  1. Thanks, Its not the coolant level or the temp because both are fine. I had them replace the coolant the tank and cap. and the tank level sensor. Where exactly can i find these sensors you mentioned? I have noticed my fan sometimes stays on for a while after I shut off my car. Also i put the code scanner and there are no codes.

    its a slow blink with no pointer so im assuming its either 1 or 2 that Loren mentioned on the link. Where can i find the engine compartmet sensors? My fans do stay on for a little while after i shut off the car even though the temp is at 180

  2. I have a 1999 Porsche carrera manual. My Temp / Coolant light keeps flashing when I drive the car hard. I had the dealer replace the coolant expansion tank with the updated model as well as a new expansion tank level sensor.. I also had them replace the coolant with the correct brand. The car goes a little over 180 on the guage so its not running hot.. Any help would be appreciated thanks... Someone did mention i might have a bad cluster?

  3. I have a 1999 Carrera Coupe 6 spd.. Its the second time my crank has failed the first time we were able to replace the bearings. This time it was actually cheaper to just replace the engine. I got a good deal on a 2000 engine. My question is is this a straight swap? I noticed the Throttle Body is drive by wire on 2000 Mine is cable. Do i just replace that part with my old one? Computer updates? Anything else I should know when going from a 1999 to a 2000 engine? The 2000 engine is a complete engine with all accessories. Thanks in advance.

  4. Thanks for all your help guys.. Still havent figured it out. I put both old bulbs so its not a bulb mismatch the only thing that changed was the light assembly as it cracked when i had the accident. I attached the picture its a bad example but the left light is a yellow tint you cant notice in the pic as much as in person I took the picture with my phone. Its weird because both bulbs are the old ones they should match

  5. yea whats strange though is that i put back both old bulbs and theres still a big difference. remember one entire lamp accembly was changed due to the accidient but i put the old bulbs in so they should match one thing i did notice is that the new headlight has alot of light around the ring wereas the old light has none. ill try to take some pics it will be easyier to show then explain

  6. Thanks for your help. The problem was the regualtor the part that has the cables. The Engine was fine. Part was about 220 dollars and it took me 45 minutes from start to finish. Very easy swap as long as you remember to mark the window before you remove it. Also on my car I had to remove two stopers from the bottom of the rail so the window goes all the way down. But it was very easy

  7. Thanks Everyone. So the GT3 style front bumper is just a regular Aero 1 bumper? Does anyone know what the part number is for a 99 Coupe? Thanks Also is it a direct bolt on or do i need a kit? Thanks again. I just dont trust them so I want to be well informed.

    Also: I know this is a matter of personal taste but Now that im replaceing the front bumper should i got with a different style like maybe a turbo bumper ect?

  8. Hope you guys an help. I got into a fender bender this week. sucks :( I need to replace my front bumper. I have a 1999 Porsche carrera coupe. It has the full GT3 Kit on it. The dealer can only find oem parts for the car since 1999 didnt have the gt3 they cannot get the part. Can someome help me find a GT3 part number and location were I can buy it? Keep in mind its a regular 996 1999 with a GT3 bumper. I would also need any additional mountion hardware for the conversion. Thanks

  9. I have a 1999 Coupe. My power window on the passengers side started making a griding sound. I removed the door panel and checked but i couldnt see anything wrong all the cables and pullies looked fine. Two days later I put the window down and now I had to put it up manually Still making a grinding sound. Is that a problem with the pullies or the engine? Can i replace just the gears? And were can i find the parts. Thanks once again.

  10. Thank you i was starting to panic. Ive worked on many cars but never on porsche well at least nothing big. These cars do not have sparkplug cables correct? The spark plug is connected directly to the coil. As far as loose connections what could i check isnt the coil bolted down? Maybe its cracked as you mentioned. Do I have to replace all of them or just the failed one. Are the coils expensive? Last question what is the best spark plug for this car in case i replace them? Thanks for the quick response and happy holidays.

  11. Hello, I have a 1999 porsche 911 coupe. 6speed. Has 65,000 miles. I went on vacation last week so the car sat for about 1 week. When I drove off I noticed the car would hesitate at around 1500-3000 rmp mostly on 1st and 2nd gear but it also jumps a little on 6 gear. If you give it a little gas you cant tell. The car doesnt do it all the time but i dont want to break anything. The only error code i got was P1313. What are the troubleshooting steps for this? Times are tough so im going to try to fix this myself. Any help would be greatly apprciated.

  12. I have a 2000 cab 6spd I had a bad down**** and over reved a little last week.. The car runs fine but ive noticed that when i start the car in the morning it makes a taping sound for about 2 seconds then it goes away. Oil level is fine. Just wondering if i tore something up.. Any suggestions or is this ok.. It only makes the sound for about 2 seconds if that then it goes away.. Temp is fine car runs good
