  1. Sound absorber - so if you want to be able have a conversation while you drive I would leave it in place.
  2. Lost Radio Codes DO NOT START A NEW TOPIC FOR A LOST RADIO CODE. DO NOT EMAIL ADMINS. Please read the Lost Radio Code FAQ FIRST before posting - then post in the one thread.
  3. Porsche dropped that part in 2008 so it might be best to find one at a salvage yard. Sorry.
  4. Could be a bad MAF (or wrong MAF) or a bad connection. Check the wiring and pin connections also.
  5. Are you sure Durametric does not show any pending fault codes? Have you had any water intrusion? Wet carpets? etc.
  6. WHT 000 324 hexagon head bolt (combi) 6X28 $1.75 each (US MSRP) - 11 required WHT 000 322 hexagon head bolt (combi) M6X12 $1.70 each (US MSRP) - 2 required WHT 000 321 hexagon head bolt (combi) M6X40 $1.70 each (US MSRP) - 3 required
  7. Here are your troubleshooting guide(s)... P1818.pdf P1823.pdf
  8. Many times the servo is not bad but the foam from the flaps has deteriorated and jammed their movement. I would check that first then rest the codes and test before actually replacing any servos.
  9. Possible stuck injector(s). Check your fuel pressure and for misfires.
  10. Try 9641
  11. What is your goal? More horsepower? Better sound? You are not going to get much more horsepower out of a normally aspirated Porsche. Maybe 30 BHP with all those options. That's a lot of money for very little that you will feel. For sound nothing beats or matches the Porsche PSE system to my ears. I would rather listen to a good PSE than the radio.
  12. A chirp is commonly a loose spark plug or an overtightened spark plug that is now cracked. If you have a scanner it should tell you which cylinder is miss-firing.
  13. I don't recall Boxsters have heat shields. The engine is a Boxster faces 180 degrees from that in a Carrera so the exhaust does not pass by the cylinder head. Here is a diagram of the 996 layout with the heat shields marked by the arrow.
  14. Has the car been in an accident? You have two short circuits on the starter relay - check fuses and inspect the relays for damage Also, check to see that the MAF is plugged in and not damaged.
