    Well, you you are not planning a lot of track activities you would likely want the M030 sport suspension. Porsche sells a kit that is springs, shocks, and swaybars that are tuned to work together. They will also lower your car about 20 mm front and 10 mm rear. Here is the set at Carnewal.com.
  2. Loren
    Yes, but when you order parts you will be ordering for a MY04 Boxster (986). I'll bet the 10th digit in your VIN is a "4" (for MY04).

    236 - 18" tires 376 - Sport seat backrest shell 663 - Hands free receiver

    What suspension do you have standard or M030 (sport suspension)? Street and occasional track? or track only?
  5. Loren
    IMHO - $800 to $900 is a very good price. Changing suspensions pieces and a 4 wheel alignment it at least a 5 hour job.

    I have sent you a PM...

    Did you put the spoiler correct harness back in?
  8. Loren
    Kim, No they aren't. But they could be. This only adds about 3 inches so it is not like jacking the car up a foot or two. If you really want level then just put them under all four tires.
  9. Loren
    ar38070 is correct, to bleed the ABS system you need to open the valves with a PST2 or PIWIS tester.
  10. Loren
    0 (zero) HP for the PSE by itself. The cut-out is for some European countries that have noise limits (in town) at those speeds. My understanding is primarily Switzerland. BTW... if you don't even hook up the valving (just put the mufflers on) then the valves are always open (loud).

    Your 997 will have PCM 2.1. The PCM 2.0 manual may be close and is all we have seen at this point in time.

    Perhaps all the "pre-ordered" dealers cars all have sunroofs. That is fairly common as dealers sell the most popular optioned cars from their lots. I do not see any memos that sunroof delete can not be ordered on a factory order car.
  14. Loren
    Yes, there is even a PCM2 DIY here in the DIY section. It is for a Carrera but a Boxster is pretty much the same.
  15. Loren
    Well, yes and no. That's why you need to pay the money to see the whole report (if you are really interested in a car). You could also get a report of a major accident damage, flood damage, or even (in some states) a vehicle that was sold for salvage.
  16. Loren
    Just a couple of questions: 1. Are you sure that P1123 is the only code. Does your scan tool show all codes or just the first one? 2. You said the idle is steady and does not waiver - right?
  17. Loren
    996 362 020 02 was actually the part number for the 996 C4S emergency wheel/tire as of MY04. Most likely the newest, lightest and smallest.

    Not that I have seen published. I guess you could read a new one and then compare but when one of these goes bad it usually very obvious - with a huge difference in readings.
  20. Loren
    They don't unless you have numerous stage 1 and stage 2 over-revs recorded in your DME and the car shows other signs of abuse (i.e burnt clutch, etc.).
  21. Loren
    If you follow the break-in in the owners manual you will never have a problem with a warranty claim.
  22. Loren
    1 & 2 - Have a look at TSB 2/00 6102 Noises In The Hardtop Area (dated 9-8-00). It has 7 pages of hardtop noise and lubrication fixes.
  23. Loren
    If it were my car the first thing I would do is drain the transmission oil and look for metal. Since your car is likely still under warranty - you might want to take it to the dealer for a transmission check.
  24. Loren
    I'm pretty sure they won't come with it. Oops.. the TT doesn't use the plastic screws the GT3 and Carrera use, it uses U-clamps. If they don't come with it then order 999 507 751 02 U-clamps.
