    :lol: A Boxster is easiest, a Carrera is easy, and a Turbo is 4-5 hours. So I guess it is all a matter of perspective...
  2. Loren
    Hmm... I think you need to put a PST2 or PIWIS on the car and check out the alarm. No LED after locking would say the car alarm is not armed.
  3. Loren
    Don't you just turn the bolt on the end of the torsion bar? Been a long time since I had a 1974 914 2.0 but that is what I remember. You should also loosen the steering box knuckle and realign it with the lowered front end - so the geometry will be right.
  4. Loren
    The easiest way is to remove the mufflers - only adds 5-10 minutes. Where do you live? Lots of ice, snow and salt?
  5. Loren
    Some of the Bosch will work - and some won't. The fault code points to only that sensor.

    :welcome: P1117 Oxygen Sensor Heating After TWC, Bank 1 – Above Limit Potential causes: – Heating resistance too low – Short to B+ Did you use Porsche O2 sensors - many aftermarket sensors will not work in these cars. If you did use Porsche sensors then - check wiring from DME control module, pin II/7, to disconnection point of oxygen sensor 1 after TWC for short to B+. If so, you have a shorted wiring harness.

    Model and year of your car please? Your profile says 98 Boxster but you posted in the 996TT section - so I have ho idea which car we are talking about.
  8. Loren
    Any OBD II fault codes or pending codes? I would inspect the coil packs too.
  9. Loren
    If you have OBD II software you should be able to see the MAF air flow readings which will tell you if the MAF is working properly. A leaking injector is fairly rare but it can happen.
  10. Loren
    Try 0938 or 0936
  11. Loren
    Sorry, does not come up on any of my Porsche lists. Send me a PM with your full VIN and I will have it looked up.
  12. Loren
    The parts lists show a 997TT alternator (2nd generation) as the current part number for a 996TT. It that what you have been using?
  13. Loren
    Try 1304 or 1302
  14. Loren
    :welcome: It is now on the CAN network (987, 987c, 997 series) - so unless your shift light can operate on CAN you are out of luck. This has been discussed here in more details - do a search if you want more info.
  15. Loren
    Nick is correct - two places in MY01 and newer cars - plus you won't see anything until the stalk ore switch is installed.
  16. Loren
    Try 8703 or 8701
  17. Loren
    I believe that is a 5 digit code - if it is (and you give me the serial number) I'll give it a try.

    Porsche time units are 100 TU = 1 hour. So the estimate is 8.1 hours.
  21. Loren
    Please do a search for P1130 on the forum - this has been covered many many times. It is NOT an O2 sensor - more likely a dirty or bad MAF or intake leak.
  22. Loren
    Your car is a 996TT - different engine different fault diagnosis. P1133 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Lower Load Range, Bank 2 - Below Limit Possible fault cause: ♦ Incorrect signal from MAF sensor ♦ Fuel pressure too high ♦ Fuel injector leaking
  23. Loren
    No, no tool can do that since they are not stored. Durametric, PST2 and PIWIS can graph trends of real time data (while connected).
  24. Loren
    Try 2835 or 2833
