  1. TSBs for your car are here: http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?a...mp;code=carrera

    Contributing members can view TSBs online here. Read through the Announcement at the top of any forum for more info on becoming a Contributing Member.

    Pardon my ignorance, so what happens after i find TSB which lets assume says "tail pipe brackets are defective, crack at welding point ". Do I get it fixed for free as it is a manufacturers defect? Sounds too good to be true.

    If that is not the case, what is the point of looking for TSB as I know precisely which part is broken (except for the roof problem)

  2. PCM-agreed

    both keys - not working

    seat memory- not working -- most likely related to a key problem.-----

    >>keys replaced, followed all posts from this forum - could not get memory working

    brackets on both tails pipes - cracked -- perhaps you are someone else backed into a curb. I've never seem one of these cracked from normal use.---

    >> not the case, and they cracked 5k apart from each other one at the welding point the other under clamp (these are brackets that are welded to the last piece of pipe)

    RMS- leaked, replaced at 22k -- this is a known problem and the latest seal (if that is what they used) usually solves the problem.

    Clutch- cracked pressure plate- replaced entire clutch -- never seen one that cracked that wasn't abused. The clutches in these cars can easily go over 100K miles - if they are not abused.

    >>>>> not abused (have to trust on that). pics attached (Porsche said. this is result of incorrect installation! this is the original clutch! go figure)

    roof- rattling as hell with no way to find source -- your dealer needs to read his TSBs. These problems have been covered and solved.

    >>> on the way to my dealer (where can i look up tsb numbers?)

    even after RMS replacement engine eats 1L/600miles -- so that says the car does not leak oil any longer - but does not mean it is not burning oil.
