    I think the Porsche workshop manuals exist on the Porsche PPN website that is accessible with a Porsche issued PIWIS or PPN membership. Ive been able to get the 95B 2014-2018 Porsche WSM as well as the 3rd party WSM. Each is about 6000 pages but I also have the Diagnostic, Wiring, TSBs and other materials direct from Porsche adding another couple thousand pages...

    Is it possible to set the TPMS warning to a pressure below 27lbs?

    Last weekend I was at Sebring for HPDE and my clutch started slipping Its fine for daily driving currently but it's time to replace clutch and probably the flywheel this tine ( didnt change it at 90k miles last time and Im at 197k miles). Im thinking of getting a midweight ( aprox 18 lbs instead of OE 40lbs) flywheel. Anyone have experience or knowledge about it? I understand it should allow the engine to accelerate faster but causes the transmissionnto make ticking noise at idle. The car is a 2004 996TT cabriolet that is stock except for the PCCM+ I installed 2 years ago and the GT2 no clutch assist.

    I just bought the same car ( "17 Macan GTS) and am interested in the Mods4cars module. I also saw a post from last year on an alternative Porsche forum about Mods4cars offering group buy discounts, even for persons ordering separately for any Porsche module 10% for 10 units, 15% for 20, and 20% for 20 or more units. If there is an interest here I can contact the company to inquire about reviving the offer for members here.

    One must be in Developer or Engineering mode to deactivate thise features.

    I went to a top end auto stereo installer and they installed mine in my 04 996TT ( and I know a few prior) for $450. They used the existing GPS antenna I purchased a siriusxm tuner and had that installed but not activated as well. They did have to install the SiriusXM antenna. Hope that helps. I do ha ea question.. now that I can't use the CD changer what is the proper way to copy my CDs to the micro SD card?

    I installed the PCCM+ in my 04 996TT Cab and it's a nice improvement. I agree with above comments that the volume does seem reduced fromnthe original Porsche PCM but that's ok. 1 do have 2 questions. 1) what is the firmware update info or TSB to correct the trip odometer issue? And 2) is there a way to trick the radio to think thebcar is not moving so nav input or Bluetooth connections may be made ( ofcourse by passenger!!!) while driving?

    Thank you. Just to clarify... The language is set to English but it is nteresting these specific fault messages were in German. And thank you to your wife, however when I use development/engineering mode ( which displays messages in German ) I just use my Google translate app.

    A friend of mine has 991.2 and was having an issue with rear camera and rear parking sensors. I scanned the car with my PIWIS 3 and got the following attached error message. Recommendations please
  10. Porschelibrarian
    I have a PIWIS 3 which is the current Porsche diagnostic computer.
  11. Porschelibrarian
    I am looking for information on DIY fluid replacement on 2018 991.2 for PDCC, PDK, and All wheel control box. Thank yop
  12. Porschelibrarian
    What about a multifunction steering wheel in a 996 with the newer PCCM+ system?
  13. Porschelibrarian
    Thank you, however, there is no horn or connector on either side of the battery or in frunk area infront of the windsheild.
  14. Porschelibrarian
    Here is similar photo from the car. Please note the harness doesn't have connector for the horn.
  15. Porschelibrarian
    I agree but this one has different alarm module and no alarm near the battery
  16. Porschelibrarian
    Trying to help a friend...he has a 2004 boxster with M525 alarm ( not usual M535 alarm in most US models) Where is the alarm horn located? It is not in the front trunk by the battery. Car keeps popping alarm fuses
  17. Porschelibrarian
    What about adding the steering wheel with radio controls? I have a 2010 997.2 S with sand beige interior. I would like to uograde to the radio controls on the steering wheel. I've only seen Cayenne/Panamera steering wheels in Beige with the controls. Is it the same size and will it work ( I know I will also need the control module and connections to the radio)
  18. Porschelibrarian
    Its the subwoofr that keeps producing sound and the other speakers that shut off. However, I will take the cover orr and check the connections and the amp that I believe is located just below the subwoofer.
  19. Porschelibrarian
    He has a PIWIS 3 with ACTIA VCI ( actual Porsche PT3G-2 )
  20. Porschelibrarian
    Ok happened a few more times and checked and when sound is muffled its ionly coming from the subwoofer...
  21. Porschelibrarian
    I have a 997.2 with Bose PCM system and about once a month I'll start the car and the radio sounds very muffled. Then next time I start the car it's fine for another few weeks
  22. Porschelibrarian
    I am trying to help a friend with my PIWIS 3 as he is having an issue with his 2019 GT3 RS and cant find the section in my PIWIS 3 41.1 to bleed to coolant to the proper level. We've looked where it is for the 991 but it doesn't seen to come up when plugged into the GT3 RS
  23. Porschelibrarian
    Has anyone been able to make archive copy of the maps SD card?
  24. Porschelibrarian
    The Rennsport Dragon Rally is October 2st to October 23rd. I am headed up from South Florida with a few others. If you are also going from Floroda and want to meet up on Wedneaday as we drive to Atlanta or Thursday from Atlanta to Fontana NC please post or send me a PM.
  25. Porschelibrarian
    Yes I used them last year to rebuild the hydrolics on my cab and this year on the rear spoiler. Costs 1/3rd of the electric kit, 1/5th of the Porsche replacment and is 100% original look. One can have them rebuild the set a few tines before it costs the same or more than thise alternatives.
