  1. Hmm... the Boxster manual I looked at is quite old (body pages from 1997). It says that you need to put a PVC seal on the crimped seam of the wheel arch on the fender. That is the only mention of "sealing" in the Boxster manual. On the other hand, my Carrera manual is more up to date (body pages from 2002). The fenders are the same and in the newer Carrera version there is no mention of sealing or any sealer at all. Perhaps Porsche now pre-seals that wheel arch in their factory replacements? The key in a fender replacement (besides good color matching) is the gap dimensions at the hood, front bumper, door, and headlight. All of these need to right before the new fender is tightened down. Porsche (and I assume good body shops) use gages that hold the correct gap while they tighten down the fender. Good luck on your decision.
  2. No, P1128 is: Oxygen Sensing Adaptation Area 2 (Cylinders 1 . 3) - Rich Threshold This means that oxygen sensing at rich threshold is stored in the memory, this means that the fuel/air mixture is too lean. The DME can not compensate for the lean mixture by making the mixture more rich - it is at it's max rich threshold and still the O2 sensor says it's too lean. Since you do not seem to have a P1130 (cylinders 4-6) then that would imply that there is an air or exhaust leak on the 1-3 cylinder side. Could be as simple as the oil filler cap (o-ring) or as bad as the oil separator.
  3. Check your option codes under the front hood. M524 - 433 MHz drive block alarm (Most of RoW) M525 - 315 MHz drive block alarm (US/Canada, Mexico, Japan, Hong Kong)

  7. The mark II does. The mark I GT3 ran 8" fronts and 10" rears.
  8. Yes, that clamp (with bolt) is the only thing that holds them on.
  9. 996 111 108 00 Pipe Cover Clip - retail $11.73 each
  10. Yes, from under the car. You will need to remove the rear most belly pan and the switch is up high on the transmission.
  11. I will need the model year and exact model (C2, C4, C4S) and transmission (6 speed or Tip).
  12. Sometimes a good parts department will know the different pins and connectors - because they have replaced one in their shop. So they have already done the trial and error ordering.
  13. Only Contributing Members here can view TSBs here. As well, they get access to a Contributors Only Forum, they can send attachments with PMs, image storage limits are raised for all Contributing Members, RennTech.org email addresses are available and now a personal Blog. Contributions help defer the cost of running this site and providing this information to you. No one has to contribute but many members do. Without contributions this site would either have to go subscription or cease to exist.

  15. 955 559 038 01 4w9 Cayenne Turbo Logo in satin aluminum
  16. The things that I think would matter would be: The air inlet ducts - C4S or standard later model. The bumper reinforcement on C4S and TT is shorter than the older Carrera version. So it might have to be cut or changed for the shorter one.
  17. We have added the DME 7.8 P-Code listing to the OBD II P-Codes section. This covers: DME 7.8 - Boxster (986), S MY03-04; Carrera (996), 4, 4S MY02-MY04; Turbo (996) MY01-05 OBD II P-Codes
  18. Okay I have a DME 7.8 listing now. :D Give me a few days to get it online here. P0172 - Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 1 – Below Limit. P0175 - Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 2 – Below Limit.
  19. I use Lexol pH Leather Cleaner (reviewed here) and Lexol Leather Conditioner (reviewed here)
