    I doubt you will need WD40 etc. - not much rust in California. If you want to be safe then replace the manifold bolts (900 378 131 00). I think they are about $1.29 each retail. Torque setting are here.

    Like this? This is a protective coating put on the underside of the car by the factory. Doesn't hurt anything - you can take it all off (a lot of work) or leave it as is.

    New cables does not mean that one of them does not have a flaw or a connector that was crimped on the insulation instead of the wire. If they worked before then there is even more reason to suspect one of the new ones.

    The link should work now...

    How much does the dealer sell these for? Anyone know? Jim Usually about $25.

    The 3rd brake light in the rear deck lid should work. If the spoiler light is always on then they did not install the new wiring harness for the aerokit. See the note here.
  7. Loren
    It's a pretty simple circuit. All the sensors are wired in series - which means any break in a wire will cause the light to go on. If you have an ohm meter you should be able to trace it back one wheel at a time until you find the high resistance.

    Yes, looks like a cam cover or Variocam solenoid leak.

    The end play (if not excessive) should not hurt anything. Some folks go back in and adjust the end after a couple of years after things are well worn in. If it doesn't bother you then I would leave it as is - but if you start missing shifts you might want to tighten it up a bit. When we install them at our "Work on cars days" we adjust them so that the shifter is just loose enough to return to center on it's when released.

    You will need to take ALL the hardware off the old one and mount it on the new one. That includes the little clips that hold the trim on the sides.
  17. Loren
    The ABS and PSM share the same speed sensors on each wheel. A PST2 would tell you which sensor is likely triggering the fault - but you might just check and or clean the electrical connection on each wheel sensor. Be sure and do any plugging and unplugging with the ignition off. IMHO - if you are getting new rotors then change the pads. The problem is your old pads have worn to fit the old grooved rotors so they would not be making full contact on a new rotor - as least not until they had worn enough.

    100 Time Units is one hour. So 1 TU is 0.6 minutes, or 36 seconds.
  20. Loren
    You may need to remove the mufflers if you can't maneuver the headers out. The torque for the header nuts is 19 ft-lb for each of the six bolts (per side) and 22 ft-lb for the 3 on the cat side.

    Brake pad sensors

    Loren replied to Street's topic in 996 GT3

    The brake pad sensors are just wires. When they wear through they break the circuit. Most folks just use a tie-wrap to keep them out of the way with racing pads.

    Schematic says "double relay" - relay in position 6 and 7. That would be second row from the top, first 2 relays from the left. Both should have part number 996 615 111 00. I do not know what happens if you pull them. Let us know.
  24. Loren
    Correct those part numbers are for a 6 speed. (It only matters for the rear springs).
  25. Loren
    If your car had the US M030 then they are the same. If your car had the standard suspension then you will need new ones for the rears (996 333 105 03).
