  1. The PST2 is used to measure the fluid temperature. The correct temp to check the ATF is 30 to 40 degrees C. A correct level is a slight amount of fluid escaping from plug B when removed - engine idling, car in "P", A/C off, and car on level ground. To add more fluid you have to remove the cap off the charging valve A and connect a filling tube to pump ATF in.
  2. At the top of the page in red Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost
  3. The second stage fans always come on and stay on when the A/C is running.
  4. Sorry, I though you wanted the door seal that goes all the way around the door frame. LOL- picture makes it clear. 996 551 119 04 A03 Lining (Black)(for coupe w/o comfort seats) 996 551 119 05 A03 Lining (Black)(for coupe w comfort seats)
  5. June 27th update: All MY2005 Cayenne order guides have been updated and Cayenne V6 Tiptronic has been added. Turbo S Coupe and Turbo S Cabriolet have also been added today. (Thanks again Viken!) MY2005 Order Guides
  6. I doubt you can order these since they are no longer on the US parts list. Perhaps from Germany though... 996 551 511 03 V01 Front Handle in Silver (LHD cars) 996 551 512 05 V01 Rear Handle in Silver (LHD cars) or (I think these are black only) 996 551 511 07 Front Handle (LHD cars) 996 551 512 07 Rear Handle (LHD cars) Some folks have had success paiting them with Wurth Silver and then several coats of Wurth Clear cloat. You will lose the silkscreen though.
  7. In order to reset the ce light you will need a scan tool or disconnect the battery for 5 minutes. If you do the later then you will need the radio code and also need to reset the clock. If after a reset the light comes on again then you have not solved the problem and likely need to use a scan to readout the "Pcode". From that you should be able to zoom in on potential causes.
  8. If you have access to a hoist or pit and a second set of strong hands it is likely doable. Here is the tool (actually a brace) and how it is used. I would think a well place jack would work well too - except that you have the risk of knocking it when removing the transmission.
  9. 996 537 075 03 Gasket Left Coupe (drivers side) 996 537 076 03 Gasket Right Coupe (passenger side)
  10. In order to use an 11" rear wheel on a narrow body car you will need to get the offset to 63 mm. Some tires will still rub but you are likely safe with the GT3 recommended tires as they are know by the factory to work on narrow body (GT3s) without rubbing. Current recommended tires for the GT3 are: 235/40 Z 18 & 295/30 ZR 18 Michelin Pilot Sport TL N2 (Directional) 235/40 Z 18 & 295/30 ZR 18 Pirelli P-ZERO Rosso N5 (Directional) 235/40 Z 18 Pirelli P-ZERO Corsa N6 (Directional) 295/30 Z 18 Pirelli P-ZERO Corsa N6 (Directional & For Specified Side Only)
  11. You will need the proper tools, hoists and jack supports. The engine MUST be supported when removing the transmission. From the manual: 1. Remove underbody panels (middle and rear). 2. Remove cross member. 3. Support engine with special tool retaining device No. 9624/1 (e.g. engine supporting jack). To do so remove the stabilizer installation and pivot stabilizer forwards. 4. Assemble special tool retaining device No. 9624/1 on the body with the stabilizer fastening screws and adjust pressure screw so that the pressure disc is aligned with the crankcase. 5. Remove drive shaft on transmission side. 6. Separate electrical connection from the reversing light switch. 7. Unclip the hydraulic line for the clutch slave cylinder at the side transmission case cover. 8. Unscrew clutch slave cylinder suspend on side. Do not remove hydraulic line. 9. Remove switch cable from the transmission and pull it off the transmission switch and selector lever. 10. Place transmission jack under the transmission and fasten fixing strap. 11. Remove transmission container. 12. Remove transmission support. Note: The transmission can be lower by a maximum of 25 mm to improve accessibility. 13. Unscrew fastening screws (8) between engine and transmission. 14. Pull transmission to the front and lower.
  12. One radiator in front of each front wheel (2). There is also an A/C condenser in front of each radiator. Exceptions with three are: Tiptronic cars, X51 cars, GT3, and cars like mine that have the third radiator added on. Third radiator (only on some cars)
  13. Most likely road debris caught in the front radiator (warm side). Clean the radiator well (as the manual recommends). Worst case remove the front bumper and do a complete cleaning.
  14. I may get to Laguna Seca Sunday... I have a god-daughter event on Saturday.
  15. You are just changing out the calipers - nothing else. So, if your old sensors and pads are okay then just transfer them. You will need a good pressure brake bleeder (like the Motive) and about 1 liter of brake fluid. Porsche recommends new caliper bolts - but I don't know many folks that do that.
  16. Here are the part numbers: Fronts 996 351 425 11 996 351 426 11 Rears 996 352 421 13 996 352 422 13
  17. Engine in or out of car? I don't know how easy or if it can be done with the engine in the car. The cam covers do not use a gasket they use Drei Bond silicone - Type 1209 and Loctite 5900 to seal the sealing surface on the cylinder head cover. There are 23 bolts that need to be tightened in sequence to 10 ft-lbs. The micro-encapsulated hexagon-head bolt at the oil pressure duct should always be replaced too.
  18. Use a small amount of anti-seize on the wheel bolts threads and wheel hub only. Do not put anti-seize on the wheel bolt washers.
  19. Removing: Lever the locking button A off with a suitable tool or finger. The locking button must be pressed so that the tool can be inserted between the selector lever B and locking button. (The ignition key must be in position 1 before the locking button can be pressed.) 2. Remove compression spring A and pull spring clip B off toward the rear. 3. Pull selector lever up and off. Installing: 1. Assemble the selector knob with spring clip, compression spring and locking button. Fit conical compression spring with the small diameter facing the guide peg.) 2. Press the complete selector knob onto the shift lever until it bottoms. The spring clip must fully engage in the slot on the selector lever. 3. Check function of locking button.
  20. If it's a factory aerokit bumper then the holes will be there. You will need both the spoiler and 11 plastic rivets. 996 505 986 00 Spoiler $76.16 (prices as of Nov 2003) 999 507 427 40 Plastic Rivet $0.19 each
