  1. Does not look like an expansion riveret. Maybe the door plastic cover is held in with three T5 screws.
  2. I am having a problem removing the cover in the door area to get to the nut that holds the tank. The screws are difficult to remove due to the door swing. The part is called a expansion riveret A6,0 x 12,0 Any help in telling me what tool to use to remove the three expansions rieverets? A T10 does not work. Paul
  3. Thank you for your response. There is a box under the drivers seat. All connections were connected and there was no blank connector. I did not look under the passenger seat.
  4. Trying to help a friend with his 1988 911 Carrera. Could not locate the OBD connector. Any help? This could be a european car. The Vin number on the door was scratched off and there is no vin number on the top of the dash. His DMV vin number is WPOEB0917JS161141. Car has not run in about 6 years. Paul
  5. The passenger part number is 3D1-837-016-C. Suset Porsche wants 175 dollars. When I replaced the driver's door about 5 years ago, the part was made in Poland if I remember right. About a two hour job for me.
  6. Have not checked the crank case vacuum. Will take it to dealer. The AOS is original. No squealing noises. Yes, it is parked on an incline. It is there on start up and then goes away. It then comes back on deacceleration when the car is warmed up. Thank you for your reply.
  7. I replaced the serpentine belt. I replaced the boot between the air cleaner and the throttle body but forgot to tighten the hose clamps. Drove the car over 100 miles and it started to smoke. Tighten the hose clamps and the smoke went away. A couple of days later the smoke is back. i think I might need to replace the air/oli separator. Maybe it just needs to be drained. Thank you for responding to my HELP issue.
  8. Took me 4 hours to get the water pump out and 6 hours to put it in. Good thing I don’t make a living fixing Porches.
  9. Wow. 7.5 foot pounds. I expected alot higher. Thank you Loran
  10. I read that the seven bolts that hold the water pump on are torque to 7 foot pounds. Is this right? 2006 997s tiptronic USA
  11. My spring broke last week. I will order the part from Sunset Porsche.
  12. I have a friend with this problem. A common problem is the drive shaft bearing. From whit I have read, You need to buy a $800 drive shaft from Sunset Porsche. The bearing is not sold by itself. Paul
  13. You should look for used cats. There are used Porsche junk yard in Los Angles and Arkansas. I am sure there must be Porsche junkyards in Germany. Paul
