  1. of course i understand. different people, different problems, different wishes and for sure some strange ideas like you have explained.
  2. it was not any kind of critic, it was a observation. I see many posts in the past have lots of views, but no answer. Anyway i got answer somewhere else. the seats from 955 should fit as long as they have same features was told me. . I will see if i can get the seat out Thank you for paying attention to my post
  3. looks like this forum is dead . PITY
  4. hello everybody. bought a 957 for winter which i better didnt buy. to many issues. Some specialist / last owner / changed the batterie , but not the way it should be. screws in front of the seat did not come out , so he tried a different way. i dont what he did but he destroyed in some way the mechanism under the seat. up and down, forward backwards , everything doesnt work like it should be. I am thinking to buy a used seat and change it. My question : Is it plug and play and are the seats from 955 fitting the 957 ? Thanks a lot for your assistance
  5. which side is it ? left or right ? what is the door ? left part or right part of the picture ? is the door hanging down ? the reason is just age - usually. i had a hanging door, bought some matal plates / Chims. see video. for me it was working
  6. Hi Loren. I have to apologize. it was really the fuse . Believe me, I have checked twice before i came here to ask for help. but now i went to my garage again looking for codes. There was no communication with the seat on the right side. no power. I have changed all fuses related to the seat. Et voila. It works. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR ATTENTION !!!
  7. Thank you for answering Loren. Yes the seat is moving. forward , backwards, up and down. just the seatback is down like on the picture and not moving at all. It hit the seat behind
  8. Would like to ask your advice please . Bought some days ago a "winter" car - which i better did not. Many issues which i did not realize. Anyway, i was working under the passenger side dash board. Wet floor issue and broken blower motor resistor. When i was down there i accidently pushed the button on the side of the seat and the seatback / backrest moved down. i havent even noticed . Now its not reacting anymore. Only possible to adjust the entire seat forward / backwards - up and down but the seatback is not moving at all. Did i broke the motor ? anything else i could do wrong? i need to inspect the mechanism under the seat. but how to take the seat out in this position ? the seatback is so low that i cant grab under. Thank you very much.
  9. Sorry I just have seen your message. Is the water problem still present?
  10. Sorry, I should read more carefully. i guess the reason is your work on the electric/ can bus. can you go back and try it again with the original wiring?!
  11. air hose. Feeding your compressor for air suspension.
  12. Did you check the wiring going to the coils? High temperature makes them really brittle
  13. Just want to report the end of the story. Replacing the fuel pump didn’t change anything. Only after getting a new fuel filter the codes disappeared. No more blowing fuses. Everything ok. Car passed the emission test. Very happy. Actually not very difficult this job. Lots of DIY reports everywhere. Just it’s a mess to work inside a fuel tank. Thank you for following and supporting
  14. Hi, just read your post. Having the same problem. Could you explain please how you solved it. Tank you
  15. Codes solved Just want to report the current situation - i have changed pump driver side / codes remain - i have changed the fuel filter / codes gone. tank fuel with 60 liters. Fuses ok. Car runs. No codes. just a very high fuel consumption on the display. what could it be? O2 sensors mass air flow sensors thank you
  16. My best regards to belgium . Thank you. I have seen your post before. Still in process to discover where the wiring is going along. Will report what i found out. thinking if it makes sense to install the new fuel filter before i continue with the wiring. A clogged filter can cause this fuse problem too - a Porsche mechanic told me
  17. Thank you for your feedback. Iwill let you know how this story is developing
  18. thank you Loren. Is the fuel pump powered by this connection? can i find a wiring diagram , better would be a overview where the wires are going along from pump to relay / fuse box. thank you and excuse that i take your time.
  19. I have tried a lot today but unfortunately without luck. Can do whatever, fuse number 13 gets always burned. To much power there. Open the plastic cover to get access to the DME. Cleaned the contacts. Without luck
  20. Thank you Loren. Many possibilities. Fuse and relay are ok. Pump is new now. dont know where to start to look now
  21. Hello everybody. the original post is already old but maybe my current problem is related with this one discussed here. bought a Turbo some weeks ago. Looks very good . Just one problem. P0230 Code i though, worst what could be. New fuel pump. But its something else. like to explain what i found out / what i did. car runs good and i couldnt feel any loss of power Had a emission test to do - failed code 0230 checked the fuse box Fuse13 was not existing Fuse 14 was installed car runs only on one pump when i put in fuse 14 the car starts to shake and dies after some time checked the relays and replaced them no change Because i was pointed by the code 0230 to the left / driver side pump i open the tank fuel tank left side almost empty couldnt see any visual problem with the lines. closed the tank. just to check i pull in again fuse 13 car runs. Runs even 2 km to the next gas station filled up the tank with about 60 Liters started the car after 100 meters stutter and dead pulled fuse13 car runs without problem today i have changed the left side / driver side fuel pump. Fuel tank almost empty. put everything back together was hoping everything would be fine put back fuse 13 car is starting but died after some time take out fuse 13 , car runs without problems. any help is very welcome. Dont know what to do now. Which wiring to check for the problem wondering why one week ago the car was running with both fuses inside until i filled it up sorry for the long story! thank you very much in advance
