    Would that be this connector?

    For 996 Cab (to My99) - 996 555 181 13 A11 Black Leather Lining for left windscreen (top) frame

    A good read... The "Warped" Brake Disc and Other Myths of the Braking System

    Might be a good idea to look for any loose hoses as an intake leak can also cause some hunting. Also, have you had the battery disconnected recently?

    Is the AC on? That will raise the idle about 200-300 RPM. If not, try a bottle of fuel system cleaner (like Techron).

    Do you have a picture you can post?

    Your dealer should do this at no charge. Do you recommend upgrading to 3.0 OS and getting the new Map? For your car you likely need to check the VIN with your dealer. If your car is a true MY03 (not a MY04 build) then your current software version 2 is correct and can not be updated. Your dealer can make one phone call using your VIN to PCNA verify whether your need or can use the update.

    Hmm... the noise might have been the motor trying to return the spoiler to it's down position - so it could be a motor or microswitch problem. I would remove the fuse (D8 - or fourth row down eighth from the left) and not drive over about 60 MPH until it is fixed (JMHO).

    None of the next gen cars (Cayenne, Carrera GT, or 997 ) show a flasher relay in the parts list. Perhaps this is now done electronically in a control module? We'll keep checking...
  12. Loren
    Under the carpet behind the seats. You will need to loose some bolts to lift the panel.

    Have you checked the spoiler fuse? Row D Fuse 5 (that would be 4th row down 5th fuse from the left - 15A). The spoiler relay(s) are behind the rear seats next to the DME. They are relay 3 spoiler extension (1st row 3rd relay from the left) and relay 9 spoiler retraction (2nd row, 3rd relay from the left). Both are p/n 996 615 102 00.

    I found it! It is... 986.331.361.02. The part in the pic does not look like the one on my car. Must be a different year. 986 331 361 03 replaces 986 331 2361 02 For a MY01 you need: 986 331 361 03 Spoiler (2 per car) 999 507 774 40 Pushbutton (2 per car) 999 507 775 40 Pushbutton (2 per car)

    I haven't heard of folks having much luck with fixing the flexible plastic bumper covers - they are not like a fiberglass cover. Here is a diagram with the front bumper mounting pointing (highlighted in purple).

    You could try naval jelly to clean the rust. Then use some anti-seize on the threads and paint the heads - but they will likely rust again in a few years.
  18. Loren
    The horn relay is in position 10. That would be second row from the top 5th from the left. You should also check the fuses (if you haven't already). And, it is not uncommon to just have a horn fail - so it could be a bad horn. There are several threads here on that and suitable replacements.
  19. Loren
    Sorry... I don't understand what is wrong with your front bumper cover. Is it torn up on the underside so the bolts are gone? The GT3R bumper cover should work with minor adjustments (as you would on any aftermarket bumper).
  20. Loren
    I have not seen this TSB yet and it may not exist. If it is a factory recall then they sometimes do not create a TSB. I'll keep my eyes open though... PayPal is one option to donate - on that same page you donate using any major credit card (PayPal still processes it but you don't need a PayPal account).

    Check with Gert and see if he provides new drop links with his GT3 swaybars. If not, you will need to get them from The Racer's Group or someplace similar. I don't think the GT3 bars will work with the stock drop links on any standard Carrera.
  22. Loren
    Haven't quite figured out those new buttons and options? Have a look in our new Forum Features Explained forum.

    986 505 311 06 G2X Lining (front bumper) (prime coated) for MY03- on Boxster S. 985 505 551 01 G2X Cover (around opening) prime coated MY03- on Boxster S. The inside retaining frame is: 986 505 555 02 01C Retaining Frame (satin black) MY03- on Boxster S. The parts list does not show a grill of a Boxster S - it looks open. There are grills on the side opening but only the cover lip on the center opening.

    986 606 125 00 replaced that sensor in April 2000 then it uas updated again to 986 606 125 01. I don't know the Bosch number but someone should be able to cross reference it.
