    Has the brake fluid been changed? How many miles since the last brake job?
  2. Loren
    That is correct - I fixed the typo in my previous post.
  3. Loren
    Next time I am up your way (or you are down here) I'll put the PST2 on it again and see if we can find the cluster setting. Sorry, I didn't find it the first time.
  4. Loren
    Those fault code lists come from the OBD II manual not the shop manual. 99 Tank pressure sensor P0450 P0452 P0453 1/– P0450 Signal implausible – Pressure sensor faulty P0452 Below lower limit – Short circuit to ground P0453 Above upper limit – Short circuit to B+
  5. Loren
    Yes the manual release is behind the left rear tail light. You will need to reach up and behind the wheel liner to fine the cable and pull it.

    I checked the order type and it was set correctly for a Boxster S -- 986320.
  7. Loren
    Hmm... I didn't see that and I looked. Perhaps CharlieG can check his wiring then I will have to have another go at it with the PST2.
  8. Loren
    I didn't see anything in the cluster on CharlieG's car. Do you guys know where in the cluster this is? Is it under Coding?
  9. Loren
    Have a look at TSB 3/00 7059 Noises In The Door/Door Trim Panel Area -- dated 6-30-00.

    ...or bad ignition switch. Wiggle the key in the switch and see if makes any difference.

    Both ABS and PSM lights on... This is the same error you will get if the MAF is unplugged. Are you sure you or a shop didn't accidently leave the MAF unplugged after working on the car? This can also cause ABS and PSM lights to come on as the DME is not sensing the PSM data and combining it with the throttle position and mass air flow readings. If it is the steering angle sensor you will need a PST2 (or PIWIS tester) to set it correctly.
  13. Loren
    ABS and PSM fault codes are in the 4000 and 5000 range. How did you get this code? What tools/scan device?
  14. Loren
  15. Loren
    Yes. No, there is no need to do that. If you don't install the vacuum and electronics then they act as mufflers only - so no vacuum is used. Mine have been that way since 2000. No, it will just burn off from the heat.

    That information is not in a TSB - it is in the service manual. You will also need someone with a PST2 (or PIWIS) to re-calibrate the new top. I have re-calibrated a top once - it took about 2 minutes. I sent you a PM...
  18. Loren
    You can find it here.

    Normal - secondary air pump cutting in to manage emissions.
  21. Loren
    If you haven't changed the fuel filter - I would start with that. A clogged fuel filter can cause all kinds of problems. If it is not that you will want to test the fuel pressure and see if it is the regulator or the sensor.

    Replacement engine price on 997.100.997.02 -- $27294.81 (MSRP as of May 2006) Exchange engine price on 997.100.997.1X -- $9172.95 (MSRP as of May 2006) Looks that way to me...
  23. Loren
    P0453 Tank Pressure Sensor – Above Limit Check wiring from pressure sensor to DME control module for short to B+. Repair wiring or replace sensor.
  24. Loren
    No switch until MY02. The switch is only available in matte black for left side of console or right side of console (LHD or RHD).
  25. Loren
    That will work. I usually just put it on the jacks stand then carefully remove the wheel.
