I had a quote for the exchange transmission, 11k can. :cursing:
but I heard it could be fixed for half the price.

Is there a harness and relay for the retrofit interior auto-dim rearview mirror?
I found a factory replacement one for 996s that had it as an option already, Is there any harness for that? anyway to install it..?
thanks
-
Out of curiosity, does it happen only at very slow speeds (under 15 mph) or at any speed?
low speed

Thanks Loren.

Hi, Im having a little problem with my gears... When I shift to second gear it pops out back to neutral.
Its happening more and more, Im wondering what could be the cause.
thanks

As I recall almost one inch lower than stock with PSS9s.
I would change the sway bars too - that will be one low very stiff street car. I predict a bent wheel or two...
It said somewhere in this forum that its stock height when PSS9 in maximum level..?
Im going for this setup because in case there is rubbing I could just adjust it higher, and
isn't the stiffness adjustable too on these suspension?
thanks

Hi, I finally decided to lower my C2 99 w/ 19's and looking to get PSS9s, I don't know if my tires will rub so Im getting these adjustables.
Does anyone know how low is the maximum height on PSS9s compared to stocks?
What other parts do I need, I heard GT3 sway bar and some other, any part number if oem?
thanks.

Thanks alot Richard :cheers:
btw ordered it from dealer/Germany and is about 500 w/extra for quick delivery.
The retrofit rain sensor described in the TSB might be different to the kit they supply. I ordered and fitted the kit, but it isn't quite the same as the TSB instructions. Porsche supplied me with a Xanonex kit (http://www.xanonex.de) and the sensitivity isn't adjustable with the old wiper delay control. It is very easy to fit - you just stick the sensor to the screen and run the cable across the top of the screen and down behind the A pillar trim. Remove the old relay and plug the new one in, and plug the cable into the top of the relay. The relay goes in position 16 of the carrier - that's the slot on the far right hand side of the carrier, 3rd one down. It should be marked on the top 996.615.103.00. -
Thanks Loren, how do I find which relay to change?
its not mentioned in the TSB about which relay to replace.
-
Is there a DIY for this retrofit,
how do I find the original relay to be replaced?
-
anyone know if its safe or not.

I wish I knew a bit more about this before I purchased my wheels 19" 8.5/10.5
and the tires size everyone kept recommending was 275/30 rear and 235/30 front.
but the wheel comes out of the tire as if tire is not wide enough.. Isn't that dangerous??
the installer told me its ok. Ive never seen that before and dont want to get into an accident to find out.
Im a bit confused about what to do, should I get wider tire or if its safe just drive it for the summer and switch back to 18" for next summer.
please let me know if it is safe to take out my Porcha.
btw I have MY99 C2 coupe.
thanks
