    Hi, It's time for a new set of tires. After reviewing previous threads and the driving condition I have, probably will go for Sumi HTR ZII (not decided yet, just compare price and value). I live in So. Cal with MY03 C2 coupe, never go to track before, daily street drive. Anyone has a bad experience about it? Or any better tire suggestion? Thanks in advance.

    <_< Is there timing chain in the system? At what milage it should be changed? I don't see any of this info on the maintenance list. Maybe no need to change at all? Thanks in advance.

    Keep the Boxster and get a Cayenne. You will enjoy both. :P

    Just curious :eek: Can the manual seat be changed to power one by simply swapping seat rail with motor and seat position switch on the side of the seat? Is there any fuse, wiring harness, or other parts needed? If it is possible, what is the parts necessary? Thanks in advance.

    Hi: After reading this thread, I checked my coolant level. I found it is low (below low level bar a lot), but the temp never goes up above 180-200. Should I add some in? Can I add pink directly in without flushing out yellow one? Thanks. P.S. Never mind, I found the answer :D

    Just wondering if the top speed in the US 996 model has been set at certain speed? If yes, what is it? Thanks

    :eek: Don't have the engine running or you'll suck the cloth into the engine ! Use both the spray and a cloth ... Thanks :thumbup:

    I think a throttle cleaning is definitely good to the performance. So, how long should I clean it? Once a year? or every time I do the air filter change? Will too much cleaning damage any seal by using carb cleaner? Tech question: Should I clean it with engine off or running? Just spray the cleaner into the throttle or use a lint cloth to wipe the throttle? I have never done that before. :oops: Thanks in advance.

    Thanks, TP. That answers my question. :P

    Hi, I want to make a spare key without remote control part. I was wondering if the remote control part is necessary to turn on the ignition? Since I bought the car used (MY03 C2 coupe), I don't have manufacture spare key (original owner lost it). Can I just take my key and make only the front part and use it as a spare? <_< Thanks in advance.

    Thanks a lot. Please keep me updated.

    Hi: i am thinking about adding aluminum pedal on my MY03 C2. There are so many kinds of pedal in the market, I don't know which one is better in terms of look and feel. Also, is there any pedal can be installed without drilling? Are those good? Thanks!! :help:

    Hi, I was wondering if 5w-30, instead of 0w-40 oil is used in 996, what effect or feeling it will be when driving? Accelerating slower? or bad to engine? Or nothing at all? <_< Thanks in advance.
  17. PorscheFan
    No!! :( The weird part is that if I lock the car with remote, the noise will go away.

    I have seen an article about air flow to the engine. People think if they take out some kind of air duct will make engine suck in more air. But this air duct is purposely there to direct air into engine. Without it , less air will flow into the engine. I think this may prove it.

    No, None of them.

    Hi: Yesterday I sit in the car with engine off, door closed, key removed. After the interior light was off, a da-da-da sound came out from driver side dash speaker. The sound is very low and non-stop unless I pressed the lock bouton on the key. When the car is locked, the noise is gone. But after unlocking the car, no noise came out if the door is not opened. But after the door is opened and the interior light goes off, the sound came back again. I don't know if anybody has the same experience? Except annoying, is it a sign of leaking battery of something else? Thanks in advance. MY03 c2 coupe w/bose system

    Hi, everyone: I have a question about warranty coverage when you install switch for either spoiler or garage door opener to the upper center console and connect it to the power source of the phone or tapped into another wire to get ground/power. Will this hack void original warranty? If yes, how can you get around to it without voiding the warranty? Thanks in advance.

    U.S. model. This car came with Xinon light but I didn't see p74 option code. Is it possible that a aftermarket light was installed? Thanks
  24. PorscheFan

  25. PorscheFan
