    How is the coolant level? Any oil floating in the coolant?
  2. Loren
    Prior to 0W-40 Mobil 1 the recommended oil by Porsche was 15W-50 Mobil 1. Most of the older Owners Manuals state that.
  3. Loren
    Look in the throttle body for oil. If there is oil in the TB then you likely have a bad AOS.
  4. Loren
    Hmm... I show an MSRP of about $2300 for a cylinder head(and cam cover). Who quoted you $3300?
  5. Loren
    I do not know how they get in there but I know of several instances where they got in under battery and chewed the fuel tank level sender wires. My guess would be that the follow the openings from the left front fender fuel filler to the tank.
  6. Loren
    Sorry, but the bottom of your car is basically open and there are lots of wires to chew on. I know of ABS, brake wear wires and fuel tank sensing unit wires all being chewed by rodents.
  7. Loren
    Remember the head and the cam cover are a matched set - so you will need both.
  8. Loren
    Have you checked for pending fault codes? Could be a bad AOS.
  9. Loren
    Try 0084 or 0082 I tryed those two codes but non of them worked. Can I something wrong or.. P.S it's a car from the U.S Henrik Please read this and follow the instructions... Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  10. Loren
    Model and year of your car please? (your profile says 986 Boxster but you posted in 996 Carrera)
  11. Loren
    I would stick with Oklahoma Foreign or Silver Star Recycling (in California) - LA Dismantlers has had some bad reports.
  12. Loren
    Hmm... missed that. I would certainly check the alignment - both camber and toe.
  13. Loren
    Try 0084 or 0082
  14. Loren
    Not here... you are thinking of Rennlist.
  15. Loren
    How many miles on the rear tires?
  16. Loren
    MY03 has a TSB for some hard shifting but it was in the 1st to 2nd range. The solution was a new Tiptronic controller - you might check with your dealer and see if your car got the new controller.
  17. Loren
    Hence my comment about waiting until it got worse.
  18. Loren
    No, those are for a 3.4 liter cars and should not be used on 3.6 liter cars.
  19. Loren
    This is a top down view so the shaft is at the bottom of this diagram.
  20. Loren
    Did you read the FAQ?
  21. Loren
    Try 4741 or 4739
  22. Loren
    Loren was able to provide the full list based on my VIN but it doesn't itemize WHAT the "I" codes are. Option code 234 is actually I234, not M234. Still trying to learn what this code represents but at least I know exactly what I'm looking for! Be sure to post here if you find out what it is or find a site that has a complete decoder. Most only have a partial list from what I have found so far. The list I gave you comes from Porsche's database (as of August 2008). You need to ask Porsche - because some of the options are not marked (by them).
  23. Loren
    On US cars ALL have an emergency release under the right front wheel well. This has been covered here many many times.
  24. Loren
    Both my Mercedes and Porsche are both 5 MPH fast (when checked against the same GPS).
  25. Loren
    Sorry, I do not know how big a job it is. I think I would not fix it until the leak gets bigger.
