Hi, I've got my '00 Boxster S in service at the moment and they are saying that I need to change all 4 rotors because they are already at their minimum specs. The car's only done 60,000kms and haven't done any track work. Is it common to have to replace rotors so soon? I'm getting the work done at Euro Automotive Service Centre in Botany NSW Australia. Any comments/feedback on their work? I had a major done at 50,000kms at Porsche Parramatta and for some reason, Euro Auto is saying I need to change the spark plugs again. I'm just wondering who to believe... has Porsche Parramatta been doing a bad service or Euro Auto are not being truthful. Any comments? I should ask for the old rotors back so I can check what condition they are in. Thanks, dG

Thanks for the quick reply Tool Pants. I've thought to try another changer too but didn't know anyone with one so I took the car into the dealer to see what they could do. Unfortunately, that dealer did not have a spare changer and was unable to tell me if my changer was defective. I'll try another dealer but in the meantime, I've read in some forums that the dealer needs to 'activate' the changer. Is this only for fibre optic MOST systems trying to retrofit certain changers? Thanks again!

:cursing: Hi and greetings from Australia, I recently bought a Becker Silverstone 2660 off ebay to hook up to my '00 Boxster. The wires were already in the trunk so I thought it'd be an easy hook up. I wired the CD Changer up but can't seem to select that as the source on the CDR 220 head unit. I hit 'S' and it switches to CD, I hit 'S' again, it goes to FM1, I hit 'S' yet again and it goes back to CD!! I am able to eject the magazine from the changer so I know its getting some power. Though, ejecting magazines has provided much thrill, I wouldn't mind being able to select the changer and play a CD with it! So... these are the things I've tried (but didn't work): 1. Search the internet for all guides (found 2) and followed them all step by step (though I had to install on the right side of the trunk since its RHD here) 2. Posted for help on the Becker board. They told me to reset the head unit. 3. Resetted the head unit by disconnecting the power for 30 secs and then plugging it back in whilst the CD changer is connected. 4. Tried turning Aux on. It seems like some other people have had this problem in the past (found about 2 threads like this but didn't lead to a solution). I'm also curious if the ground wire actually needs to be wired up or whether its used to reduce noise. I've wired it up to the - terminal but the changer still wouldn't work. I've done a fair few systems in Jap cars so I'm not a complete n00b to all this. If anyone could help me out here, it would be much appreciated. Also, I found a program on the net that is able to give me the security code to Becker head units. It worked for mine but can't guarantee it'll work for yours. Give me the last 4 digits of the serial number if you want me to try. Please help!! dG
