    Are you sure that the calipers are mounted correctly, the pistons not stuck and the wheels turns free without resistance? Are the measurements axial and lateral of the disc and the hub within the specifications? If yes try with original parts.
  2. RFM
    You need a special tool to keep the camshafts in place. The shafts are bolted to the head just behind the timing chains, the rest is hold by the cover. It can happen that the timing chain jumps over or that the shaft breaks if you remove the cover without the tool. If you decided to remove the cover without the tool, be sure that the cylinder nearest the timing chain is on his TDC end compression stroke. I have no pics sorry, it's all from the head.

    pk2 I think in your case that both extensions get stuck in their guides, remove the spoiler upper cover and loose the 2 allen bolts a little so that the extensions can be centered by themselves. Try again till the spoiler works fine, fasten the bolts and retry, repeat when necessary.

    Mother The engine number stamped on the crankcase/oil pan admit the characters AT which means AusTausch = Exchange. For example 96/xATxxxxxx.
  5. RFM
    Yes, make a loop with a jumper cable between the + and the - cables when DISCONNECTED from the BATTERY.

    The bellows is a rubber tube which connect the air-oil separator with the crankcase behind cylinder 3 ( on the left rear wheel inside area )
  7. RFM
    I can be wrong but i think that the clutch parts and the fly wheel have not the same measures as the original. You can take a look if all the parts are installed correctly to start with.

    Airbag system can only reset with PIWIS or similar tool, disconnecting the battery give no result.
  9. RFM
    You need a PIWIS tester in ACTUAL VALUES mode for further examination and testing, otherwise it will become a guess.
  10. RFM
    Disconnect the battery ( + cable and - cable as well ), connect the loose + and the loose - cable with a jumper cable ( take care that the cables have no contact with the battery ) for approx. 30 minutes, reconnect the battery and try again.

    As far as i remember is the outer thread size of a tyre valve stem 8.00 x 0.80 mm. Go to a tyre center, they have a special tool to rectify the outer and inner thread.

    rseller Is the car European or is the DME reprogrammed to Euro norm ? It's only a question, no need to answer that. Regards.
  13. RFM
    There is only one connection you have to disconnect, the ambient temp. sensor for the air conditioning, which is located on the bottom side of the black plastic trim under the wipers. The rain sensor connection ( if you got one ) in the inner rear mirror area can stay in place, disconnection is not really needed if you leave the interior trim on the A-pillars and upper cross member in place, while cutting the front windscreen out with a metal string. I don't no which system they have used, but you can always take a look behind the right A-pillar trim.

    The last generation O rings are larger, that's why he needs new PLASTIC tubes.

    The car have got a rear impact, and only the alternator have damage? I should the car inspect more punctual if i was you.

    Frank 948 106 059 05 group of 3 tubes = in stock. 948 106 049 07 big tube = in back order, delivery time in 5 work days ( reference car out of running ). The engine stays in place for ALL the tubes. The problem appears after approx. 5 years or + 100.000 km, amazing that this issue is unknown in Holland.
  17. RFM
    As far as i know, the radio and GPS antenna's are located in the rear roof spoiler.
  18. RFM
    This is a very strange situation all V8 engines have that issue sooner or later, they should now better. Stays the car in a Pon establishment? I let you now tomorrow what's happen with the back order, a normal back order time is 5 work days for Holland if the parts are in stock in Germany. Regards.

    You can program the system as NOT locking, locking IGNITION on and locking at 5 KM/h. Unlocking is always manual.

    You have to shut OFF the aircond. on 996 to test the radiator fans. Flashed warning lamp means coolant level too low. Fill the expansion tank and let the engine idle till the radiators feel hot, in the meanwhile keep an eye on the temperature and the warning light, ones the temp. reach the 95° C the fans will come in. Let the engine cool down and tip up the level. Your site means to change the dryer/receiver which is located near the battery.

    This is all normal, 1 L fuel = 1L water. Ones the engine is warmed up and the mufflers hot, the steam will disappears. The oil pressure looks OK to me.
  22. RFM
    Probably the guide pin protection/anti rattle on the left and right front side of the convertible hood, which go's in the holes in the A-pillars cross member above the front windscreen. Replace both sides ones they have come loose.
  23. RFM
    It could be only what you think if the cooling water in the expansion tank have the same symptom ( oil - water mixture ) and the car have a exceptional cooling water consumption, if not it is only condensation by short driving cycles in cold - humid circumstances. Nothing to worry about, just keep an eye on the cooling water level.
  24. RFM
    I cant respond this questions because of security reasons, you have to contact an OPC for this.
  25. RFM
    Right, the under plate and the small flaps beside. This is also the way to change a bulb in the fog light and to remove the claxons on a Cayenne V6 and S. Turbo's are differend.
