Hi Guys Any step by step DIY for the procedure? Thx -
I personally changed my battery on 2005 997 Carrera with PCM 2.1 and it did not ask me for any code.. battery was removed for 10 minutes only..
-
PM me
-
IMO it should be fine... No need to purchase a new one..
-
Could it be that the bumper was removed and replaced? Then this would make sense...

Anyone using Mobil1 5w50?
grbeiz replied to butzi65's topic in 997-1 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 2S, Carrera 4S)
5w50 has been ok on my 993 and my 997 for a few years now... -
I would suggest to contact Porsche directly and have all the info available.. Invoices ,etc...
-
I would say until gauges of oil and water reach normal working temps.. This is the safest way.. 1/3 mile is a relatively short distance especially in cold weather
-
If you think its water, I would place the car in a hermetically closed space and have a dehumidifier work in for a couple of days.. Dont forget to open up all doors and hoods.. I know this is not the wisest think to do, however I would give it a shot before going to the dealer
-
I would not sleep on it though...Could lead to other complications

speedo error
grbeiz replied to E type Mike's topic in 997-1 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 2S, Carrera 4S)
This is common with most commercial cars.. designed to protect you as was earlier suggested.. -
Too bad Mike you had to go through this series of misadventures.. But its all worth it in the end. have a great time with your car.. I am sure it's worth it..

Waxing Killed My Car
grbeiz replied to Skibum's topic in 997-1 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 2S, Carrera 4S)
Skibum, did you wax the car manually? or with a rotating waxer? -
To my knowledge Porsche offers extended warranties globally.. It is quite costly though 2000 USD/year if car is less than 8 years old.. covers everything mechanical and eletrical except parts that are wearable....ex clutch etc... I purchased one last year for this price for my 05' 997 ... I will not renew it though this year...
