Hi All, Workin on my project 08 Boxster w 2 deployed air bags. I recently learned your supposed to replace the dash when replacing the passenger airbag. Ugh...i had a dash out already. I was getting the aluminium dash cover (aluminium cover on underside of dash)to bend back....maybe able to make it look good.. Any work around for this issue ? Thanks v

Thanks

Thanks for getting back John. I checked it again high was 225 which is in the  range from what you said. Low was 35 to 45 but the needle kept fluctuating back and forth back and forth keeps moving no pause. Is my low side too high? I was going to add a bit more but didnt get a chance. AC was blowing 58 on a 90 degree day 

Finally got back to my ac. Installed new condenser hose, expansion valve and receiver/dryer. 30oz of 134 and a little less than an oz of ac oil. It was 82 degrees my low read 45psi high was 230. Are these good readings? AC was approx 56 with the doors off( doin body work)

Hi All, Full AC recharge 08 Boxster. Replaced  AC condenser line, Expansion valve and receiver/Dryer and need to know how much AC oil to add. Full 6.6oz or less.

Also ....is 30 oz of 314 the max or can a little more or less go in. I have an 18oz can that I used a bit of(maybe 2 or 3 oz) and full 12 oz can.Thanks V

Just checking ..987.1 model year is 2006-08. Buying an 06 fender want to be sure it will fit my 08 boxster. Thanks V

Ok,unplug clip from low pres. switch and just jump the 2 terminals on the connector(wire side) assuming there are only 2. 

I can't get the compressor to run and charge the system. Is it because of the low pressure switch. How do I charge if the compressor dosen't run? Thanks V

Yes but don't I have to charge the system so I could charge it with with leak dye so I can find the leak. Then repair the leak evac system and add oil and coolant

Hi all, 08 boxster. AC compressor does not come on. Seemed to have no psi when I went to add coolant. Added coolant to 25 psi but compressor remained off. Please advise how to troubleshoot. Keep in mind I'm doing this in cold weather.  Thanks v

Hi all, So I need the part that part number  997 505 531 00 is bolted to. It's a sheetmetal part that maybe tack welded or just glued in with panel adhesive. I thought the part was 997 501 631 00, that's what I thought I read on the panel. With research I found it maybe PN# 997 501 931 01. It has holes for rubber grommets that hold the frunk release cables. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks V

Bump...answered my own question the incorrect # I had is the cast # the correct PN 997 501 931 01 GRV. 

Ok ...so it just sits in the bumper cut out... no finishing trim or anything.

PN's 987 505 551 00

         987 505 555 00

         987 505 751 00      are these the parts associated with the trim for the bumper cover?

Thanks Loren

Ok I have that... I called it the shroud. There's no trim piece that attaches it to the bumper? Thanks v

Hi all, Picked up used center radiator for an upgrade for my 08 boxster. I have the radiator, 2 hoses, bracket, aluminum support and the shroud. My question is if there's a trim piece that holds the Rubber shroud to the bumper or does it fit thru the opening of the bumper without any extra hardware. Thanks v

Well unfortunately I didn't get it....got wrong hood. My replacement(incorrect) hood is 991 511 011 03. These fitment yrs are 2012-2020?

Got it ...thanks

Thanks Loren, So I should find that part # on all included parts.

Hi all, Have an 08 boxster project car. Ordered a front hood from ebay advertised as 2005-2012 hood for 911,Boxster,Cayman. Are these hoods transferable with all these models. I eye balled it ... Doesn't look like a fit. Thanks V

Can I see it with my durametric?

My 08 boxster displays both TPC and PSM inactive. I believe 2 tire sensors have failed.. since only 2 tires are reading pressure the other 2 just are blank. Just wondering if this would cause the PSM to shut down as well. Thanks v

Said it was like putting your finger on a straw to stop additional brake fluid from coming out. Urban myth?

Ok thanks ...and block the brake pedal?

Hi All, Going to paint my calipers...2008 Boxster Base. It would be much easier to remove them for the job. Any better way to do this, I'd like to get them all off at once, clean, paint and re-install. I read to engage and block the brake pedal to not lose a lot of fluid(going to do a fluid flush anyway). Is it the regular flush/bleed procedure with my brake bleed kit? No PIWIS needed? Thanks Vince 

Thats what I was thinking. Thanks 

I need to refill my expansion tank after replacing it. I only siphoned out the coolant in the tank and did a tank replacement. Lost dribbles of coolant from the hose that has the quick connector, other hoses were pretty dry when detached. My question... can I just fill the expansion tank with the bleed valve open or do I have to pull vacuum and fill it that way with my venturi set up.? Seems like a bit much considering I'm only replacing the coolant that was in the tank. Thanks v
