  1. My 99' 996 C2 has a particular sound when I press the clutch, is increased when I accelerate the engine idling or running, "sounds like a old power steering pump". The clutch pressure is good. The sound look like is coming from the front side of the vehicle. What is it? And to complete it has a coolant smell in air conditioning. I check the coolant reseirvor and in fact has decreased. I checked for any leaks near engine and front bumper and nothing! It is possible the heater core? Where to check? I'll appreciate any help B) Jose
  2. One of the headlight courtesy light specifically the passenger side is not ON, I check the bulb and is okay. Before this light was ON and Off between starting the engine On and OFF now is permanent OFF. What can be the problem.
  3. Very Nice Info Thanks :D If you have more of those necessary videos let me know I'll be glad to see them.
  4. Thank you very much :D The B&M shifter shifter instructions are quite good for this. You can download them here.
  5. In which part of the workshop manual is located the removal of the center console? thanks B)
  6. Some body diagnosed with ultra ear device to detect small leaks plus if take a sneaky look thru the blower compartment you can see the evaporator oily. I did a second diagnose by using the UV refrigerant with UV light detector to confirm my self, a $20 thing.
  7. I really don't focus on only one "missing certification" as others aftermarket wheels have "less certifications" than others and people still benerate them.
  8. Got mines 2 weeks ago, they're very good. And saves you a lot $$$. I'm not promoting them but the cheapest seem to be here. http://www.wheelsandcaps.com/ also check their store @ ebay. :)
  9. They sell it as "on bolt" no need to drill or other mods. What are the Pro's and Con's?
  10. I has driving my porsche for 4 years with aftermarket wheels since I adquire the car. I just change them to 5 spoke turbo style last week and the drive is a lot way better with stock wheels. Best thing done in all this years. 99' 996 C2
  11. I was about to put another link : http://www.theshanksfamily.com/technical_info.htm {this what is approved}
  12. Hope this helps. http://www.victorequipmentwheels.com/app_guide/index.php
  13. To much different colors: car (red), calipers(yellow), and rims "black"? What next...?
  14. Someone Said on a previos topic Duralast from Autozone and I follow it, I have Two years with no problem so far. B) 996 C2 1999
  15. my recommendation is go and ask everyone on ebay who has an amplifier for sell. I got lucky that way.
  16. No, I just unmount the interior parts at home, the mechanic couldn't work at my home so I took it to his garage in the conditions you see in the first picture. The mechanic just replace the evap from the housing. For me was to much complex to work in the evap housing area. Then the dumb mechanic didn't let me mount everything on his garage for insurance purpose. Then I towed back home to finish it. Just take this as a experience. If the problem is just the evap. I don't think is relevant to get the whole housing. Pelican parts is the only one that I know that sell you evap alone as an option with good price. Don't waste your time on other brands of evap as the configuration lines in/out are different and won't fit on the housing.
  17. Hello I solve this thing almost my self. The plan was to buy the evap at pelicanparts. Dismount all you see in this pics with the workshop manual took 6 hrs, very easy. except the evap housing in which the mechanic dismounted and mounted. I replaced my self the expansion valve and dryer. Then I mount the rest back in like in 5 hrs @ home. And return for air recharge. -evap $273 -dryer $41 "may be better price at ebay" -expansion valve $33 "may be better price at ebay" -car tow round trip $200 -replace the evap from housing and put it back $400 -air recharge $200 total: $1,147 satisfaction priceless if you can dig in on the evap housing complexity and get a air recharge housing gauge system for $40 at autozone plus refrigenrant and oil you save $ 800. 996 C2
  18. I found the 18 pins plug, need to put cables and pins contacts. The plug can be requested as a sample from tycoelectronics.com part # is 1-1355350-1. About the 20 pins socket, the part # is 4-828 882-1 this somehow is restricted, call them. good luck or http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...mp;hl=amplifier ENG_CD_1355350_A1_1_.pdf 889789_mqs18p.pdf ENG_CD_828881_H1_1_.pdf
  19. Thanks, Link Corrected. Well after all that they mail me a sample. which does not come with pins just the housing to built from scratch. the small pins has to be requested from same people and assembled by your self.
