The brakes on a S model are bigger then on a non S model.
I would assume that a 2S and a 4S would be the same. You can
check the part numbers for the two models. If the pads are the same, then the
rotors are the same.
Not to hard to replace rotors with stock rotors.

It is the door latch. Here is the DIY.

The latch just gives out with time.
Good luck.

I was told by a mechanic that you lift the car and with a long rod,
you hammer underneath the transmission to pop the alternator cable loose from
the top of the transmission. There is not much working room and it does take
a good hit to pop loose.
There is no way to get your hands into the top of the transmission because
the transmission cooler sits on top of the transmission and it is in the way.

Very interesting write up about running winter tires in
Germany. I know that Switzerland is real close and
that looks like a real good place to drive a Porsche. Maybe
I will drive a Porsche in Switzerland someday(Yes it will
be during the summer).
Sorry to hear about your winter tire rules for your country.

I am glad it is fixed.

My only choice would be to dis-connect the battery for about
3 to 5 minutes. This could reset everything. You will need to
re-teach your car how you drive.

Yes you need to get a 997-2 cable for a 997-1 car
that is dated 2006.
Here is an old link.
Glad you hard cranking is cured.

The 997S brakes are bigger then the 997 brakes.

The hardest part of doing the brakes is
removing the tire. I have driven to the track
and installed brakes before driving on the track.
These are the easiest brakes to do of any car
that I have ever own.

Mixing tires is not a great thing to do but
sometimes you do it anyway.
Good luck.

Replace belt with new. Not
a big investment.
Good luck with the pulleys.

I try to keep my opinions to myself.
I picked up 5 seconds a lap at the Thunderhill Racetrack
in Buttonwillow, California.
I hate to see people post questions and never get any feed back.
I may not be right 100 percent of the time but I like
to try and help others.

So you are saying that you never had to re-build the motor
and all you had to do was change the oil.
You really think a 355 horsepower motor can
take all that track abuse?
I dis-agree but then it is your website.

The Pirelli p-zeros are a hard tire and last alot longer
then the Michelins.

Car should be fine up to about 50,000 miles.
Track days after 50,000 miles would be a time to
re-think what you want to do with the car.

Might want to give a call to a salvage yard.

They get new cars in every two weeks.
Just keep calling.

That might not be a cable. It might be a air hose I think.
Try pulling it out of the air box with not much effort.

The six CD player plays regular format music CD's.
The one CD plays MP3 files.
An average MP3 CD disc holds about 125 songs in MP3 format.

I have a couple of jumper batteries.
They work great in a plane. One
powers my moving map display while
flying.
Good luck with your winter shut down.

I can just imagine me driving in the desert.
Down-shifting from 6th to 5th at 140MPH.
Or maybe on the Dubai Racetrack.
