    Porsche recommends that you change them - that is a safe recommendation. I also know folks that change their pads every couple of weeks for track events and they don't change them unless they see wear. So, I guess if you are going to look at the hardware every few months then you can watch for wear. If you want to drive the car and not think about it until the pads are worn out then it might be wise to put in new parts (IMHO of course).

    6 speed or Tip?

    It is basically the same as a 996. Have a look at the 3rd Radiator DIY here for basic instructions.

    CGT tires?

    Loren replied to ben, lj's topic in 980 Carrera GT

    Ben, Have a look at TSB 1/04 4440 Overview of Summer Tires & Wheels (dated 5-25-04) in the Carrera GT TSB section. It lists: 265/35 ZR 19 94Y Michelin Pilot Sport N0 (Directional) and 335/30 ZR 20 104 Y Pirelli P-ZERO ROSSO N0 (for specified side only)

    222 - Traction Control 224 - Limited Slip Differential 448 - perhaps 446 - Carrera concave trim center hubs 880 - perhaps 680 - Sound System (for MY99 this meant amp) In MY99 TC and LSD were an option. Always sold together they performed a similar function to PSM.

    You've got a PM

    I would check you power steering fluid level. I would also inspect the sway bar and front suspension mounts to make sure they are tight.

    The fans are controlled in 2 stages (not 3). There is a low setting that is controlled by the DME based on engine temperature. The high setting is also controlled by the DME and the position of the A/C switch. The fans always go on high (on all the time) with the A/C running. Depending on your climate with the A/C off the low speed setting may rarely come on. I live in Northern California and my low speed fans rarely come on. BTW... GT3 Cup Cars do not have fans at all. The motion of the car is enough to keep the engine cool. They do have larger openings in the bumper though.

    From the "Approved Tires and Wheels" TSB. My guess is that it is a legal liability issue for Porsche (i.e. Ford Explorer/Firestone tires).
  15. Loren
    I'll add them as I get them. I've seen about 6 additional TSBs for 997s but they are released only for Europe at this point. To avoid confusion I am only adding PCNA TSBs. Most (but not all) are the same as RoW/Europe albeit PCNA TSBs are usually about a month after later in release. I do not have a reliable source for RoW/Europe TSBs at this time. If I buy them somewhere in Europe and have them shipped here then they likely arrive at the same time as the PCNA version (at three times the cost).

    I am going to close this since it going well off-topic.

    Paul, Email it too me -- chances are it's just too big. Contributing Members are allowed large uploads - up to 1 MB per post. BTW... this is legal to re-distribute -- right?
  19. Loren
    PCM 1 is not TrafficPro or Becker DTM -- PCM 1 is PCM 1 as custom built for Porsche. Have a look at the post here. Perhaps they can give you a contact in Europe for the CDs.
  20. Loren
    A. Yes. B. No. If you don't hook up the vacuum and electronics stuff the exhaust valves are always open (loud). C. I will send you a PM with it attached. D. Of course they don't recommend the no hoses way - they don't get 10 hours of labor if you do it that way.
  21. Loren
    You are a Contributing Member so have a look at TSB 6/04 4440 Summer Tire and Wheel Summary (dated 08-10-04). The TSB is 11 pages of approved tires, wheels and spacers.
  22. Loren
    I have an install procedure for PCM 2.1 (MY05 only) but it does not mention satellite install. They send out TSBs monthly so you never know it could be in the next batch.
  23. Loren
    Was it ordered with SAT radio? If so... From a PCNA memo to dealers August 3, 2004
  24. Loren
    Rob, Can you look on your invoice and see what the part number for the bolts they used last year and part numbers for this year?
  25. Loren
    Please start by looking at the order guide for the model year you are interested in. You can download the order guides from the link at the top left "MY04/MY05 Order Guides". If you find a code not in the order guide then ask here and someone will look it up.
