  1. I have a 2001 Carrera Cab that has a failed Cabrio Top Motor. I sourced a new one (upgraded version 996-561-933-01) from a Porsche dealer and now face the task of installing it. The motor was bought with the associated upgraded limit microswitch (996-561-165-01), extra mounting studs (997-561-963-00) and a new bracket (996-561-207-01). The latter bracket has a different set of mounting holes and studs from the original one. It also is attached to the hydraulic pump bracket with 3 screws (not supplied, because the original bracket is spot welded to the pump bracket). I will need to cut off the original motor bracket and drill new mounting holes for the new one. I am hoping that the alignment and spacing with the linear drive assembly (black plastic housing) works out correctly. This undocumented situation seems odd to me, since the upgraded motor dictates the new bracket. Why would Porsche not supply a new combined bracket for pump and motor together? Anyone know of the combined brackets part number (assume one exists). Odd also that the parts supplier had no clue of this problem. Of course, once all back together, it will need calibration ... sigh!
  2. When I was discussing this issue with the local Porsche dealer service manager, he looked up the model and SN and suggested 2796. Which ever one works, how do you test this without disconnecting the battery? Is there a menu choice on the radio where you are prompted for the code, when it is fully operational already?
  3. Loren, Looking for the missing radio code for my factory CR-220 on my just purchased 2001 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet. Model# Becker 4362, SN 15031791. Why is it that previous owners can't retain manuals and said codes? It really isn't that hard. Groan! Jim
