I know it has been a long time since this post, but which row fuse #1? By left panel do you mean the one in the driver's footwell? My PCM is not responding at all after changing batter. I did touch the battery posts incorrectly for a moment and blew fuse D10 (25 amp) but replaced it and still no joy.

Carrera Wing Brake Light
M3 Defector replied to M3 Defector's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
Fantastic! Thank you!! -
Good Morning, I have an aftermarket "Carrera Wing" for the cabs and need to replace the 3rd brake light. Unfortunately, the brake light does not have any identifiers on it so I want to see if I can replace it with a factory light. Can ANYONE provide the dimensions of the "Carrera Wing" 3rd brake light???? My car is a 2000 996 C2 Cab Aero. Thanks! This will really help!! Don

Is this an RMS leak?
M3 Defector replied to M3 Defector's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
Alex, I replied to your PM, but for the benefit of the others I'll post here as well. The pictures I took were on the first day I discovered the leak. The leak actually diminished from that day forward, but I still had the RMS, clutch and IMS bearing replaced at my local independent shop. It cost me $2,400, parts and labor. My guess is that the leak started because the engine was "lugged". I let my son shift in the neighborhood and he went from 2nd to 5th. It may have significantly disturbed the seal and then the seal settled back into place. Just my guess based any unusual activity and the fact that the leak decreased significantly over time. -

Thanks for the welcome...I've been dreading a post like this. Looks pretty heavy doesn't it? I thought RMS leaks were a little smaller than that. My oil level is still perfect though. -
2000 Carrera 6 Speed... Went out on a Poker Run yesterday with the local chapter and had a blast. I jacked the car up today to take the wheels off for a good cleaning and wax and noticed an oil leak, then quickly turned to find a decent patch on the garage floor. Hadn't had any leak up until now. Does this look like an RMS?
