Hi,
I have a 2003 996 Carrera2 Cab Tip with a poorly roof. I'm pretty sure it's the hydraluics as the fluid is low and it makes a whinny and sucking noise when going opening and closing. I am keen to find out the part number for a hydraulic cylinder (arm) and to know if this is an easy job to repair. Porsche quoted me $$$$$!
You help is most welcome.
Thank you.

Looking for the part number for the driver side hydrualic ram for the convertable top as this one is leaking. Would also appriciate if anyone would know the price of the ram.
Is this a DIY change out?
Thanks
Spankey
Did you ever find this part number and price?

Hi,
I also have this problem on my 2003 996 C2 CAB. If it makes a whinny intermitant noise and opens and shuts in jumps, then it sounds like a hydraulic problem. A suggestion already made is to check the fluid or look for leaks. You can replace the fluid but there must be a leak somewhere.
I have had mine diagnosed by porsche and need a new Hydraulic Cylinder, where can I find this part and part number please???
Many thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for the response, I did find that conversation. They too were asking for the part number and any advise on replacing the hydraulic arm with - no response.
Thanks again.
