  1. Try 4677 or 4675
  2. Porsche says (in a TSB)... "If new tires are to be mounted or the tires of one axle are to be replaced, tires of the same make, the same type and with the same specification code must always be used on each of the two axles. If tires are replaced on one axle only, the different tread depth from that on the other axle can cause a noticeable change in the familiar handling. This is especially the case if new tires are mounted on the rear axle. This effect decreases with increasing tire mileage. When replacing a tire on an axle, make sure that the tread depth of the new tire does not differ from that of the other tire by more than 30%. If a tire is damaged and it cannot be determined with absolute certainty that there is no ply damage with all of its consequences -or if the tire was thermally or mechanically overloaded due to a loss of pressure or other prior damage, we recommend replacement of the tire in question for safety reasons."
  3. Eric (bumperplugs.com) is a Contributing Member here - so you can always PM him. I think what he sells is the real deal.
  4. There was a change during your production year - so the part number will depend on your VIN. Check with Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost).
  5. Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  6. For US cars they are plug n' play. If want the Xenon low beam to be added to the high beam when the high beams are on then you will need a control box and wired into each light. That is what came in the "kits" when I added mine. Connecting the wires is fairly easy and most just use taps rather than re-pinning the connector. As RFM said no self-leveling on non-factory installs. I doubt if it is worth all the trouble to install the sensors and the wiring.
  7. Sorry, I don't have any pics. It is very on the transmission - and looks just like a brake bleed screw.
  8. I have not heard of problems with this valve before - but there is always a first.
  9. :welcome: You need : 996.613.155.00 A05
  10. The bleeder is mounted high on the transmission slave cylinder. Unless you have a lift you will need to remove the left rear wheel to get to it.
  11. Try 5202 or 5200
  12. Looks like the sensor for the (factory installed only) Litronics autolevel feature. Should be one on the front and one on rear.
  13. There was a problem with earlier models where the upper strut bearing would creak. The only fix for that was to replace the upper strut bearing (which is usually not sold separately). Try spraying a little soapy water on the upper strut mounts and see if it goes away.
  14. From the Owners Manual... "The spare wheel must be used only over short distances in cases of emergency. After repair or replacement, re-mount the road wheel and tire as soon as possible. Avoid rapid acceleration, hard braking and high cornering speeds to prevent loss of vehicle control. The maximum permitted speed is 50 mph / 80 km/h and must not be exceeded because of altered driving characteristics and for reasons of wear. The tread depth of the spare wheel is subject to the same laws as the original tires. The vehicle must be fitted with only one spare wheel."
  15. Try 2539 or 2537
  16. Try 9196 or 9194
  17. Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  18. MOST started in MY2003.
  19. Try 0643 or 0641
  20. A 4 year battery is waiting to strand you somewhere - soon. IMHO it's time to replace it anyway.
  21. 1. You are likely going to have to take the seat out to see what is wrong. Remember to NOT put the key in the ignition during this process ore you will get an airbag light. 2. 999.571.076.02 Socket wrench for headlamp -- MSRP $11.99 -- or you could use a 5 mm hand driver.
  22. How to change your manual transmission oil
  23. Looks like the real deal to me.
