    I was thinking of changing my fuel filter, it's a 2002 C2, 6 speed with 3.6, the car is coming out of hibernation this Saturday on the website, Note: some vehicles do not require a filter, see if your car is listed. http://e-partssales.com/Merchant2/merchant...ry_Code=996main Do I have a fuel filter? if so what is the correct part number. I find it kind of starange not having a fuel filter. Thanks

    Have you considered sand blasting?

    I have one of these on my SUV, I was thinking of tie wrapping one of these to the plastic oil filter housing, getting the adapter to a spin on filter is pricy, when you only drive the car 5-6 months a year, and only do 1 change a year. http://www.shopfiltermag.com/ I did purchase a magnetic oil drain plug.

    It's almost time to bring the 2002 C2 out from hibernation, I am switching out the stock cats to 200 cell cats, do I need to completely remove the mufflers to change out the cats, or can I get away with just unbolting the cats from the muffler and headers and switch them? Thanks

    The install video is on the LNEngineering site - it includes more than enough detail for the average DIY'er. It's on their site, http://www.lnengineering.com/spinonfilteradapter.html, but Mr. Navarro said it's probably better to view it on You Tube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bv8BTItCrF0. It looks so easy, even all-thumbs-me could install it. I thought about adding a spin on filter, but I decided for the amount of driving I do, since this is a summer car, and I will only do 1 oil change a year before it goes into storage, It wasn't worth it to me. The only benefit of putting for me to put on a spin on filter is to add a filtermag on it. On my SUV, I use a filtermag on my oil filter. http://www.shopfiltermag.com/

    Welcome. I brought a US spec 996 Cab to Canada about a year ago. The Daytime Running light fix is easy and works like a charm. The speedo and dash issue was solved with a quick trip to the dealer (Calgary). They charged $37 to switch the dash to metric. It took about 10 minutes. When you download the manual it will also tell you how to change the speedo reading between miles and kilometres. Good luck. Thanks very much for the replies, I switch the miles to kilometers using the right top stick on the instrument cluster, but the farenhaits stay there. Will the dealer or myself be able to change them to celcius? thanks, Andy K To change temperature use the lower left lever and scroll through the settings on your dash panel, this sets up all your conversions, it's all in the user manual.

    Hi I an Canada with the same car, For your Daytime running lights do this http://www.whiteson.org/boxster/mods/drl/ It's in your owners manual: right top side of your speedo to change a 996/997 speedo to km from miles, turn the little dial to the left and hold for 5 or 6 seconds

    In Canada I would fight the ticket, plus the witness is a friend, so that do he could be lying for the driver. The Police officer should had given the other a ticket for not turning left in safety, because, is up to the driver turning left do do so safely, since he is turning in front of oncoming traffic. Check the highway traffic act where your from. In court the officer usual shows up since he issued the ticket, along with the other driver and the witness, if none of them show, you usually get off the charges.

    Hi I have a 2002 C2, 6 speed with the M490 sound system. Does someone have the wiring diagram for this system? I am keeping the Becker CDR-220 I just purchased Focal K2's to use in the dash and Focal 100Ca1 for the rear. Planning to get Focal 13KS for the doors. Where should I mount the crossovers for the K2's? If it is mounted in the trunk, do I need to run new wiring to the crossover to the dash speakers or do I use existing wiring. How good is the stock amp? is it worthwhile to upgrade? Do they make pigtails for this system so I don't have to start splicing wire? Thanks

    Hi Loren I have a 2002 996 C2, Is the window a common issue with these cars, I have 55K's on this car, should I pick up of these as a spare to have on hand if this decides to go on me, on day? Is this part interchangable between passenger and driver side? Thanks

    I'm thinking of putting Sport Cats on a 2002 996 C2 with 3.6 6 speed What is the difference between 100/200/400 cel cats, is one manufaturer better than another? Recommendations? Thanks
