    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.

    Access For Horns?

    Loren replied to skl's topic in 996 GT3

    30 minutes at the most. Detail are in my 3rd Radiator DIY

    I believe that SmartTop (as well as the Bahntech solution) are only for Boxsters. The 996 top control is much more complicated - it does not use a relay but a separate control box.
  6. Loren
    Could be a bad microswitch on one of those. Either ohm out the switches one at a time or get someone with a PST2 to read out which zone is reporting open.
  7. Loren
    Latest update (Sept 27, 2004) now includes 987 and 997. Thanks Scouser! :thumbup:
  8. Loren
    I don't think you could call it common but I know of at least two other cases of faulty (leaking) oil senders.

    No gods here - just people helping people...

    955 701 105 00 G2X Support (prime coated) for ECE large plate 955 701 105 01 G2X Support (prime coated) for smaller RoW plate You will most likely have to order this from Gert (Carnewal.com) or find a US dealer that can get it.
  12. Loren
    Yes, the lower shelf has a different curve in the faceplate since it sits lower in the console curve. Lower Shelf - 996 552 243 01 01C satin black or 996 552 982 01 xxx Shelf (replace xxx with appropriate leather color code) or wood or carbon fiber

    Leave the center console open... any open zone will cause a beep.

    Those specs are for 996 brakes - Here is the same info on the GT3 brakes since they are about the same as TT/GT2: Brake disc thickness, new -- front 34 mm, rear 28 mm Minimum brake disc thickness after machining* -- front 32.6 mm, rear 26.6 mm (* The brake disc must only be reworked symmetrically, i.e. from both sides evenly.) Brake disc wear limit -- front 32.0 mm, rear 26.0 mm Peak-to-valley surface roughness of the brake disc after machining, max. -- 0.006 mm Thickness tolerance of the brake discs, max. -- 0.02 mm Lateral runout of the brake disc, max. -- 0.03 mm Lateral runout of the wheel hub, max. -- 0.03 mm Lateral runout of the brake disc when installed, max. -- 0.06 mm
  15. Loren
    I don't know the original thickness but the wear limits on 996 and GT3 is 0.6 mm.
  16. Loren
    In the SF Bay Area (a good shop) will run you about $800 - $1000 for the install and another $180 - $200 for a four wheel balance. YMMV...
  17. Loren
    1. No, when used with the proper wheel bolts (Porsche sells a kit) they are fully approved by Porsche. 2. A slightly wider track. You may notice a very slight improvement in low speed cornering - 5 mm is not very much.
  18. Loren
    For my 2 cents... I'm not sure of the quality being a problem on the PSE. What I have seen is two or three PSE's delivered in a box that looked like it was run over by a truck. I don't think the shipping packaging done by Porsche is very good. If you compare it to say the Litronics that come double boxed and foam lined. Considering the cost they (or their vendor) really should package them better for shipping. End of :soapbox:

    Have a look at this thread
  20. Loren
    Looks like there are 5 screws on the inside of the glovebox lid and 3 more on each side to remove the inner liner. Then there are 2 screws on the inside of the lock.

    Most of the oil leaks were fixed by the MY2000 builds. Some common locations (besides the RMS) are valve cover gaskets and cam sensors. You need to have a look at where the oil is dripping down at.
  23. Loren
    Most oil leaks can be repaired with the engine in the car. The most common exception being the RMS (Rear Main Seal). When repairing the RMS the transmission is removed and the engine is supported in place. What year and model car?
  24. Loren
    Can you post a picture? Still not sure what part you mean.
  25. Loren
    To my knowledge - not without going to a racing fuel cell.
