  1. Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
  2. Thanks again. I had a 80,000 km done when I bought the car in March. Where is the air pump located? Does it run at startup? If not, start by checking the fuse. It is a 40A fuse on relay support 2 - which is next to the DME. Sorry, I don't have a picture of the pump location. It is in the left rear under the intercooler upper hose. Perhaps someone with a TT can take a photo.
  3. You can't use your headlights with a TT/GT2 bumper or a MY02 or later GT3 bumper - without changing the front fenders also. The profile changed. You would also need some wiring changes for the new style headlights. Conversely an aerokit cup or RoW GT3 front bumper will be a bolt-on solution.
  4. The air pump runs usually only at startup - for emissions reasons. It may or may not cause a CEL because the pump only runs for a short time. Here is the US it would cause you to fail an emissions test. If you have recently had work done on the car check to see if they accidentally forgot to plug the air pump back in.
  5. 996TT, 09/2001 (MY02?) P0491 Secondary Air Injection System, Bank 1 - Insufficient Flow P0492 Secondary Air Injection System, Bank 2 - Insufficient Flow Possible cause of fault - Electrical fault in power supply or line between relay and secondary air injection pump - Secondary air injection pump relay mechanically faulty - Mechanical fault in electrical secondary air valve - Pneumatic secondary air valve faulty/sluggish - Electrical fault in secondary air injection pump - Mechanical fault in secondary air injection pump or secondary air injection pump blocked - Vacuum system leaking - Air hose to secondary air injection pump slipped off or constricted
  6. P1275 Signal Delay Time for Oxygen Sensor Ageing, Bank 1 – Above/Below Limit P1276 Signal Delay Time for Oxygen Sensor Ageing, Bank 2 – Above/Below Limit Potential causes: – Oxygen sensor ahead of TWC – Leak ahead of TWC or in the area of the oxygen sensor after TWC – Wiring (oxygen sensors exchanged)
  7. The clutch is hydraulic on both cars and is not adjustable. If you are having problems you should check for leaks and have the system bled.
  8. It will come in monthly mailing from Porsche (some dealers get these via Porsche's network nightly). We pay for a subscription so they come Fed Ex once a month. Sometimes Porsche does not deliver on time (surprise - surprise - surprise) and I get 3 months worth of TSBs/Workshop Campaigns at one time. I usually get them posted for our Contributing Members within 24 hours of the time I get them. Unfortunately I have no control over Porsche's delivery.
  9. You can make any of those items fit - for some (facelift parts) the cost will be much higher. It is purely aesthetics (at street speeds) so do what you like.
  10. Model and year of your car please?
  11. Todd Holyoak is the expert on these swaps but I think it would be helpful to know: - which fuel intake did you use - did you go from egas (Boxster engine) to egas (Carrera engine) The only adjustment I know is to program the DME as either a Boxster or Carrera program.
  12. The fuel door does have a lock and it is part of the factory alarm system. Do I have to remove the fender to fix this? That alone could be a nightmare let alone finding the part number for the sliding lock. Im sure I can hear the thing trying to lock when I activate the alarm. Hey Loren, can you confirm the alian lick things are different on each side? I got the tossa who put the handsfree kit in to fix it so I only get One beep now. Had to take it back twice coz he pinched the microphone wire when reconnection an alarm cable he forgot to do! No, you do not remove the fender. Replacing the Gas/Fuel Door Actuator
  13. That must be a new campaign - I don't have it yet.
  14. Correct a CDR-23 is MOST (fiber optic) and will only work in MY03 and newer cars. For the CDR-220 try 1453 or 1451 CDR-23 is linked to the car with a PST2 or PIWIS tester - it does not have a code.
  15. Sorry, (where was my head)... Should be "garbage". Ask them if they can look up the Campaign number - it likely starts with W or A.
  16. yes you are correct , that the cluster supports it, but my quiestion is if my 2005 c2 equipped with the wiring to connect the tpms control unit /? that would be sweet if it does thanks in advance All Carrera's have custom wire harnesses made at the factory. So, if it was not a factory option - chances are the wiring is not there.
  17. Try 8692 or 8690
  18. It is the one motor that moves the spoiler up or down. The electrical works the same either way - so I would look for binding and if there is none that pretty much leaves the motor.
  19. Adjusting Hood Latch Mechanism
  20. Tool Pants, Based on the fact that the OEM Porsche part uses a plastic one instead of a metal one incase it explodes and rubs on the engine case, would it be better to purchase the Porsche OEM part over an aftermarket one? I need to replace mine and I have found several brands ranging from $98.00 cheap - OEM Porsche $315.00 - AC-Delco $545. Is there any to stay away from? Thanks Rick $300 is list price from Porsche - have you tried a quote from Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) - just click the link near the top of any page.
  21. What does it do when you manually actuate it with the switch?
  22. Try 2424 or 2422
  23. Correct a CDR-23 is MOST (fiber optic) and will only work in MY03 and newer cars. For the CDR-220 try 1453 or 1451
  24. Well, the G would have to be an E to be a MY84.
