unless you do some special order at original purchase.
  4. There were so few changes for MY2000 that Porsche did not even do a Service Information Technik Book. One of the few years there was no updated features/changes book. MY2001 was different as they made some mk2 changes/upgrades but not all. So from what I have seen and learned: -- MY1999 and MY2000 are virtually the same -- MY2001 has many unique parts of both mk1 and mk2 cars -- MY2002 through 2005 are all pretty close to the same.
  5. Tom, As a Contributing Member you can access the TSBs and see what your wheel design is. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?app=downloads&module=display&section=download&do=confirm_download&id=929 From there please tell us the wheel design and wheel diameter.
  6. :welcome: You will find the front end control unit in the front trunk - right side - near the back of the right front headlight. If the issue does not go away after replacing your battery - then you will likely have to have that control unit re-programmed by a dealer/OPC. Sorry, that happens sometimes.
  7. I think the manuals cover all models from 2003-2006 with the proper supplemental updates. If you see "2004" on some pages that was likely this specific printing. Not much different between 2003 and 2006 anyway.
  8. P2187 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 1 (RKAT1) - Above Limit Possible fault cause - Incorrect main charge signal - Intake air system leaking - Fuel pressure too low - Volume supply of fuel pump too low - Mechanical fault in injection valves - PCV valve leaks - Cap of oil filler neck leaking - Leaks in exhaust system - EVAP canister purge valve mechanically faulty (hangs open) - EVAP canister purge valve output stage faults P0441 Fuel tank ventilation system above limit value/below limit value Possible cause of fault - Tank vent faulty (remains stuck in an open or closed position) - Tank vent installed the wrong way round - Leak in scavenging lines between tank vent and positive crankcase ventilation (in the Turbo via a T-piece also on the intake side of the turbocharger) - Scavenging lines between tank vent and positive crankcase ventilation trapped or blocked (in the Turbo via a T-piece also on the intake side of the turbocharger P0509 Idle Air Control System Possible cause of fault - Dirty throttle body - Electric throttle control actuator misadjusted or damaged - Faulty Electric throttle control actuator - Intake air leak - Poor electrical connection to the Intake Air Control (IAC) valve I have highlighted the most common causes.
  9. P1502 Throttle Jacking Unit, Spring Test – Above Limit Clean the connectors, check the wiring for damage - clear the code and see if it comes back. If it does, you will likely need a new throttle jacking unit.
  10. Please read the Lost Radio Code FAQ "Can you give me a code for my PCM? These units are manufactured jointly by Siemens and Becker, and the only place where you can get the codes required is from the dealer/OPC. The PCM?s require two codes, the ICS/Siemens code and a Becker code. The ICS is the first code requested. Sorry, the only place you can get a PCM code is from a dealer/OPC."
  11. The Retail Parts Price Search feature (for our Contributing Members) has been updated to reflect November 2013 retail pricing for the US. We try to update this on a monthly basis as the price lists come available to us. For November 2013 the parts price list supports: US: 353,469 parts Thanks again to Contributing Member Porschelibrarian for his help in obtaining these lists!
  12. WOW! :thumbup: Great job on a difficult task.
  13. Different color light and different power (wattage). Be careful here inside a plastic housing -- too high a wattage will melt plastic or discolor it. I would stick close to the stock wattage (in your Owners Manual).
  14. Yes, H7 is a halogen bulb for the headlights.
  15. Please read the Lost Radio Code FAQ "CDR-23 (or later): These radios do not have a security code - that is, not that the user enters. These radios are security tested on the MOST (fiber optic bus) system to see if they are the "programmed" radio. The radios are programmed and recognized by the car?s DME and can only be replaced by a shop with a PST2 or PIWIS. These radios will not request a code when battery power is disconnected."
  16. Does your car have option 601 (Bi-Xenon Lamps) or standard Halogen lamps?
  17. When it asks for the code just enter the 4 numbers. After the last is entered the radio should work as normal.
  18. I converted this to a DIY Tutorial here (one place for comments and questions -so this will be closed)
