    Thanks Loren, I will try that.

    Hi Loren, I tried that, but they won't go in. I am assuming that there must be a release latch to keep them from going down, otherwise in a roll over they would be useless. i can't even open the top because they are in the way. Seat belts are fine.

    Need some help, and could not find in search. I rear ended a car today, and the roll bars popped out. It was not a strong inpact, and nothing happened to my bumper, but the roll bars popped out. Anyone can tell me how to put them back in. Thanks.

    Thanks Loren. This will help a lot.

    I need to remove my driver side mirror to get it painted. I had that stupid Xpel film on the car, and when I pulled it off the mirror and front bumper, the clear coating came off with the film. I did a few searches in the forum but could not find anything on R&R the mirror. Maybe somebody point me in the right direction. Thanks. 2004 C4S

    Just an update. Got all my parts and opened valve cover. pushed on the lifters, and was very happy to find the problem right away. One of the exhaust lifters pushed in easily, so for some reason it went bad. Replaced all lifters for cylinder # 6, closed it up and cleared all fault codes and started it up. Runs like a charm.

    Thanks for the info. I just ordered a shop manual, and will start working to replace the lifters in the next few days. Will post after I have it fixed.

    My C4S wuth 60K miles just threw the Check engine light. Hooked up my PST2 and got the P306 misfire cylinder # 6 I changed spark plug, and coil, and erased fault, and still the CEL came on. I then assumed it was the injector, so I hooked up a noid light, and pulse is OK, so I just spent all day replacing # 6 injector with a new one. I thought that would have solved my problem, but after I started the engine, the CEL came on again. If I don't let the engine idle and drive it on the freeway, it runs ok, and the CEL does not come on. Once I let it idle, it comes on. I am going to do a compression test on # 6, and a leakdown test, but I think being it runs ok at a higher RPM, it would not be compression. I don't know if the VarioCam has anything to do with this problem. Appreciate any help or suggestions from anyone. I do not want to take it to the dealer and get ripped off. Forgot to put in the year, its a 2004 C4S

    My Porsche warranty on my 2004 4s with 43K miles on it, runs out on the end of this month. I checked with my Porsche dealer on getting an extended warranty, and they suggested Easy Care to add 4 years or 50K miles for $5388.00 with $250.00 deductible. When I came home, I decided to do a check on Easy Care, and from all the complaints I see, looks like they are a Rip-off Company. Anyone with a warranty company they can recommend? A company that actually pays for a claim when needed.

    I have the 997 19" turbo wheels on my 996 C4S, and they fit perfectly. The rears were supposed to use 5mm spacers, but after trying them, I decided not to use them. They look great.
  12. jr_152
    I am looking to replace my 18" wheels with a 19" set off a 2008 Turbo. I have a couple of questions I need help with. My front wheel is 8" and the new one is 8.5" deep, so I don't know if that will be a problem. My second question is that there is a difference of 6mm in the offset, front and rear. My front offset is 50mm, the new wheel is 56mm My rear offset is 45mm, the new wheel is 51mm How critical is the 6mm difference, and should I use 6mm spacers? Thanks for any help.

    Thanks Loren, I will call the bosch sales rep tomorrow, and find more details on it, and I will post results. This should wrap this thread up. The KTS 200 has limited functionality on Porsche vehicles, but in the future more functions will be added.

    Thanks for the info Loren, but when I was checking their training site, it does show Porsche as one of the vehicles that can be selected. In your opinion, what is the max I should pay for a PST2?
