  1. 2010 RS - same issue. Front axle lift - goes up doesn't go down with button. Goes down at designated sped (40 mph I think). Porsche Platinum warranty should cover.
  2. Either Pelican or ECS Tuning has magnetic drain plugs. https://www.ecstuning.com/News/PORSCHE_996_Turbo_Service_Kits_2001_2002_2003_2004_2005/?salesrep=jcrabtree&utm_source=rennlist&utm_medium=forum&utm_content=jcrabtree&utm_campaign=newpost
  3. Charged battery. Took a long ride. Stopped and started hot 3-4 times. No problems - full crank start each time. Will get battery tested when I have a chance.
  4. The starter always engages, it just stops mid-crank (like the last crank before battery is dead). And then car starts on second - full crank.
  5. Where is the CPS located? Edit: Found picture on 6speed. Issue did not present this weekend, hot or cold. I'm going to charge battery tonight. Battery is from 11/12. Car is not driven daily.
  6. I've been having this issue - when car is hot. Sometimes starter won't crank first time, but always starts second time. I've read starter solenoid, ^ CPS, etc. anybody nailed it down further? I will check battery, connections, but I don't think that's the issue.
  7. I have a similar issue - intermittent leakage. Very small amounts. Can not view source, although the drips appear next to the inside of the rear wheels. Leaks appear after non-use. There is a thread or two on rennlist noting similar issue, and some have found that it was a loose/old hose connection. The NHSTA coolant pipe inquiry relates to sudden and complete failures that are no preceded by minor leakage.
  8. Sounds like a good year with the turbo. Just replaced my oil pressure sending unit, diverters, and solenoid brackets. Should have replaced the solenoids too - got another CEL today - didn't check it yet... thought 2013 would be the year of no CELs. :huh:
  9. Tune-up ever been done? I replaced my MAF, O2s, coils, and plugs with new at 55,000 miles. Car drives much better now. I wasn't getting any codes (but I always wasnt experiencing back-fires). Good luck
  10. I bought the X73 mounts (996.343.980.15/16). Dropping car off tomorrow for the install. :thumbup: Also had Bilstein rebuild both rear shocks. (should have done fronts too b/c of low cost to rebuild - and they're raising rates 1/1/13).
  11. Any easy way to check if bracket is broken?
  12. Going to check bracket. What about solenoid itself? Replace out of caution at same time as bracket?
  13. Im getting misfire codes - PO300 and 305. All plugs and coils and O2s were replaced within last 3000 miles. Cleared, but they returned. any ideas as to cause? Remedy?
  14. I'm getting a set of the x73 specific mounts from Sunset. Does anyone Have a complete parts list for X73?
  15. I just picked up a used X73 suspension system. Seller suggested that I could reuse top mounts. Is this possible, or should I try and get new x73 specific top mounts?
  16. WOW - awesome - mine's going in tomorrow for the slave/accumulator. It lasted only a month.
  17. This code just popped up on my 02 turbo. I showed my My nephew the engine yesterday...not sure if he stuck his hand in there. No symptoms while driving.?
  18. Good information ! I don't have anything to add to the list (knock on wood).
  19. Rear wing hydraulic failure is a known issue. Leaky radiator tank is another. There are a couple others. Nothing too major if I remember correctly. There's a couple threads on Rennlist identifying the short list of known issues. I would try to find a CPO car - Porsche USA site lists them nationally by type. Enjoy the hunt - it only took me 6 months to find mine - but its great.
  20. Simply Bad A$$. I'll take mine in red:
