    First series ( depend which country ) have no remote, only central locking with the key, perhaps that the first owner have changed the key to a remote look.

    You need a PIWIS tester or similar diagnose tool to receive the fault codes. There are to many possibilities without the codes.

    The door lock / latch ( build inside the door, with the big electric connector ) is faulty in your case.

    Not necessary with the car on a lift, i don't no on the floor or on ramps.

    I think that you have a small leak coming from the oil pump assembly. Regards.

    Wipers for LH and RH traffic are differend !

    Pull off the edge and with a small screw driver you can open the lock through the free holes, it takes time and patience the first time you do it, like every thing. Regards.

    Don't by mad if you have troubles, the clips are stronger than the cover and the hooks are fragile as glass. Only the clips are sold separately, the rest is one piece. Good luck.

    Look for broken wiring inside the door with OHM-meter, if the connector in the A pillar is free from corrosion.

    Seat heaters are a part of the ACC module for 997 and 987, reprogramming or change-out with an other one can help you out. Look like the heaters are working only on possition one, left and right as well.

    If the fuel filter is mounted under the expansion tank, you got a C4 MY 99.

    Replacement with OEM is the only option, turbo clutch is different. I don't no if the clutch is still covered in the extended warranty after 5 years, give it a try.

    This rear plate is not an ordinary plate, she is a cooling item for the gear box!!!

    Try with new ATF fluid, if there is no result you got an internal gearbox problem with the clutch Assembly's.

    Probably one of the two fuel pumps have a problem. The used system is not as simple as that, in the electric box under the engine hood are two relays and two fuses, one for each pump. Under the chassis on the left rear side is the electr.connector to the pumps, some have to much play inside, and the pins will burn and have a bad contact. The pumps are accessible under the rear seats left and right side. I will try to give a short explanation, if you open the car with the remote and take the door handle to open the door, pump 1 gives a pre load. Starting the engine pump 1 and pump 2 are working, after 10 sec. pump 1 stops and the engine is running on pump 2 ( conditions - car horizontal position and fuel tank approx. 15 liter ). If you have a warranty go to a OPC, if not try to get a technical bulletin. Success.

    This is a normal symptom with cold tyres, it is a part of the front wheel geometry ( Ackerman effect ). Nothing to worry about.
  17. RFM
    The diaphragm spring in the pressure plate is cracked, replacement of the complete clutch is recommended.
  18. RFM
    @ seafeye Look at your wheel rims for deformations.
  19. RFM
    Pressure plate not flywheel. I hope that you can solved the problem, let us informed.
  20. RFM
    You should have them connected to the front door control modules like the TSB shows, otherwise they flicker on a 2008.
  21. RFM
    The pressure plate is a special construction with a automatic adjusting system witch compensate the thickness off the clutch plate during his live, to maintain the biting point at the same possition, worn or new. It is not possible to reset the pressure plate what means that the pressure plate and the clutch plate have to be changed as a unit ( 997 - 987 ) Perhaps that you find out the problem in this area, the biting point is approx. 1/4 travel. Slave or other cylinders have nothing to do with clutch slip. Regards.

    Sorry that you feel old now Loren, but I'M old. :(

    Cable adjustment can be done on the shifter in the cabin.
  24. RFM
    997 and 987 MY 2005 have still the old engine with the RMS and intermediate shaft problem. From MY 2006 all engines have the revised shaft and seal ( WPOZZZ99Z(6)S****** ).

    The last cable operated clutch on a Porsche was 25 years ago, the 3.2 liter Carrera.
