  1. Hi PTEC, I also belong to the legions of pre-00 Boxster owners with the airbag light problem. Local repair shop cleared it once but it reappeared after only 3 days. They are willing to fix it again, I just don't like the wait period to get into the shop. Appreciate if you could also send me the instructions you have. The instructions to fix the seat belt buckles are in a TSB. Contributing Members here can read ALL of the TSBs... hint hint ;) ;)
  2. Hello PTEC, I have the same problem and I also would like the directions to fix this little problem.......thanks in advanced Aaron The instructions to fix the seat belt buckles are in a TSB. Contributing Members here can read ALL of the TSBs... hint hint ;) ;)
  3. Have you tried cleaning it? Sometimes that works. 996 606 160 01 Idle-speed adjuster (retail - $366.28) It should come with a new gasket. Remove the module from the throttle body by disconnection the electrical connection and then removing the two (5 mm as I recall) screws. Be sure to use some carburetor cleaner (lacquer thinner) to clean the throttle body and mating surfaces - then reinstall. Keep the carb clean off of any painted surfaces as it will take paint off.
  4. Leather or vinyl or plastic or painted? or all of the above? ;)
  5. MSRP on the exchange compressor unit (996 126 011 BX) is $925.72 -- perhaps a little gouging there.
  6. Same as the Carrera. See the DIY here.

  8. No, the Targa switch is only in mat black because the Targa did not come to market until MY02 - when all the switches changed to mat black.
  9. Loren, can you tell me if the seat belt wiring has anything to do with my roll over bar light going on? I was driving along tonight and for some odd reason the light just popped on. Help? Raymond The overturn sensor and overturn light control comes from the convertible top controller and is not related to the seat belts.
  10. Model year of car(s) and model of radio please...
  11. The adjustment procedure is written in your Owners Manual.
  12. Sorry,maybe one of the PCM2 owners can remember because I can't how to do it. I think you let it startup normally then choose PCM from the menu and then serial number is under one of the items on the list.
  13. Can you identify the part from image 1 or image 2? Image 1 Image 2
  14. That is not a good number. Steel brakes: 996 352 949 02 is the number for a TT rear pads (through MY04) 996 351 949 12 are the TT front pads
  15. I don't see any recommendations in the manual. What is the problem with your sunroof? Is it making noises or not moving smoothly?
  16. The control box is used for adding in the Xenon (low beam) and Halogen (high beam) on Litronics when the hign beams are selected. If you just plug the lights in they will work as Xenon low beams and Halogen high beams - period. Automatic leveling is not possible on an after-production Litronics car as the sensors and wiring are not on the car.
  17. The interface to the CDC-4 is optical (fiber optic). Try an FM modulator.
  18. Have a look in the Forum Features Explained Forum here. If you are still having problems let me know and I will try to help.
  19. The Porsche tool is a a T-handle so it will take some force to unlock it. It will snap to unlock and snap to lock. As I recall turn it towards the front of the car to unlock. When you put the Litronics in make sure it snaps locked. You should not be able to move it when pulled on - if not they will come flying out the first time you hit the brakes hard. :eek:
  20. For a MY2000 Boxster option code 413 is the following: Front: 993 362 134 06 7.5" x 18" ET 50 Rear: 993 362 138 01 9" x 18" ET 52 If your wheels do not have these part numbers on them then someone changed them.
  21. Sandy and I went through the aerokit harness this last weekend. Here are his comments:
