  1. Potential causes for P1119: - Contact resistance. - Heating resistance too high. - Open circuit in heating current circuits. - Open circuit in H02S signal wire. - Short to B+ (output stage cut off). I would check the wiring going to your MAF sensor too.
  2. You need to remove the speaker covers to get at the BOSE mounting screws.
  3. You need to find the source of your leak. If it is external - that is actually good. A bad hose, or radiator, or coolant tank, or cap are cheap compared to coolant in your oil. I would pressure test the coolant system (to locate the leak) and I would change the oil and look for coolant in the oil (not a good sign - but if the oil is clear of coolant then you can be pretty sure that the leak is external).
  4. $247 US plus shipping. http://www.durametric.com/buy.aspx
  5. 996.106.011.54 water pump 996.106.340.54 gasket
  6. If you are replacing a BOSE amp it will be plug n play. If your car did not have an amp you will need the correct fiber optic (MOST) cable(s) and a PIWIS (or PST2) to turn on the feature.
  7. 996.645.333.04 was replaced by 996.645.333.05 which was replaced by 996.645.333.07. So, 996.645.333.07 is the latest version.
  8. Depends on what you want to do on how new a car. Version 24 is the last (latest version) and it was reissued to fix the bug.
  9. The O2 sensors report the problem - but are rarely the cause of the problem - especially when you have other symptoms like smoke. As wvicary said we need your fault codes (all of them).
  10. Not that I am aware of. The only seat option was a thinner seat cushion that helped some drivers. I have suggested (and I am sure many others have too) that Bre-Krause should make seat rails for the standard seats in in the 9x6 series. Currently the only way you can lower the seats ins the Brey-Krause seat rails for aftermarket seats. Some folks find that the delete (lower) center console helps with leg room.
  11. In most cases (that I am aware of) the resonance comes from after market exhausts.
  12. Most likely yes. Especially if you are having any other strange electrical problems. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=493
  13. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=7592
  14. Yes, Litronics (the early Xenon) can be switched. What ever position they are in flip the lever to the other position.
  15. It is not a Porsche special tool. They should be commercially available at tool stores and auto parts stores (that carry tools).
  16. The Retail Price Search feature (for our Contributing Members) has been updated to reflect April 2007 pricing for the US (only). We try and update this on a monthly basis as the price lists come available to us. For April 2007 the price lists support - US: 212,316 parts Canada: 209,209 parts (December 2006)
  17. Serial number looks too short to me but give this a try: 8220
  18. Porsche's recommended tool (commercially available) and how to use it...
  19. 1. Remove convertible-top peg housing (image 1) Unscrew fastening screws 1 from the convertible-top peg housing 2. 2. Unclip the A-pillar trim (image 2) Pull the A-pillar trim inwards along the windscreen frame in the direction of arrow. 3. Remove the A-pillar trim (image 3) Remove the A-pillar trim 3 upwards in the direction of the arrow.
  20. Basically, anywhere it will fit. Most I've seen are on the right side.
  21. The 'Tool Master" Mr. Tool Pants likely knows... He already had a great pin tool collection so I gave him mine.
  22. Your major service is actually due at 90,000 miles. The checklist is here.
