996-99

I went online last week (Thursday, 5/17) and ordered the Fister D Exhaust under the exchange program. I got the confirmation email that said someone would be in touch very soon. No word yet. How long did it take you to hear back from them?

I have order mine on june 8th and received and email on july 15th telling me that it was ready. So a little more than a month. Now I am waiting for the mufflers to arrive home. You have to be patient, it's a popular mod :thumbup:

I just notice the date of you're post...I hope you have received it !!

I do that at very low speed by lifting the hand brake by just 1 click. That way when I am at a red light, the top goes up or down and car behind me don't wait even if the traffic light turn green before top as finish is cycle. :thumbup:

Thank you Dennis,

I have made up my mind...I won't have it coated. I only use my car in summer time (garage from november to march). So I don't see the necessity of doing it.

Enough talking, I'm calling Darring at FD Motorsport :)

Hi everybody,

I'm about to make modify my exhaust with the Fister mod. I know a lot of you out there have made this mod.

My question is: should I pay for the ceramic coating ? It's a $175 extra. Does it worth it? Did you took that option ?

I would like to hear you on that. Your comment or experience.

Thanks,

Mario

I just push on both "spring" on each side of the unit and pull slowly. I did not have to unplug the unit to see thé label with those numbers

More picture.

Beside changing this cable for the power seat, I also got rid of these orange side markers :D

This is only a small change but the look is 100% improve !

Here's some pic.

Finally done !!! Here in Quebec, March 15 is the first day that you can use your car without winter tires. So it's out on the sun :thumbup:

Maybe but the tip look broken. I'll have a look...

Thank you all for your advice :cheers:

I will get a new cable and it's gone be a winter project to change that cable since the car will be garage for winter time.

One more thing on my ''TO DO'' list !!!

Step one - check for an obstruction under the seat.

Thanks Loren for the fast reply :)

There is no obstruction under the seat, but I found what it look like a small plastic tube with a metal wire in it. One end of this ''tube'' is loose.

Probably a part of the problem ?

Hi, let me describe my problem.

After my wife took the car and ajdust the seat height, I can't lower the seat anymore :( . All the control work (forward/back/front tilt/backrest/lumbar support/memory 1-2) except the back, up or down button.

I can't lower the seat, it is at maximum height. I know there is power because when I push the button downward I hear the motor, but nothing move !

Any clue?

Thank you

Finally went to the Porshe dealer, 15 minutes later I had the code and listening to radio :thankyou:

From the Lost Radio code FAQ...

Can you give me a code for my PCM?

These units are manufactured jointly by Siemens and Becker, and the only place where you can get the codes required is from the dealer/OPC. The PCM's require two codes, the ICS/Siemens code and a Becker code. The ICS is the first code requested.

Sorry, the only place you can get a PCM code is from a dealer/OPC.

Thank you very much Loren, I was expecting that ...I will call my Porsche dealer.

For the slot behind the cover on my PCM...what is it ?

Mario

Thank you Loren for the info. I'm going to try that today and I will give some news.

BTW what is the slot behind the cover on the PCM ?

Mario

I was nervous about pulling off the carbon trim, but everything went OK.

There is the numbers on the stickers I found:

BECKER

Type: PCM

Model no: BE 2562

Serial no: W5001214

SIEMENS

Mlfb: 5WK7801

Serial: P08010004551/00

Is those numbers enough to find the code to make the PCM work or do I still have to go to a Porsche dealer ?

Thanks

Mario

Mario

Hi. I know that I need the serial number of the radio to have the code, but how do I remove that radio? My radio have a little cover that I can take off. Do I have to insert some tool inside that? You can see on the pictures.

My car is a '99 Carrera Cab with navi option.

Thank you

Mario
