  1. Try 6472 or 6470
  2. My understanding is that it is the times the fault has triggered since last reset. In the case of the DME - it can reset it's own faults if the preset drive cycles have been met and the error has not occurred again. PST2 and PIWIS report the same.
  3. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...ost&p=42414
  4. You are likely going to need a PST2 or PIWIS to see which microswitch is not closing (or opening) that is causing the fault.
  5. Model year 99 C4's had DME 7.2 but they also had egas. Might be possible...
  6. A special Thank You to both David and Mary for graciously hosting us at your lovely home (in beautiful El Dorado hills). And, for providing the excellent lunch! I think we had an excellent turn out for our first "big" Work On Cars Day. I counted 15 total cars that came and went during the day. Short shifters to bumper cleaning to airbag lights to suspension changes to just a lot of Porsche talk- a good time for all.
  7. An airbag code will only show up on the Durametric software. a PST2 or PIWIS -- not on most generic readers.
  8. Try 0616 or 0614
  9. Check you Owner's Manual. The brake fluid is under the front hood. A low fluid level would trigger a warning light (as would pad wear). Either there is air/water in the brake fluid or something else is wrong.
  10. 1. According to Porsche's book time it should take 7 hours. 2. You will need to break the engine in just like a new engine. 3. I don't know about where you live - but in the US you can not change the odometer unless you file paperwork with your local government as to the true mileage on the car. Unless you never sell the car.
  11. You don't need Autospies - these pics are all on Porsche's website.
  12. Not that I can think of other than the rear wheel will be next to some hot parts (mufflers, heat shields, etc.)
  13. P0446 EVAP Canister Shutoff Valve (Function) – Below Limit – Purge air line blocked – Flow resistance of EVAP canister too high P1128 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 1 – Above Limit/Below Limit P1130 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 2 – Above Limit/Below Limit – Incorrect signal from MAF sensor – Intake air system leaking – Fuel pressure too low – Volume supply of fuel pump too low – Fuel injectors fouled – Exhaust system leaking My bet on P1128 and P1130 is an air leak. Oil filler hose, AOS, or other manifold leak.
  14. It happens occasionally on 996's too.
  15. Since your car is so new and under warranty I suggest you take it in and have the dealer find the root cause. This is not normal.
  16. Since this image has a tag on it - do you have permission to use it?
  17. That is correct - only comes in silver.
  18. Fan speeds and switch on tests are covered here. I can get to the ballast on my car without removing anything - from the bottom.
  19. I split this post off the Lost Radio Code thread because you are not asking for a code. Thank you for the compliment though. There supposedly was a few CDR-23's that were both MOST and wiring capable - but I have not seen one. Since almost all of the CDR-23 are fiber optic (only) I don't think you will have any luck converting it over. There are better 3rd party radio/NAV systems out there.
  20. Still looking for help so I can have some tunes for the weekend! :D Try 9142 or 9140
  21. Porsche headlight removal and bulb replacement is covered in the Owner's Manual. The post above has had the link removed as it was purely commercial. If you are unsure, please re-read the board Guidelines/Rules. "No commercial posting, signatures, or profile statements (including images) are allowed. Please understand "advertisements" will be either edited or deleted, as it's neither "fair" to those who support this site - nor "us", the RennTech.org community."
  22. Probably. You can test it by doing opening both as you describe then going back and doing each one individually and seeing if there still are bubbles.
  23. Thanks Richard! Here are a couple engine shots.
  24. Try 7285 or 8283
