Well the roof froze and I had to manually put the roof up. Unfortunately I had to pop off the push rods for the roof and the roof compartment cover. Found the culprit to be an easy [and cheap] fix. The sensor on the parking brake wasn't working. So I am attempting to put the push rods back on. Just as hard getting them on as taking them off. I popped the roof ones back on and attempted to close the roof. [MANUAL TEST] It almost got their and then stopped and wouldn't go any further. Something was definitely hitting something. I keep thinking that it has to do with transmission or the v flange on it, or position? Nothing else has been touched other than the rods and the ball ends. I think more than likely it's a positioning problem. Mike Focke had a procedure for "synching" the levers, but I'm not sure I know what he was talking about, novice that I am. If someone has a clear explanation, please help! Thanks -

If you're looking for parts do a search for Woody's Parts LLC. in TX. He deals in Porsche parts, at a fair price. I've dealt with him for finding replacement parts for my 1999 Boxster. You can find him on Facebook. -

I had a CEL, and had the code PO306, which indicated a cylinder 6 misfire. Didn't hear, feel anything wrong with the engine. Bit my lip for a week, but it never happened.again. (1999 Boxster Base 2.5L).
