    Many times the servo is not bad but the foam from the flaps has deteriorated and jammed their movement. I would check that first then rest the codes and test before actually replacing any servos.

    Possible stuck injector(s). Check your fuel pressure and for misfires.

    What is your goal? More horsepower? Better sound? You are not going to get much more horsepower out of a normally aspirated Porsche. Maybe 30 BHP with all those options. That's a lot of money for very little that you will feel. For sound nothing beats or matches the Porsche PSE system to my ears. I would rather listen to a good PSE than the radio.

    A chirp is commonly a loose spark plug or an overtightened spark plug that is now cracked. If you have a scanner it should tell you which cylinder is miss-firing.

    I don't recall Boxsters have heat shields. The engine is a Boxster faces 180 degrees from that in a Carrera so the exhaust does not pass by the cylinder head. Here is a diagram of the 996 layout with the heat shields marked by the arrow.

    Has the car been in an accident? You have two short circuits on the starter relay - check fuses and inspect the relays for damage Also, check to see that the MAF is plugged in and not damaged.

    It might be helpful if you have a photo showing the fault code numbers. Thanks!

    Base brake discs: front - 298 mm rear - 292 mm S brake discs: front - 318 mm rear - 299 mm While the S calipers might fit the pads would hang over the edges of the disc rotors. So I doubt they are S calipers.

    All US/Canada cars were 315Mhz.

    Try re-training the windows. Hold the button down until the window goes down all the way - then do the same for the up motion. Do this for each window.

    The 2002 Carrera wiring diagrams are in a collection that is about 33 pages. Contributing or Subscribing Members here can get single diagrams as needed.

    Yes, the Durametric software should be able to do that also.

    Rotors are non-turnable for about the last 20 years. Has this car been sitting outside - that is a lot of heavy rust. The suspension bushings are likely dry and also cracked. I would replace them as you don't want any surprise failures. Suspension heights and distances have been covered here before - please try and search for them.

    You will likely need a Porsche tool to do that easily. It is a 5 minute job with the old PST2 or any of the newer PIWIS testers. I am not sure about some of the cloned versions as some have many missing functions. The most a shop should charge you is one hour.
