Thank You !!

It looks like an air bag sensor but the air bag sensor doesn't fit either.

Try 5048

I hope this is the right way to do this. I need a radio code for a 2002 boxster CDR 220 Serial # 15004215 Thanks

not sure if its taboo to post other forums here but i found this super useful and was hard to find: The Definitive 986/996 Clutch / Power Steering Coupler - Union - Connector Thread - Rennlist - Porsche Discussion Forums RENNLIST.COM Boxster & Boxster S (986) Forum - The Definitive 986/996 Clutch / Power Steering Coupler - Union - Connector Thread - After fighting issues with connector leaks at the clutch and power steering unions over the past year I have learned a lot. Much is NOT known (or not...

Hey all, should these just slide on to the hardline? I'm having trouble understanding how these fit and hold on to the hardline. Some threads show that there is a black retaining clip - does that come with these part numbers?

Hey Mark I have the same issue with a no crank/no start with the same codes. My CAN Comfort off was a corroded split point under the passenger seat on the B pillar. That fixed my CAN comfort OFF code. I still had my 1826: Steering Angle Sensor Terminal 30 Power Supply which had perfectly power and ground including the 15 (which is ignition on). I also have no codes in the Kessy and all authorization that I can see with the scan tool. My guessings are the steering angle sensor is the issue or the kessy is the issue. I have to say my friend has the same cayenne and I replicated the code 1826: Steering Angle Sensor Terminal 30 Power Supply. And his cayenne is still starting. So the only thing that still is not working is the Kessy. Did you find a solution what it was? I hope Kessy because I am ordering one

Reply to this OLD thread, I have the GIAC K24 Hitachi maf file, Evo stage 4+, runs perfect. About 3 years back I called about the upgrade to the A28 file (like I was promised Back in the day) Was all set to convert but was told they could NOT do that anymore for some emission bull**** reason. Anyway it really pissed me off that even though they have the high HP files from years ago they will not do the promised (FREE) reflash to allow me to use the A28 setup. Anyway thats my story with GIAC my K24/hitachi runs flawless but just wanted more power, imho they should still do the old tunes to the ecu. Sad deal

Maybe if it could soak through the canvas to the inside of the glass but it is a two-space door with the opener in the centre. I will look at the ceiling just in case. Thanks for stopping in

Thank you, Loren. It looks like that shaft is held in place by what looks to be a snap ring that's labeled part 7. So perhaps the shaft will come out with some pressure? I tried prying on it a bit with a pry bar but decided I should wait until I can confirm that there isn't anything else holding it in place. I did see the section in the 101 projects book where they mention removing this shaft but they also remove a nut on the end of the flange before prying that shaft out. I don't see any nut on that diagram either so it looks to me like its just the snap ring holding it together. I think I'll try prying on it with a bit more force and see if I can get it to pop out. I'll report back if I can get it out.

Item 13 is the radial shaft seal. (click the image to enlarge it)

Garage door opener?

I have a 2001 Boxster S with the 6-speed transmission and it's had a small transmission/differential leak that appears to be coming from the driver's side main shaft. This is the shaft that comes out of the trans/diff and has a flange on it that connects to the axel. How do I remove this shaft and get access to the bad seal? I've seen other instructions that include removing a nut or bolt in the middle of the flange but mine does not seem to have either (see pic below.) Thank you!

Freezing cold morning but backing out of my garage I found a perfectly straight stripe of oil down the center of my windshield on the inside. It must have been thin enough to run down from the top all the way to dashboard, and wiping with a rag it smeared like oil or grease. I am thinking hood latch but what could make a drip like that and why now?

My leak was from a headlamp washer hose. Just from trying the washer it drained the whole tank. Being too lazy to remove the front bumper I just cut it and capped the ends. Yours looks like dripping from the tank so maybe the seal where the pump installs.

of course i understand. different people, different problems, different wishes and for sure some strange ideas like you have explained.

No problem, some posts don't get answered for a simple reason: Neither form members nor staff are familiar with the particular subject, like swapping electrical or electronic components from different year or models. While we have seen a lot of unusual things over the years, like trying to transplant a 996 Mezger turbo engine into an early Boxster, I would be the first to say we haven't seen absolutely everything, and for the sake of fidelity and technical accuracy, sometimes we simply do not have a functional answer. 😉

it was not any kind of critic, it was a observation. I see many posts in the past have lots of views, but no answer. Anyway i got answer somewhere else. the seats from 955 should fit as long as they have same features was told me. . I will see if i can get the seat out Thank you for paying attention to my post

Just because no one has responded to your specific question, that does not mean that there is anything amiss with the forum. You may be the first to attempt this kind of swap, so YOU may be the best person to post the answer. 😉

looks like this forum is dead . PITY

Have you checked the wheel speed sensors? It seems to me that I one of these where a wheel sensor was giving intermittent wrong speed readings and the PSM mistook it for slippage and over compensated. Just a thought...

I am getting a similar issue on left hand turns as well in my 2003 C4S with under 39,000 miles. The PSM activates inappropriately causing a very sudden and unexpected feeling that ABS is activating during even mildly spirited driving in my 2003 Carrera 4S that I acquired about a year and half ago. Occurs during left hand corners at mid-corner or just after mid-corner. This makes the car feel as if it’s going to understeer off the road. Occurs for a split second with PSM light coming on and then off for that split second. My foot is never on the brakes when this occurs as I’m usually rolling onto the throttle by midcorner. Doesn’t do it at lower speeds around the city but occurs when driving spiritedly in the canyons (but I should add that I’m not pushing it anywhere near its limit). It’s recently had new shocks, shock bearing plates, and suspension arms and links (all Bilstein and OEM parts) with stock alignment done. Wheels are balanced. Calipers were removed and repainted for cosmetic reasons. Tires are all within five years and appear to have worn evenly. Cold tire pressures 32-33 psi front and 36-37 psi rear. Clutch was changed about 6 months ago due to an unusual wear on the fork and while the shop was in there, IMS Solution was installed. A Porsche independent shop couldn’t reproduce the issue which wasn’t surprising since it never happens on city streets/highway nor has the PSM activation stored any codes. A second (smaller) independent shop says if the first shop couldn't figure it out, he wouldn't be able to. Any thoughts before I start down the rabbit hole of replacing tires and parts (such as the ones mentioned here, Porsche PSM Failure: A Mechanic's Guide To This Common Nightmare)?

Try 5034

need Radio Code for a CDR-220 with serial number X5035237 please.

Yellow connector, airbag related?
