The stock two-tone horn is on it's own 25A circuit so you could always bump the fuse up a little.

Use a charger that works through the lighter and that will likely have enough power to open the front trunk. Later model cars have a similar jumper point on the fuse panel (in the drivers footwell). If all else fails you can use the emergency manual release behind the passenger side headlight. Do a search here if you have trouble finding the emergency release cable.

The US and Canada MY2006 Boxster order guides are not out yet.
There is a sales bulletin (from May 2005) that says TPMS will be available on MY2006 997 (option 482) but does not mention 987.

I think the issue is cross-threading.

Here is a link to a small really easy to use FREE program.1.4 MB off the digital camera.. I'm just not enough of a computer wiz to know how to reduce the file size before attaching it.Just go to Image - Image Resize/Resample then set the image size to something like 800 x 600 and set the DPI to 72. Then Save As and you are done.

Most likely, certainly worth a try. The TSB is for "BOSE amplifier - Sporadic sound failure in vehicles with PCM2 (I No. 8DV, 8DQ) and BOSE sound package (I No. 9VL". It involves a software update to the BOSE amplifier. In some cases I've heard they replaced the CDR-23 also.

Not according to the TSB for the Aerokit Cup or Aerokit II.
C4S, GT2, GT3, TT all get two struts but regular C2 and C4 do not... go figure
I have a factory installed Aerokit on my MY99 car and one strut has held just fine.

How are you guys finding these?
I did a google search for this Kindel site - and found it - but it is down - and all of the other sites out there just point to his site.
So far I have been able to find very few of mine.

Any help or direction that you guys can provide would be great.
Seems Porsche should have a database with a search engine on their site for this need.
Thanks,

There is a (non-printable) list in the Porsche parts catalog -- by model - by year.
It usually has 99.5% of them.
If you want help on these then I will need to know exact model, year and US/Canada car or RoW car.

No, not sealed. Porsche does not supply internal parts for either the 5 speed or 6 speed Boxster/Carrera transmissions. Only limited parts are available for the GT3 transmission (mainly gear sets). Porsche claims that it is cheaper and better for the customer to get a rebuilt (exchange) transmission from their vendor.Not repairable? Is it a sealed tranny or something like that? I've just never heard of such a thing so I'm wondering what would make it unrepairable. That would be really frustrating. Usually if you have one gear out, you replace the gear and any other little thing in there that may have been damaged by a piece of flying metal and go about your business. -
1. Remove the door panel to gain access to the holding clip.
2. Press out clip with a plastic spatula.
3. Pull off door seal on the outside.
4. Carefully pull the seal out of the clips along the door contour.
First position door seal on the outside at the top edge of the door and push it on.
Rest of the installation is the reverse of above.

All the rest of those parts on the that list ("Brake Pads for Racing Circuit Use") are Porsche Motorsports part numbers. Sorry...Hi, I'm looking for the brake pads sensor jumper plugs referenced in an 03/03 TSB for the GT3:http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?a...ownloadv&id=604
The part number is 964 612 026 70 (jumper plug)
I called two different dealerships and they say they can't order that part.
I also called Porsche Motorsports and they reminded me they don't order parts for lowly street cars. :)
So I'm wondering where can I find this part???
Thanks!

I guess so... thew parts list does not show the felt covers.

Porsche dealers usually warranty all of their shop work. Show them the documentation on the previous fix.
-
Then I would suggest you take it your dealer for a software upgrade (that only they can do).

The MAF is on the round tube that goes to the throttle body. The connection comes off by squeezing the two tabs on the connector while pulling. Some folks have been able to loosen everything in the car and lift the top half enough to get the old filter out and the new filter in. I personally like to take the whole thing out and clean it out before putting a clean filter in.

How to replace the battery ??

Yes, the emergency pull cord for the front hood is behind the right front wheel well. Most shops and dealers know how to get to it.
The fuel lid will not open for the same reason - it is electric. The fuel door is locked (and alarmed) when your car is locked.
