    The Aerokit Cup rear wing has two sets of screws. Item 16 (900 249 034 02) holds the adjustment plates on the side of the fixed portion of the wing. Item 18 (900 249 041 00) hold the moveable wing in the adjustment plates. Always use Locite (or some other thread sealer) on all the wing screws or they will vibrate out.

    Porsche does not recommend X74 on cars before MY02 when they added stiffening to the chassis.

    As of the July 9, 2004 TSB no 15W-50 oil approved. Only the following weights are approved and not in all brands: 0W-40 5W-40 5W-50

    The switch for cruise control is on the clutch pedal. In non-egas (MY99 C2 only) there is a seperate control box for cruise control. On MY99 C4 and all later 996's (egas) the control is in the DME (DME 7.2).

    Harry, The shocks don't make a sport suspension - the springs do. You need to find the color bands on the springs. There will be three color bands - the first two are spring type and last one is tolerance for the spring plate. They will likely be brown and white (standard springs) with a tolerance color of green or white. So your colors may be: brown/white/white. Tell me the spring band colors and I can tell you what they are.

    I think all steering wheels are leather covered on 996's. The second one is plain (no aluminum). The leather vs. leatherette is a matter of taste and upkeep/care. If you have a lot of leather in the car (i.e. large or small leather package) then you might want to stick with leather. Here is a pic of mine in leather.

    I believe the "K" means special order. You might try Gert at Carnewal.com since these only show on the RoW parts list.

    We have added 8 new skins to the RennTech.org. Now you can take you pick: Refault Blue (default), Ashes to Ashen (Black), Bloody Knows (Red), Bubblegum Shoe (Pink), Olive You (Green), Orange You Glad (Orange), Plum It (Purple) or Tanned Hide (Beige). Just choose your favorite skin with the chooser at the bottom left of any page. A cookie keeps your setting. (Opps... should be working now.)

    Were the new clamps just generic ones, or specific Porsche ones? I doubt you can get the cat clamping sleeves anywhere but Porsche. My parts list shows them at about $30 each (996 111 220 01).

    Just click on Donate to RennTech.org here or at the top of any page and follow the instructions.

    Just follow the 996 DIY here. It is the same process.

    Brown/White is ground on the left side and Brown/Blue is ground on the right side.

    All of those codes are consistent with no secondary air injection - so that is where I would start. Check the fuse, relay, and then start checking the wiring at the pump and vacuum fittings.

    The recall was for C4's only. They have a much different gas tank because of the 4WD. Your problem sounds like a sticky float/sender. I would try some Techron or other fuel system cleaner first. If you live in a cold climate you could have moisture (water) in the tank so a gas dryer might be appropriate also.

    The 3 liter engine has a lot fixes from the early 2.7's. My MY76 911S needed to have new chain tensionors, chain rails, 11 blade fan, turbo oil cooler and several head studs replaced before it it was strong and reliable. The 3 liter engines had all of those problems solved plus more HP.

    My battery was 5 years 3 months and 9 days old. Car is driven weekly but not daily. 1- Then vent on the car extra long and the Autozone battery vent tube and connector add another 8-10 inches. I had plenty of tubing even after cutting off the old connector. 2 - YMMV, I tend to look at the CCA, size/fit, and warranty.

    We have added Live Chat to the site! Now you can have a "live" chat with someone else on the board. You can use a public room (Lobby) or create a private room for your chat. It can be accessed by clicking in the Live Chat at the top right of any page. We will give this a try for a while and see if everyone likes it and uses it. If it seems useful we'll keep it -- if not then we will drop the service. Enjoy! :D

    There is a 15 page TSB for installing the CDC4 on a Cayenne. There are two possible kits depending on your cars original options. Again depending on your original options there are 8 possible installation scenarios. Four involve routing a wire from the rear of the car to the the dash and four that don't. The TSB says 4.2 hours or 2.5 hours again depending on the options.

    Have a look at the thread here.

    Depending on your model and DME version - most are the same. The one listed is for DME 5.2 and later DME revisions added more codes. I wanted to get the later manuals until Porsche raised the prices by more than 4X :eek:

    Have your dealer perform the fixes in TSB 5/01 6028 Noises from the New Style Sunroof Frame (dated 10-5-2001).
