US or RoW?

stock or sport?

If you are changing suspensions I think you want a kit that includes springs, shocks and sway bars?

stock, I have springs(Eibach) on car and want to go back to stock springs, I believe sport springs may be option as they would offer better ride than I have now and raise car some-sets too low now.

Thanks

could someone supply pat numbers for stock springs for MY99 996 cab with Tiptronic , all 4 springs

Thanks

My question is will stock springs and shocks fro a 2000 C2 coupe with manual trans work in my car?

They might work but Porsche uses different spring rates and shock stiffness for coupes and cabs. As well the Tip and 6 speed matter also. It is all a case of weight and balance - Porsche's running are "tuned" to the cars options/weight/balance. Stock springs will raise the car up some and soften the ride some at the expense of some handling.

Thanks Loren

I have 99 996 C2 cab with tiptronic. The origanl owner put on Eibach springs. I am considering going back to stock springs to soften ride for daily driver. Also even though lowered car looks and handles great car sets too low for speed bumps driveways, etc. My question is will stock springs and shocks fro a 2000 C2 coupe with manual trans work in my car?

Thanks in advance, this is a great forum

I have a 99 996 cab that has a rattle on the drivers side were the top meets the windshield pilar. Is there an adjustment I can make that will pull this down tighter to eliminate the rattle ?

Good morning, great site, it has helped in the purchase and maintenance of my 996.

I purchase a 99 c2 cab that already had a lowered suspension installed. How can I identify what suspension my 996 has? The spring in the car have a yellow color. The height of the wheel well lip in the back is 25" and in the front 25 1/4". I have 18" whells with P zeros installed.

Thank for the help.

The knobs can not be replaced by themselves. Some MY99 cars had the radio buttons "peel". The original buttons had stick on markings so they started to peel after some time of use. Dealers replaced the radio with an exchange or new unit when the cars were under warranty (including mine). You can try to get your dealer to do the same - but out of warranty would be purely a courtesy.

good morning. My 99 996 has developed sticky radio knobs. Its almost like they have a glue on them that stays tacky all the time. My question is has anyone else had this problem and how to fix or can the knobs be replaced without removing the radio?

Thanks in advance
