Hello everyone, I am thinking to go with H&R springs on my 2002 996tt, its a daily car. now the question is should i got with the 19 inch wheels also? i have heard that i should stay with 18's on 996s ?? Avantgarde m310 http://www.sportslinkup.com/shop/0-Avantgarde-m310-1.html Thanks,

Hello everyone .. I have a 2002 996 TT Tip and the outer right front CV boot is leaking and i couldn't find repair instruction yet, not sure if i am looking for it correctly also need instruction on how to replace the exhaust.. anyone ? Thanks.

Hello everyone, I couldn't find a DIY on oil change on a 996 TT The book shows i can use 0W-40, 5W-40 or 5W-50. Does anyone know 1-How many places I need to drain oil from ?? I was told 3 places, 2 turbos and the motor. 2-Which oil should I use ? I live in So cal so the weather is between 60 and 90 degrees most of the time .

Hello everyone, I just picked up a 996 TT with 88,000 miles on it (90k service was just dont $3k), replacing my 996 C2 with 181,000 miles on it. the ABS (passenger right corner) kicks in when i apply brakes when making a long right right turn. it feels that the brake paddle pushes back up also. I think i felt the same thing in my 996 C2 once or twice before but with the steering wheels was turned almost all the way left or right. Any idea ??? Now today i noticed that the PSM light comes on when that happens.

Thanks but where does it say K&N is not legal in CA ?? I have the same Filter for my 996 C2 and passes smog every time :) K&N 57 SERIES GENERATION II FIPK COLD AIR INTAKE SYSTEM -- 50-state legal, C.A.R.B. exempted with E.O. number D-269-34; Provides additional power up to 23.80 h.p. at 5500 RPM; 96 to 99 percent filtration efficiency; Includes black roto molded intake tube, red air filter, heat shield, and all the necessary hardware for installation; Fuel injection performance kit; Features high density polyethylene intake tube that is custom engineered and aerodynamically designed to drive air into your engine; Its washable and reusable air filter is made of multiple interwoven layers of surgical cotton gauze infused or charged with oil for outstanding filtration and airflow; Comes with a heat shield that is custom designed to isolate and provide cooler air; Virtually eliminates intake tract restriction by replacing the air filter and the entire air path to the engine; Can go up to 100,000 miles between cleanings depending on driving conditions; Easy to install.

Hello everyone, I just picked up a 2002 996 TT tip $25k with 88k miles on it as my daily driver...replacing my 2000 996 C2 tip with 181,000 miles on it. needs some work to make it mine. I really dont want to spend too much $$, i am looking at 1-Lowering (just for look) will never race it. I like the ride so i dont want it to change much just lower (H&R springs) 2-Exhaust (catback) (peedTech 70mm Hi-Flow Exhaust Mufflers Porsche 996 TT ) http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/speedtech-70mm-hiflow-exhaust-mufflers-porsche-p-113338.html 3-Cold Air Intake http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/search/?Ntt=cold%20air%20intake 4- Tint what do guys think ?? and what should i do with my old 996 C2 Tip with 181,000 miles on it ?? worth $12k ish

great thx i was going to sell the 2000 996 cuz i got a 2002 996 TT but looking at all the rig u have i am having a 2nd thought ... hmm :drive: If you did not do so, you probably need to change the wear sensors. One on each side. And I think on a 2000 you can disconnect the battery for a few minutes to reset the computer. That should do it. Unless you changed the front brakes, and it is actually the rear brake sensors that are triggering the light? Good luck. DC

Hello everyone, I have 2000 996 C2 Tip with 181,000 miles on it .. the brake wear light has been on for a while and i thought i need new brakes in the front so i just change the pads, but the light (Brake Wear) stays on.. is the dealer or a porsche mechanic the only one that can turn that light off ??
