    The dash trim pieces are covered in the DIY section. Search for dash trim. Becker should have what you need as a prewired cable. You might want to check with Becker Australia. Here is a link to a Becker dealer in Australia: SoundLab Group Here is the US information (for comparison).

    :lol: ...or you can download the Order Guides here at RennTech.org. See the link at the top of every page... "MY04 Order Guides"

    222 is Traction Control (only available on MY99 C2's). 234? Are you sure it isn't 224 Limited Slip Differential? TC and LSD were always sold together.
  6. Loren
    Sounds like an exhaust manifold leak to me or a compression leak. Not good... better find a shop that can check it out. I would not drive the car - just to be safe.
  7. Loren
    At this point I'm not sure I remember... last car I did (before the DIY) was a Turbo and I can't remember if it was different or not. The larger one (30 mm) will only fit in one place so that should tell you for sure. Let me know what you find...

    Porsche specs say - 18 MPG city and 26 MPG highway. Sounds like you are right on spec.

    If you look at my 3rd Radiator DIY (Loren's DIY pages link at the top of this page) I cover removing the front bumper. You will see that you likely will need to slightly loose all the front bumper screws... then move the bumper and tighten them down again.

    Please list them here or try the list at: Kindel Option Decoder

    Not to my knowledge - not on the 996. There are however 3 different MAF sensors depending on: C2 or C4 (MY01 and older) or 3.6 liter (beginning in MY02).
  12. Loren
    Unless you damaged one of the oxygen sensors (not likely) then I doubt this is related. Have you had the gas cap or oil cap off recently? ...these are the two most common causes of a CEL.
  13. Loren
    Well, the springs are just little brass clips (as Glenn showed in the first pic). So the problem is likely finding just those pieces or making your own. The plastic hinge pins are very fragile so be careful. If they break you will need replace the whole visor. ...or drill a small hole where the pin was and glue in a metal one (don't ask me how I know that - :lol: )
  14. Loren
    I mean the pins on the headlight assembly and the socket they plug into in the opening. You may need a flashlight to see the socket well inside the opening. I usually give a slight tug to see if any of the wires are loose in the socket too. If they are then they push out and don't make contact when you push the headlight in.

    New front brake thickness is ~28 mm. To remove the rotor you take off the caliper. Then remove the 2 phillips head screws holding the rotor on. See my DIY brake pad section for more detail.
  16. Loren
    Doug, I've seen this happen a couple of times before. Take the light out and double check the pins on both the plug and socket. Make sure none are bent or pushed out of their holders.
  17. Loren
    You've got mail...
  18. Loren
    Do a search for Homelink here... there are a couple of guys working on this. Porsche is (unfortunately) not a Homelink customer.
  19. Loren
    I think you just remove the snap ring and pull the pin out. I think Don (DonCapeCod) has done this himself so you might try an email to him if you are still having problems.
  20. Loren
    I don't see anything more than that in any of the manuals. Give Horst a try at The Becker Board

    Something is on the either the rubber window to body seal or the plastic window guides inside the door. You can try cleaning and lubricating the rubber pieces and if that doesn't help then the door would likely have to be taken apart. Then clean and or replace the internal parts.
  23. Loren
    Could be a rock or pebble caught in the splash shield. That is fairly common.
  24. Loren
    I guess you mean like this? I'll send you details via email. Be very careful not to break the plastic hinge pins on the mirror cover.
  25. Loren
    The muffler pipe does not go into the cat pipe they are joined by the cat sleeve (4). Your kit should have had new sleeves. If not then you will need to loosen the sleeve bolts and spread the sleeves (not the pipes).
