    It's better and quicker to drain the coolant system by removing the drain plug on the rear of the engine, while the car is lift up on the front. Refilling can be done with the vacuum machine.
  2. RFM
    You can do it without front bumper removal, just remove the plastic inner wheel well, but not that easy to work on. I'm sure for DIY, remove the bumper and clean at the same time all radiators from dirt.

    Let check the car on fault codes first, looks like a communication problem between switch and electronics, rather than a gearbox problem.
  4. RFM
    Set the car back into the factory condition (without Denison) and go back to the dealer to program the PCM, wait and see.
  5. RFM
    I would start with the AOS as members Maurice and ericinboca suggest.
  6. RFM
    Pull of the switch wiring an make a bridge, if the starter motor will run, it's apparently a faulty switch.
  7. RFM
    The trim and the unit are one part, perhaps you can separate the trim, no idea.

    Open the glove box, there are 2 allen bolts left and right on the cup holder unit BOTTOM side to remove, slide out the cup holder unit.

    Sounds like battery troubles, start the car with jumper cables and let test the battery and the alternator power output to start with.
  10. RFM
    I would check the clutch pedal switch to start with, pull off the wires and make a bridge. It's an easy check and does not take much time.

    The seal on the speedracing site is an old style seal, the new design sits a lot deeper. A special tool and instructions (some precautions to take) are needed for a good result.

    997-2 has only the 2 conventional side radiators with fans, the engine cooling is increased by a higher capacity pump, improved and larger water channels inside the MA101/102 engine, improved airflow to the side radiators, cooling system capacity is between 29 and 31.50 litre depending on vehicle equipment, etc. All these interventions guarantee a sufficient cooling.

    ROW My 99 986 remotes have only 1 button, just the doors. Later MY's have 3 button remotes, doors, rear trunk and front trunk, i think your car use a 2 button 996 remote, there are a lot of on the road. I could be wrong.
  14. RFM
    The third radiator will not lower the temperature in stop and go traffic (lack on fan), 997 2 has even no more.
  15. RFM
    I'm sure if you use a T50 instead of an allen key, to loosen or tighten the drain plug , you will destroy the drain plug for sure.
  16. RFM
    It's not necessary they are self bleeding, just fill up.
  17. RFM
    Euro 986 have only pre cat. sensors, sensor and cat. are integrated in the exhaust tube between headers and rear exhaust. Option: install Euro headers - install Euro exhaust tube and eleminate the cat. by welding a tube in between - install your car pre cat. sensor in the original empty spot of the Euro exhaust tube - eleminate your car post cat. sensors - reprogram DME to EURO NORM 3. No fault codes will appear but you never can pass trough a environment gas test.

    You have to remove the T30 bolts, they are a little tight, that's true.
  19. RFM
    Besides tyres, wheel bearings may also produce a roar noise.
  20. RFM
    MY2003 M96 engines would not be allowed to have tubes and O-rings.
  21. RFM
    Remove the screws of the support, and the support himself (located in front of the filter and under the foam flap), lift with your left hand the trim with the antenna combination a little upwards, pull out and slide the filter element in the direction of the battery to get out of the room, take care not to ruin the GPS and phone wiring's and connectors. Replace the filter element in reverse order.

    Take a look in to member mattjtaylor post.

    Cayenne's have 3 main fuse boxes, i highly recommend buying or download a manual, there are numerous of fuses and relays, you almost need a PDF file. The indicator issue is rather a bad contact bulb/bulb holder - bulb holder/headlight unit or connector.
  24. RFM
    Glad you found it, success.
  25. RFM
    The foam comes off from the airco/heating unit's air mix flap, you can provide some air mix problems in a later stage. There is a topic on this board somewhere (986/996), i cant find it for the moment, well documented with pics etc. solution inclusive.
