    996.555.557.09.A03 Light cover (in black) -- US MSRP $77.99 You should try Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) for a much better price.

    Try 3680 or 3678

    OBC (On Board Computer) is the correct term. If your outside temp is showing on the tach display then your OBC is "on". To see the other displays you need the 4th steering wheel stalk that switches between the various functions - it goes under the turn signal indicator. A few folks have added a momentary switch on the dash that does the same switches between the various functions. Both mods have been covered here. But check first and see if you have the 4th stalk.

    Or there is the Porsche solution... As I recall these are not too expensive.

    180 F is normal driving temperature (not below) - it will go up a little if you are stopped in traffic.

    Thanks Loren. Sorry for the late reply but I was waiting for an email notification but didn't get one. Is the forum set up for this? In the option button on the right side you select to "subscribe" to a topics or a complete forum. If you later want to turn that off - just go to your My Controls area and change it under "Subscriptions".

    My point is a few drops of oil on the ground does not make it an RMS leak - so isn't the cost irrelevant at this point? There is no way to tell where the oil leak is coming from without looking closer. There are other areas that can leak that are not RMS or IMS. If you don't feel comfortable looking closer or have the tools then find a good Porsche shop that can have a look for you. Where are you located?

    Item 10?

    Call or email them and ask. We send a lot of business their way... but then they have an excellent product.

    Based on the age of the car - I would suspect the airbag light is one of the seat belt buckles. The only tools that can turn off (or diagnose) an airbag light are Durametric Software, a PST2 or PIWIS tester. Be sure to get the airbag code(s) before resetting them.

    My name is Loren - please. Try 4666 or 4664
  13. Loren
    Take a picture of the underside of the car where it is leaking. A spot the size of a quarter could be many things that are not RMS.

    The ballast resister sells for MSRP $86.09 - but I sure Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) can do much better than that. If you know how to solder this is not a hard job. Certainly under 1 hour. If not, then find a more reasonable shop.
  18. Loren
    Well... a PIWIS does support the older cars. A PST2 only supports through MY2004.

    Since this is the best Porsche OBD II tool we have found (short of spending thousands of dollars on a PST2 or PIWIS) I thought it would be good to show folks what comes in the Professional Kit. I assume everyone that buys a Durametric Professional Kit gets what I got... Nice carrying case and what is inside You get the Software CD and short install instructions. 4 Porsche specific OBD II cables (clockwise from the top left): cable for early 993, 964, 944S2, 968, 928 with older round connector, cable for later model 993 with OBD II standard connector, special adapter cable for use on 2002-2008 factory race cars with Motronic 3.1, and the standard OBD II cable for all the 9x6, 9x7, and Cayenne cars. Of course the Enthusiast Package would include only the standard OBD II cable for all the 9x6, 9x7, and Cayenne cars and the Software CD. These folks have really come a long ways in providing a great tool for Porsche shops and enthusiasts (like us :) ) - IMHO

    Well, if it has been sitting for 15 years then I would replace the brake fluid, transmission oil, oil/filter, and tires. And if gas has been sitting in the tank then you likely want to drain it and have the tank professionally cleaned inside. I would also likely change the spark plugs, and adjust the valves. Check the brake discs for signs of rust or corrosion. PM me the VIN and I'll see what I can find on it.
