Nothing more expensive than a cheap Porsche! Kidding aside, if you get it sorted out, they are great vehicles. I have a 2013 that's been my wife's daily driver for over 8 years and 160K miles. It now has 195K and I've just run into my first difficult problem--driveshaft center bearing has failed and I can't find the exact same part to replace it and I don't know if other CD/Toureg/Audi driveshafts will work. If all that emissions stuff continues to plague you and you live in a non-inspection state, I can highly recommend the Tunezilla tune and Darkside Developments DPF/SCR/EGR delete kit--it will run like a Porsche again and you can say goodbye to DEF.

Upon closer inspection, the bearing is shot, so the entire rear driveshaft needs to be replaced. My current driveshaft has part number 7P0.521.102.P stamped on it. So far I have been unable to find anything on the interwebs with that exact part number (I have found F, G, J, K, L, N, Q, and T, but no P). The Porsche dealer says it is part number 958 521 102 A--there are none available and might become available in Q1-2027!!! Does anybody know what the last letter on this part number signifies? How important is it to have the exact letter? If a substitute is possible, should I go for a letter before or after "P"?

2013 Cayenne Diesel 195K miles Has anybody tried this part to repair a failing drive shaft center support? Pelican Parts Search: drive shaft center support Any other options out there? DriveShaftCenter.MOV

What year is your car? I have wiring diagrams for 84-89. Have you checked your turn signal/headlight dimmer stalk switch-very common for this to cause headlight issues.

2003 986 Boxter Battery - Alarm - Frunk
scanner-1 replied to Steve-O-Utah's topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
Congratulations on having a very rare car—the 1993 Boxster, haha! Don’t tell anyone, but some people have relocated the emergency frunk release to the tow hook screw in point in the front bumper. -
Once engaged, it works at all speeds unless the vehicle comes to a complete stop--in that case, you will have to hit resume or the accelerator pedal. I don't know what that icon is, but looks like it might be some form of lane keeping assist?
-
In a 2011 (958) it's called Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC).
-
It works as you might expect—open door, turn key, close door to set. The real trick is (and maybe this is just mine) when you open the door, there is not enough time delay to get the key in and disarm the alarm, so I always set off the alarm when getting back in!

I have that alarm on my ‘86 Targa.

That definitely sounds like symptoms of a MAP (or MAF) sensor issue. My 2011 CTT will on occasion behave like you describe and it is easily remedied by removing the sensor and spraying it with MAF sensor cleaner. I'm guessing this happens about every 20,000 miles or so on mine with 100k+ miles. I bought a new sensor just in case, but it just rides along in the glove compartment waiting for the day when the cleaner stops working. If I let mine go long enough, it will eventually throw a "P1637 Pressure sensor ahead of throttle valve" code. Pretty sure your engine has at least one, check this part #: 94860618000,

Diagrams are from my Bentley manual covering 1997-2004 Boxsters. Note: these diagrams are for 2001, but there are no later years in this manual (maybe 2001-2004 are all the same?)

Update for anybody still wondering: I swapped my new Shrader equipped wheels on to my wife's 2013 Cayenne Diesel and had the exact same issue (front wheels not identified). I went to TPMSdirect and bought 4 HUF IntelliSens for $33 a piece. They arrived in BHsens IntelliSens boxes with a sticker saying they were programmed for a 2011 Cayenne Turbo. Same indy installed and 5 minutes later they were working fine. I'm pretty sure that HUF is the OE for Porsche and BHsens is their joint venture with a Chinese company. The sensors look, smell, taste and act like the genuine part. Bottom line: DO NOT buy Shrader 29138 for your 958 Cayenne.

So it's a few years later, a new set of wheels, tires, TPMS, and unfortunately an update on what TPMS does NOT work on my 2011 CTT: My old UVS2000 HUF Intellisens (installed 2017) were still working fine when I had my indy install a new set of Porsche wheels and Pirelli tires (went from 20" to 21"). I was unable to find the same sensors (discontinued) and my search led me to some very reasonably priced Shrader 29138 (Pre-programmed for Porsche) sensors. After install, the Porsche relearn procedure would only pick up the two rear sensors. After multiple tries and a call to Shrader tech support, I swapped front wheels to rear and rear to front. Again only the rear two sensors were picked up by the TPMS system. My current theory is that the Shrader TPMS outputs at a slightly lower signal strength and is unable to reach the TPMS antenna located on the rear axle. Any other thoughts or experience with these particular sensors is appreciated.

Just to be clear, there are two "resets" available under the Reset PCM menu: 1.Factory Settings 2.Vehicle Handover Vehicle Handover is the one you want.
