  1. No, CDR 23 is a MOST (fiber optic) connected radio. Do a search here for iPod and CDR-23 you will see what others have done (i.e. in Search put +iPod +CDR-23 +CDR23).
  2. On a 997 would it be OK to have sport contact 3 tires on rear and sport contact 2 tires on front?? Can no longer get sport contact 2 tire in 265-40-18. Ask your dealer for a list of Porsche approved tires for your car or become a Contributing Member here and get access to that TSB as well as all Porsche TSBs.
  3. The lead that comes from the ignition switch (pin 50) to the starter relay is Yellow (pin 30). The relay sends two yellow wires to the solenoid (power) and the chassis of the starter is ground. Perhaps you could tell us more about the problem you are trying to solve?
  4. Here is what Porsche says "If new tires are to be mounted or the tires of one axle are to be replaced, tires of the same make, the same type and with the same specification code must always be used on each of the two axles. If tires are replaced on one axle only, the different tread depth from that on the other axle can cause a noticeable change in the familiar handling. This is especially the case if new tires are mounted on the rear axle. This effect decreases with increasing tire mileage."
  5. Exact model and year of your car please?
  6. :welcome:
  7. 996.641.103.03.70C is for a 98-99 C2 6 speed. It may work and it may not. Porsche had a cluster change in MY2000 - so some MY200 cars have a later (MY2001) cluster and some have a MY200 cluster. Do you know the part number on your current cluster?
  8. I would reset it since you did the change.
  9. It will be a tough reach - both are on the top of the transmission (more or less).
  10. 996.641.103.02.70C Instrument cluster (rally black)
  11. I would get some Pentosin and bleed the clutch circuit to make sure you don't have trapped air somewhere. At this point it would appear that the problem is air and/or a bad slave cylinder.
  12. Checking accumulator 1. Cold start engine (accumulator temperature approx. 20°C) and let run for approx. 20 seconds (accumulator is full). 2. With the engine switched off, depress the clutch pedal repeatedly until an abrupt rise in pedal resistance against your foot can be felt (accumulator is empty). While doing this, count the number of depressions carried out up to the point of the rise in pedal pressure. 3. If the number of times the pedal was depressed is over 35, the accumulator is faulty and must be replaced.
  13. The adjustment procedure is in your Owner's Manual (pages 338,339 I think).
  14. Doesn't seem to allow me to upload a file, sorry What is file type?
  15. The valves are closed with engine vacuum (your switch actuates an electrical solenoid). So check operation of the switch and the vacuum lines. The valves are normally open (loud).
  16. A good dealer will do this for free - certainly don't let them charge you over 1 hour labor - it takes less than 5 minutes. Using a PST2 or PIWIS tester: Go to the Alarm Section -->Coding-->Version coding Then choose based on: Version 1 - The doors are automatically locked as soon as the ignition is switched on. Version 2 - The doors are automatically locked if the vehicle exceeds a limit speed of 5 km/h. Version 3 - The doors are automatically locked as soon as the ignition is switched on. If the doors are opened while the engine is running, automatic re-locking takes place if the vehicle exceeds a limit speed of 5 km/h. Version 4 - The doors are not locked automatically. (default from factory) Note: Automatically locked doors can be opened by pressing the central locking button (central locking switch) or by pulling on the door handle twice.
  17. Please read this and follow the instructions... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  18. There is no difference - all 9x6 US Porsche's are the same. My Carrera came from a dealer in Texas.
  19. Ask folks in your local Porsche club region if they know of shops with one of those tools.
  20. :welcome: You will need a PST2 or PIWIS tester to change options. Where are you located? A number of members have these tools and will do it for free.
