  1. :rolleyes: I'm thinking about the short shift option for my Boxster 2000/2.7 5 speed, but I do not know too much about it except that I was told that it is more fun and faster to shift. How much will it cost and how to get it done? Thanks,
  2. I also found the bits (including that size) at Lowe's for about $17.00. Nader, if you could have a procedure for changing the rotor + pads on this board with pictures, that would be great. I'm thinking about doing that myself too. Or, if the procedure already posted somewhere on this board? Thanks.
  3. Toolpants, I do not have the radio manual. Could you please look and see how I can reset the radio so I can try to enter the code again? Thanks alot.
  4. "You have the first version of the sensor that was used until January 31, 2000, so your car must have been made before then." My car is 2000 year model, but might have been made before then. "WAIT is covered in the radio manual. You either entered the wrong code or you have the wrong code card. Did you buy the car used? A lot of the early 220 radios were replaced due to peeling buttons, and you may not have the original radio that goes with your code card." I called the dealer and they said to disconnect the radio for 20minutes and then try again, otherwise, call them back with the VIN and the serial number of the radio as you said can be display on the front display using one of the buttons. Thanks for your help. Also, to save someone some problem figuring out how to clean the MAF, I happened to have one of those "Electronic Contact Cleaner" from GCC that says "does not harm plastic", and I used that to spray my original MAF and left it soaked for about 2 mins but I did not touch the part that looks like a diode. Then I used the Computer Air spray to spray it clean. It seems to work so far, no engine light back yet.
  5. Mine part number of the MAF is 996 606 124 00 which I believe is 2.7/3.2 old style sensor. However, I removed it, cleaned it and put it back. Removed the battery connection for 5 minutes, plugged it back in. The Engine light is off now. I'll call the partbin.com on Monday to see what the cheaper price unit is and whether I can use that if the light comes back on. However, now I have another problem, the radio code did not work for some reason even that is the code on the card that comes with the car. Now the radio has the "WAIT" display and does not take on any code, what can I do? THanks,
  6. The URL to thepartbins.com for these two MAF's is: http://www.carpartsteam.com/PO_Boxster_Air...+Meter_019.html and the one: Air Mass Meter 996 606 124 00, has the price of $400 and this one: Air Mass Meter B3130-116456 has the price of $159. I believe that Dave bought his for around $180? Is this the same as the second part ($159)? Mine is 2000 year model, so I can replace it with the newer MAF? Thanks
  7. why there are two different parts and prices at thepartsbin.com for the MAF boxster 97-2003 year? one is about $400 and the other is $150? thanks
