Hi

I'm looking for a guide on how to set up the cables on a 996RS gear linkage

Any help or links very apreciated

Posted
Other than the shift knob there is no difference in the (in car) linkage).

Thanks - so do you know where I can find an adjustment guide ?

As long as you have the standard (not short shifter) - there is a tool that holds the gearshift in the proper position and you just drop the cables into the clamps and lock them.

Most Porsche shops have the alignment tool - and I think you can buy it too.

I removed the green plastic 'thing' from the lever assembly as it was causing additional friction to the movement. What purpose does this green thing actually do?

The best explanation Tool Pants and I have been able to come up with is that it is supposed keep loose items from falling in there and jamming the cables.

Sounds reasonable......just :)

Removed it's such a sweet and smooth movement, requires very little effort.
