Hi Guys,

I've looked at many 997 GT3's and I have been unable to locate the suspenion compression angle sensors on the car.

997 Carrera's and Turbo's have a linkage and rotational sensor on the left suspension, Front and Rear, connected to the "coffin arm". GT3's do not.

So how does the GT3 measure the heights of the Front and Rear?

There are certainly height values to be read when using a PIWIS. Just can't figure out how they get the values from.

Anybody able to shed some light?

Aren't they for the BiXenon level adjusters?

Hi Loren, it seems like I've got the same info as you. Interestingly, the PET seems to be wrong. I have checked this on my PET too, and it shows even a part number with the VIN Filter on. Unfortunately, there is no sensor on 5 of the GT3/GT3RS I've seen in the last 3 months. Because of this misalignment of information, it has prompted me to post here to seek the answer.

I've not been able to sight this sensor on any 997 GT3, but they are plainly obvious on Turbos and Carreras.
