    Your car likely has 996 coil packs because most the engine (and production) in 2005 was the 996. The 997.1 and 996 share many more parts than Porsche would like you to think. The latest part for coil packs for your car is: 997 602 104 02. You will also need the shorter bolts 900 385 025 01 - two per coil pack. I do not know why you can mix them - they should read the same resistance. But then if 3 are cracked how long before the other three crack? The car is 11 years old and if it were my car I would replace them all.

    Try 1323

    Did you check the bulb socket for corrosion and dirt? You get that message when the circuit resistance is too high -- it goes away when the problem is corrected.
  4. Loren
    Please tell us the exact model and year of your car?

    You may well need to change the brake/clutch fluid. If you do be sure to bleed both the brakes and the clutch as they share the same brake fluid circuit. See the DIY in the DIY Tutorials section. It is also possible that your clutch return spring has gone bad. Item 9 below. There should be no grease or oil on the pedal mechanism other than a small amount of white grease on the pivot shaft..

    Sorry, the only exchange part I see for the HVAC system is the compressor. Perhaps a salvage yard?

    Yes, all the V8 engines use the same relay.
  15. Loren
    Always worth a try. Give it time to work though.
  16. Loren
    Try a new relay. Any other wiring problems could take some time to trace down.

    P0230 Fuel Pump Relay 1 Output Stage - Open Circuit/Below Limit/Above Limit Possible cause of fault: - Fuse FE14 faulty - Fuel pump relay faulty - Open circuit - Short circuit to B+ - Short circuit to ground - DME control module faulty P2632 Fuel Pump Relay 1 Output Stage - Open Circuit / Below Limit / Above Limit Possible cause of fault: - Fuse FE13 faulty - Fuel pump primary relay faulty - Open circuit - Short circuit to B+ - Short circuit to ground - Vehicle electrical system control module faulty - DME control module faulty
  19. Loren
    Yes, I took that from my Porsche 7.2 OBD II manual. Fuel trims should looked at. Since this is a bank 1 issue compare the readings to bank 2.
  20. Loren
    P1126 Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Lower Load Range, Bank 1 – Above Limit, or Below Limit This means that the fuel mixture is too rich and the DME software can not correct for it. This is not an O2 sensor problem. Possible causes are: – Incorrect signal from MAF sensor – Fuel pressure too high – Fuel injector fouled
  21. Loren
    Yes, the correct part number. You might want to check with your local dealer also as I see an MSRP of $21.56.
  22. Loren
    Well, if you can still find the switch that will likely fix it - but that switch will wear out again. If you replace the whole lock/switch assembly with the 2004 (and newer version) you won't likely ever need worry about it again. There are DIY instruction for both types in the 996 and 986 DIY Tutorials.
  23. Loren
    P0130 Oxygen sensor in front of catalytic converter, bank 1 – signal implausible Possible cause of fault Leaking bolts on oxygen sensor Leaks in exhaust system, between engine and catalytic converter Oxygen sensor in front of catalytic converter faulty (shift in characteristics/pollution) I would start with looking for leaks in the exhaust system.
  24. Loren
    Try 0753
  25. Loren
    Yes, it might show you fault codes and actual values (according to their chart) -- http://www.durametric.com/modelfeaturematrixv6.aspx#986
