  1. Is this vibration you are talking about at 3500 rpm? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It has the vibration even if I push the clutch in and let it idle and coast.
  2. I purchased my 2000 Boxster S with 16,500 miles on it 7 months ago. It now has 20,000 miles on it. It has a slight vibration that feels like it is coming from the rear end. You feel it in the seat of your pants, not the steering wheel. You notice it at speeds as low as 25 mph. It doesn't get any better or worse with speed. My local Porsche dealer doesn't have any tire equipment so they sent me to a local tire shop. They road force balanced my tires using their Hunter 9700 machine, software revision 4.3. All of the tires could be perfectly balanced, were not out of round and were true. The front right tire had a road force reading of 30 lbs. I was told. He said I might feel some vibration through the steering wheel. The car is now no better. I was out of town for 4 days and left the car at the dealer. I told them I had the tires balanced by the shop they recommended. When I returned, they never put the car on a lift, they were only concerned about the tire balance. Could this problem be some type of engine/trans mount, CV joint or suspension problem. It appears that my dealer is not going to put forth any effort on my car until I buy new tires. If I spend $1000 and the problem still exists, I will be furious.
  3. :D I gave the serial number to my dealer and they called me back in just a few minutes with the correct code. I guess the radio must have been changed out. Thanks for all of your help! This forum is unbelievably informative. Thanks again.
  4. I think you have it. I entered the code 3 times. Looks like I need to call the dealer, they must have given me the wrong code. Thanks!
  5. <_< I just replaced the battery in my 2000 Boxster S. A Porsche certified used car with 16,430 miles. Battery died after I have owned 10 weeks. I keep the factory charger on in while it is in the garage. Kinda makes me wonder about that 100 pt. inspection. Oh well, I entered the radio code and the unit comes up with "WAIT". It sat there doing that for over 40 minutes. I finally shut the car off and went to bed. I turned the car on this morning and it still says "WAIT", what am I supposed to do?
