Hi Paul, Back to your issue... Next time you pull the airbox, be super careful to find the grommets the pins go into. Most of the time for me they pop out and end up in the crux of the serpintine belt and a pully! If I were to reinstall with that still there, the next start up would shatter the belt. I had a P-tech for a local dealership warm of this and he was spot on. As others have mentioned, getting it in takes about eight seconds once you get the hang of it. Hold the box as it will sit in the car, then rotate it about 100deg counter clockwise so the right end is point up and a little to the left. Then fit the round hose connection as you rotate it clockwise back to horizontal. Feel underneath that the pins are in the grommets and in the grommet holes. lock it down with that single elongaded bolt and tighten the hose clamp. Re-attach the MAF connection and you are set. if the attachment bolt won't align up easly, then it probably isn't in the grommets. Get a visual on those puppies before starting the car. I'm having a vacuum leak issue so I've had this out several times. Franny

Idle problems
Franny replied to Dan104's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
Hi Dan, Did you ever resolve your high Idle? I have an '04 996 TT with the same problem... I have completely pressure tested it and done all the cleaning as you have and I just can't seem to find the smoking gun... EleCtriCT mentioned the MAF. I bet if the TB goes bad it is pretty obvious, but maybe not. I'd love to hear your solution if you found one... Thanks, Franny -
Hi All, I know this comes up now and then, but I want to replace the plugs on my '06 S. I have had the best luck with the Bosch Platinum series and was thinking of the Platinum 2s. What is the recommended part number? I have read that some folks have trouble with the 4s. Are the plugs for the Normal and the S the same? Thoughts? Thanks! Franny
