    P1255 Boost Pressure Characteristic, Upper Value Exceeded - Above Limit Possible fault cause - Leakage at pressure hoses from frequency valve to the bypass flaps - Frequency valve faulty - Vacuum modulators for bypass flaps leaking - Bypass flaps incorrectly adjusted I would start by looking for a loose pressure hose - fairly common on older cars.

    You are not going to get much out a normal aspirated engine - IF you get 30 RWHP then that is great. Most vendors exaggerate. The DME has software that will flag any changes (from factory) settings - so you would need software that can revert back to original. Softronic says they can do that.

    Try 2540 or 2538

    Do a search here on horn problems - chances are your problem is the steering wheel bushings.

    New model year production usually starts in August so your car would be an early MY99 car.

    SoCal near LA. I provided the title. A dealer in Irvine and another in Norwalk. I may try Roseville/Rocklin up in NorCal in a few weeks when I drive up there. They were kind enough to enable my OBC for free (after a fair amount of haggling and "accepting all liabilty"). Perhaps they would be more open? Perhaps I am just using the wrong tactic. Please PM me for more information.

    Switched means power is only there when the car is switched on (with the ignition key). Unswitched means that power is always present - even when the car is off. Be careful what you put on unswitched power as it could drain your battery.

    In Litronic headlights the low beam is Xenon and the high beam is Halogen. When you add in the control module the Xenon is tilted up to merge with the Halogen for high beams. Try the lights on both low and high beam.

    Unlike older Becker radios the CDR-23 is the first fiber optic networked radio (MOST) for Porsche. As Richard said, you will need a PST2 or PIWIS to select the "Vehicle Version Coding (Coupe, Cab, or Targa)", the "Air Conditioning", the "LDH/RHD Option", and the "Tuner Parameters (Europe, USA, South America, Australia, Asia, (South) Africa, Japan" on the CDR-23.

    Found the TSB in the library and also got a printable copy from my Porsche parts contact. That TSB (at least at the initial reading) is the most convoluted and confusing document I've read in a long time. I plan to carefully read it again to attempt to make sense of it and determine if my PCM & Bose units are up to the level required for the update. I think Porsche purposely writes Tech Bulletins in a confusing manner to deter DIY. LOL - Porsche does not write them for DIY period. These are dealer/OPC only documents. But I guess now we know why so many dealership shops have trouble with what should simple stuff. :rolleyes:
  21. Loren
    Try 5216 or 5214
  22. Loren
    2. Yes, TSB 7/04 9110 PCM2.1 & BOSE Amplifier Spare Parts Requirements -- Jul 5, 2005 3. Check the same TSB for VIN and hardware levels.
