    Is it supposed to smell burned clutch when I do the following SEPARATELY: 1. Rev my 996 on FIRST GEAR with the Clutch floored OR 2. WHILE THE CAR IS MOVING ON 2ND GEAR, go on 4,000 or so RPMs on second gear THEN SHIFT TO THIRD GEAR. My 996 gives me the burnt clutch smell when I do those and I get mixed responses if it's normal or not. I have a Supra as well and it doesn't give me that smell when I do the same thing. Is this something different on the 996 that you have to treat the clutch differently? The clutch was already replaced twice in this car within 2 years and I don't want to end up doing it the third time. Hopefully I get inputs in here for other Porsche owners. Thank you.

    I have a 2000 Porsche 911 C4. Does anybody know what brand of spark plus is installed? It can be Beru or Bosch. Thanks!
  3. Porsche_911
    What model and year of car do you have? I just want to make sure to buy Bosch as well if we have the same exact 911. Thank you.

    Hmm. Let me double check. I will update this posting tomorrow. It's not a triple square as well. Is it the same wrench for Euro or ROW version 911? Any other suggestions will be appreciated. As far as I know US/Canada and RoW are the same either triple square or allen head. Is there a chance is that my fill plug is the tamper proof type? Do I need to purchase a tamper proof toll like the on in the link below? http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/shopca...l_pg1.htm#item2 Thanks! I did a closer look and now pretty sure that it needs an allen wrench though my metric allen wrench is either too big or too small. Is there a chance that my drain and fill plug is using English not Metric? Thank you!

    A quick update. Loren your the best! Your on the money when you said that it's not the 02 sensor. I got it fixed by replacing my MAF. No more CEL!

    Ive heard pretty good feedbacks for the Durametric software. The "Enthusiast" version is only around $290.00

    +1. Sell your 996 and buy the 997 instead of a facelift.

    This all depends on what you want to achieve first. If performance, then work on your exhaust system right away. If looks, then buy bigger wheels like a 19" Champions.

    Thats a very good idea porschedr as well. They sell those salvaged 996 real cheap. You will have a lot of wiggle room for the make-over project. Possible cheaper than to buy a 997.

    I had a friend who did that and he ended up spending a fortune that he ended up saying, "I should have sold my 996 and bought a 997 for the money I got from my 996 and the money I spent on the facelift.". The best recommendation is to save the money and sell your 996. The combined amount is like buying a 997.

    I corrected my post. It's a TYPO, I forgot to add the "nt" in the word "would". I wouldNT recommend it. I agree with that response.
