Dear fellow Carrera owners,  :help:

What kind of coolant fluid do you use when it's time to top off?

Do we need to get the "original" form Porsche dealerships?

What should be the mixture ratio?

Your input would be greatly appreciated!

I give up... What model car and what year?

Yes, that clamp (with bolt) is the only thing that holds them on.

996 111 108 00 Pipe Cover Clip - retail $11.73 each

Yes, from under the car. You will need to remove the rear most belly pan and the switch is up high on the transmission.

996 606 103 01 Switch - retails for about $6

Do you have a part number for this piece so I can get it from the dealer? Is this something that I can get to without having to remove any other parts underneath the car?

Thanks.

Sometimes a good parts department will know the different pins and connectors - because they have replaced one in their shop. So they have already done the trial and error ordering.

Boxster Turbo Look I

7.5 J x 18 H2 offset 50.0 mm 993 362 134 06

9 J x 18 H2 offset 52.0 mm 993 362 138 01

955 559 038 01 4w9 Cayenne Turbo Logo in satin aluminum

The things that I think would matter would be:

The air inlet ducts - C4S or standard later model.

The bumper reinforcement on C4S and TT is shorter than the older Carrera version. So it might have to be cut or changed for the shorter one.

We have added the DME 7.8 P-Code listing to the OBD II P-Codes section. This covers:

DME 7.8 - Boxster (986), S MY03-04; Carrera (996), 4, 4S MY02-MY04; Turbo (996) MY01-05

OBD II P-Codes

Isn't that what a 40 year anniversary 911 has?

Okay I have a DME 7.8 listing now. :D

Give me a few days to get it online here.

P0172 - Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 1 – Below Limit.

P0175 - Oxygen Sensing Adaptation, Idle Range, Bank 2 – Below Limit.

I use Lexol pH Leather Cleaner (reviewed here) and Lexol Leather Conditioner (reviewed here)

You lost me there... there is only one x73 kit for a C4S on Carnewal.com.

There is a kit for C4 "turbo look" - which will I believe is the RoW standard sport suspension for a C4S (this is lower than the US standard sport suspension). If you are not sure email Gert - he is very good at getting you the right parts.

If your car is a non-MOST car then it has conventional wires instead of a fiber optics network. I don't know why that would be a problem.

I think you will find the parts of the wiring harness listed below the 996 612 903 00 number. You may have to buy the pins separately from the connector and assemble it yourself.

My first advice is to wrap the new K&N (or BMC) in newspaper and let it sit overnight. If the newspaper is oil soaked the next day do it again. The number one problem with these filters is over oiling and then that oil getting on the MAF sensor. If that happens you will have to remove the MAF and clean or replace it.

Have a look at the air filter DIY here.

Is there a DIY for this or something that we can see to know where and what to look for?

Thanks,

Nazz

1. P1124/P1125 covers lean conditions (that the DME can not adjust for) at idle. P1128/P1130 cover lean conditions at close to full load.

2. Egas is not an option. It began on C4's (but not the C2) in 1999. All Carrera's have had egas since MY00. On the Boxster all 2.5' s do not have egas.

3. O2 sensors will deteriorate with age and either the sensor will stop sensing or the heater will not get the sensor hot enough. If you record your O2 readings using a scan toll you can watch the sensor deteriorate. Most folks just wait until a failing or failed sensor throws a CEL.
