    Hard to say - 45,000 miles seems a little early for all 4 O2 sensors. A modified DME program could cause issues too. You should likely plot the O2 sensor voltage curves and compare it against a well running 993TT.

    Oil usage

    Loren replied to allffy's topic in 993, 993 TT Series

    Porsche says 1 quart every 600 miles is "acceptable". I think it all comes down to what is acceptable to you. If it were my car and it used more than 1 quart every 1000 miles and there was exhaust smoke - I think I would look for causes and fix the problem.

    Have you done a search here? I think not - there are lots of posts here on engine swaps and pluses and minuses of different options. Try searching the Boxster section for "engine swap".

P0236 Turbocharger Boost Sensor Circuit “A” - Range / Performance Waste Gate Frequency Valve faulty Interruption - Interruption in wiring - Waste gate frequency valve (coil) interruption below lower limit - short to ground above upper limit - short to B+ Repair the harness or replace the valve.

    Check the resistance to ground on the left bulb socket - compare it to the right bulb socket. Chances are there is a short to ground somewhere.

    Any smoke? Could be worn valve guides.
  7. Loren
    A cracked head or blown head gasket can be replaced. If you have a porous block then the engine needs to be replaced (exchanged).

    The switch is in the hood latch release.

    hi Loren, thanks for the answer. i just got the scanner from autozone. it now gives me P0507 idle control system rpm high, P1128 manufacturer control fuel air metering, and P1130 manufacturer control fuel air metering. The original code P0430(bank 2) is not showing at this time. now i am wondering if the bad cat. or oxygen sensor had triggered bad fuel/air mix which leads to high rpm (1200-1300) at idle or if i am in deep trouble. any thoughts?? P0507 Idle Air Control at Stop – Above Limit Idle speed too high. – Throttle valve is sticking – Leaks in intake air system P1128 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 1 – Above Limit P1130 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 2 – Above 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

    If you CEL is on steady it is safe to drive the car. If the CEL is flashing then it should not be driven.

    996.512.988.00 Spoiler -- US MSRP $292.07 I am sure Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) can do much better on price.

    :welcome: You need : 996.613.155.00 A05 Thanks Loren. Great forum btw :D Sorry, is there something i have not understood ? Because in the first post, i read : "The switch is part number 996.613.155.00 A02 for a switch installed on the left side of the dash " Thanks. The finish on the early cars switches was glossy - later cars had switches with a matt (flat) finish. You need to get the one that matches the other switches ion your car.

    That is what I meant when I told you 640 xxxx is in two model ranges - 914-6 and 1980 911SC. I suspect it is a 914-6 engine (which is fine).
  23. Loren
    The only place in the list (that I see) a 640 xxxx serial number used is on a 1970 1971 914-6 and 1980 911SC. So then it could be 2.0 liter or a 3.0 liter based on that. Does it have carbs or fuel injection?
  24. Loren
    Try 4828 or 4826
