    My hesitation problem came back a few weeks ago, I cleaned the MAF again, it went away for a while until last week. The car now wouldn't rev at all when cold. And after it warmed up the engine would then stall randomly.:cursing:

    Here is the installation steps in case anyone needs it for future reference... Credit to MAcarbon

    Anyone has done this in a 997.2?

    Sorry, haven't really had the time to do this the last couple of days. But I was looking at it just then, trie to pry it upwards with those special plastic interior removal tools but it seemed to be very tight fitting and I didn't want to break anything.:help: No I couldn't see the metal clip either.

    Its a 2010 Carrera 4, thanks.

    I'm replacing mine with painted pieces, there are two tabs which I don't want to break, so I thought I should ask here if anyone has replaced those before and how? Appreciate any help.:thankyou:
  7. panameras
    OK thanks. I will try that, I didn't get to clean it last time. :thankyou:

    How do you search/find older threads on here? Sorry I haven't been on this forum for a long time, but my throttle hesitation is happening again and I'm trying to find one of my older threads which had some valuable info I might need. Help - right next to where you sign in at the top right - will bring you to: Help Topic: Searching http://www.renntech....lp&do=01&HID=24 I knew that, that's how I found this thread in the first place.:rolleyes: I meant how do I find my own old threads? When I click on my profile it only showed 3 of my threads, I'm pretty sure I had many more. Thanks
  9. panameras
    exactly like mine. so what was the final diagnosis? did you ever fixed the problem?

    My 2000 S has just started having this problem, again! It also happened early last year which went away after I cleaned the MAF. Its now happening again and I'm considering replacing the MAF this time. Hopefully its not due to some other issues...

    Thank you Sir!

    Hi everyone, I'm planning to upgrade to a pioneer double navigation unit, http://www.pioneer.com.au/en/Products/Navigation/In%20Dash%20Navigation/AVIC-F20BT.aspx, where can I get parts to relocate the climate control unit to the lower centre dash? Appreciate your help.
  14. panameras
    Actually its a pic off the internet, my center caps do have silver crests. Thanks for replying anyway. Cheers.
  15. panameras
    I think you're right about the PN. I wasn't sure because the seller stated it'd fit 18" and 19" Cayenne wheels but didn't mention 20s. Then again. I don't think Porsche would make a different size center caps just for the 20s. Thanks for the help.
  16. panameras
    I have got the sport design 20" wheels on my 2004 Cayenne turbo and I need to replace one of the center caps. Found one on ebay that says "7L5.601.149.C" on the back. However on the back of my center caps its "7L5.601.149.G". Will the "7L5.601.149.C" fit my wheel? ebay cap http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsche-Cay...sQ5fAccessories my wheel Appreciate any help. J

    Yes I'm aware of the stiffer setting of PASM would be great for track work. But like I said I'd only track the car once or twice a year (if any), so I'm not sure if that justifies paying extra for the PASM? What about ride quality? Some of the roads I use to travel to work are pretty bad. Which is better, stock suspension or PASM "normal" mode?
  18. panameras
    Its actually a C2, just trying to show the stock ride height of a non PASM Carrera over here. But thanks for looking. :D

    I'm trying to spec up an 2010 C4, PDK with sport chrono. Blue tooth, Nav and Bose are standard on Australian spec 911s. What I'm not sure is whether PASM and Multi-Function Steering Wheel are necessary options? It'll be my daily driver and I don't plan to track the car that often, maybe once or twice a year max. The standad ride height of an AUS spec non-PASM 911 is not that bad (I read somewhere US 911s are higher?). Here is a pic, As for the M/F steering wheel, I'm not if its that desirable since the PCM unit is already located quite close? Thanks for any advice.

    Strangely enough, this morning when I started the car the idle has fixed itself! :thumbup: It ran above 1k rpm for 10 to 15 seconds or so (not sure what it was but happens all the time when cold start. Fuel pump?) then settled down to just below the 800 rpm mark and stayed there. What a pleasant surprise! I was prepared to spend the night doing the throttle body cleaning after work. I think the "unscientific correlation between cleaning/replacing MAF and rough idle afterwards" might have something to do with an un-dry MAF. The rough idle happened right after the MAF cleaning and was still happening two hours later when I took the car for a drive. Although I did let the MAF dry for an hour in the air before reinstalling, it may have not been completely dry. Now after spending more than 24 hours sitting in the garage, the rough idle has gone away. Then again, it could be just the ECU needed time to adjust to the "new" cleaner MAF. Whatever the cause I'm just happy that its solved. :cheers:

    Bump
  22. panameras
    Thanks. That could be it, but if the MAF wasn't dry yesterday after I cleaned it, it surely should be dry now. How long did you leave the battery disconnect in order to reset the ECU?
  23. panameras
    Thanks I've already read the throttle body DIY. But what I don't understand is why would I get rough idle now after cleaning the MAF as it was fine before when the car was having hesitation? Do I need to reset the ECU (unplug battery?) at all after cleaned the MAF? There was no CEL by the way.
  24. panameras
    Boxster S MY00, 48k Mi. Had hesitation below 2000rpm on all gears, cleaned MAF following mikefocke's page, hesitation seem to have gone away but car now idles funny. Keeps dipping from 900rpm (or whatever the standard idle should be) to around 500rpm, even down to 200rpm occasionally. And sometimes it also holds at 900rpm for up to 5 seconds at a time. Car had a similar rough idle problem less than 10k Mi ago, the stealership replaced the 2 cam tensioners and cost me a forture. So I don't think it would be the cam tensioners again this time, but the symptoms are alarmingly similar. Appreciate any help.
  25. panameras
    Ok thanks. :)
