Yes about the fisterD mod. Check for rattles before you purchase it. If it rattles it is likely toast.

I think what you need is: 900.219.007.02 screw plug - US MSRP $4.02 900.123.144.30 sealing ring - US MSRP $0.38 Please double-check with your dealer.

Do you mean the coolant drain plug on the bottom of the engine?

It should fit fine. Just be sure you use your old tailpipes and tips. I would make sure there are no rattles in any used exhaust system. Rattles generally mean broken welds.

Most of the problems with this connector are either it is not seated proper and latched into place, or someone pulled to hard and broke a wire, or a wire got pinched in the console when they put it back in place. I would verify all of those before I went to the trouble to replace the connector.

Loren; Am I reading the data correctly if I interpret it to mean that over revs 1 & 2 occurred at the same time as did 3, 4 & 5 ? Actually it looks as if 3,4 & 5 were all during the same event. I have read the explanation on how to read the data but have forgotten it and am curious about the hours of what look like 2 separate events being the same. I do not know that you can tell the event time unless they have different hours on the record. Durametric explains it as follows "Notice the section for "Ignitions (Range 1)." This vehicle shows "13958/917h" which means the vehicle has used the rev-limiter for 13,958 ignitions, the last time being at 917 hours. So this indicates the engine was red-lined often and the last time occurred recently since the engine only has 917 hours. " While this whole section on the Durametric web page still confuses me, in the case of KRIEGLERR's post it would suggest that at 1171.33 hours of engine operation, 3 different over rev events occurred. In their example ,Durametric wasn't happy with the Range 2 event indicating " This vehicle shows "1/48h" which means the vehicle exceeded the red line one time during 48 hours of operation. This is an example of a possible car a Porsche dealer will not perform warranty work on as this metric indicates abuse." Can't imagine how they'd feel about range 3,4 & 5 events that the post indicates where evident. Hence my confusion with your and the dealers comments. What am I missing with regards to the data the Durametric is presenting with regard to the over revs ? Have read many posts regarding catastrophic over revs but they usually end catastrophically, if you'll pardon the pun. Everything else appears a little grey when it comes to it won't hurt the engine vs. the engine is a goner. So what would constitute an over rev event that would suggest you don't want the car ? In a perfect world you would like to zero over revs in ranges 4 to 6. In 99.997% of the cases the over revs in ranges 1 and 2 were handled by the rev limiter and (IMHO) meaningless.

No the C4S is a wide body and shared parts with the Turbo. C4S or Turbo Aerokit parts will fit a wide body cars only.

If you were on the gas when you over reved then you can not hurt the engine that way - the rev limiter protects the engine. Whereas if you were in say 4th gear and downshifted into 2nd gear at a high speed then the wheels/force of the car can over rev the engine and the rev limiter can not stop it - these are potentially engine damaging occurrences and usually show up in ranges 4 to 6. Another way to hurt the engine is to spin the car and car is traveling backwards and you fail to put the clutch in - this can actually run the engine backwards -- not good either.

PLEASE read the FAQ.

The wheel offset is different also.

As you said when you disconnected it -you do not need the MAF to start the car. The MAF does most of the work above 4000 RPM measuring incoming air flow. Another possibility is a gross air leak.

Please PM me your VIN so I can get the correct part number for the entry options your car has. Thanks.

What are the faults please?

PST2 and PIWIS are Porsche test computers. Many good Porsche shops have both or at least a PST2 (older of the two). I have both and if you live near me I'd be happy to put one on your car and see what is going on.

Have yo put the Durametric software, a PST2 or PIWIS tester on the car?

Did you read post 9 - he fixed his with new bulbs. I would still check the fuses and headlight switch first. The information is in your owners manual for bulbs and the fuse locations are on a paper inside the fuse box.

The 6 ranges are: Range 1: 7300-7500 RPM Range 2: 7500-7700 RPM Range 3: 7700-7900 RPM Range 4: 7900-8400 RPM Range 5: 8400-9500 RPM Range 6: 9500-11000 RPM You really don't need to worry about anything other than ranges 4 to 6. I would not worry about any of those over revs - likely one missed downshift could do that. I would get the misfire problem found and fixed.

Check the fuse I suggested and if it is okay then I think you need to put a PST2 or PIWIS on the car and find out what works and what does not.

Check the transmission oil level - if it is not that then you might be looking at a rebuild.

cheers loren no the abs light dosnt come on. another question please will a rear suspension damper and spring from a c2 coupe fit a c4 coupe No C2 and C4 have different weight balances (4WD in C4) so the spring rates and damper rates are different for the weight differences. Similarly the weight difference between a 6 speed and Tiptronic also require different suspension components.
