I just bought a 2006 Carrera 4. It saying PCM on the original bill of sale... does that mean I have navigation? When I press the NAV button it is saying NAV is not available. I think the DVD might be missing and I know I can buy them on Ebay, but where is the actual DVD slot. I downloaded the PCM 2.1 manual but the information is very limited and it doesn't tell me where the actual DVD player is located.  Where is the DVD player?

Sorry I still can't find. I have a Carrera 4 (2006), and it appears that the location of the DVD player is different compared to the regular Carrera. I am reading on page 151 all it is saying that the DVD drive for navigation are on the rear wall of the luggage compartment, but it doesn't tell me how to access and the illustration next to it doesn't tell me exactly where it is on the wall. I have opened every compartment and lid I can find from the battery down the tools compartment.  If somebody that has a Carrera 4 or 4S could help me where and how to access the DV Player for navigation that would be great.

As far as I can see you do not have navigation, the DVD player should be mounted vertically next to the box you have highlighted which is the amplifier box for the audio system.

If I could paste a picture here I would but I cannot find how the h*ll to do it!

The navigation dvd-box is situated right above what you have cirkled - behind the fancy plastic-cover, which you just pull, just above. At least it is on mine, which is a 4S/2006, so probably the same.

Would post a pic if I new how - but I'm sure you can figure it out without the pic.

      Blinking airbag light on dashboard
      By bau911
      Hi,
      i have a problem, my 997 Turbo has a fault in the airbag system. I changed the front right airbag sensor, must have done something stupid with my Piwis 2 Tester, because now the airbag warning light on the dash is blinking. Does anyone know what’s wrong?
       
      thanks Peter

      997 Repair Manual
      By Jimbowne
      Does anyone know where to buy a service manual for the 997.1 Carrera? I cannot find one. I have seen a 996 manual from Bentley manuals, and there are many similarities between the 996 and 997- but there are notable differences, too.
       
      Thanks,
      Jim

      997.1 C4 Clutch Slip, looking for clutch/flywheel kit
      By Jimbowne
      Hello all,
       
      I've got a 2008 997 C4 w/ 56k miles on it. It was cold this morning (30 degrees F) and I noticed clutch slip for the first time since I bought the car in higher gears under full throttle. The clutch pedal feels very mushy and lost alot of its spring on the return. I stopped by my local shop and he confirmed its the clutch.
       
      The car is my daily driver but I do autocross about once a month and intend to track in the future. I told myself I'd get the light weight flywheel when its time to replace the clutch, and so it seems that time has come. I'm not adverse to the extra noise of the LWFW, but I've heard that you shouldn't do this mod on a C4. I see sharkwerks has a C4 project car with the LWFW so I assume it worked out, but who knows.
       
      Aside from the flywheel obviously I need a clutch. I've been looking at the Sachs stage 2.5 performance clutch kit, and it seems like a good option. I've also heard that the BBI clutch slave cylinder is an upgrade that would be helpful for clutch performance and feel.
       
      Questions:
      -Anyone have any experience with a LWFW on a C4?
      -Anyone have any experience with the Sach's stage 2.5 kit on a C4?
      -Any other clutch kit recommendations?
      -Anyone have any experience with replacing the clutch slave cylinder?
       
      Note: I'm going to get my IMS bearing inspected but if its not leaking I think I'm going to pass, seeing how I have 56k miles on it with no issues. Perhaps its past the infant mortality stage?
       
      Thanks,

      Intermittent static through speakers
      By Alexis Pelezo
      I have an intermittent static issue. It seems to originate from my center speaker near the clock on my dashboard. When the suspension is lowered it it more prevalent but it also happens before I even start my car. There could be weeks between hearing it and other times it will go on for hours. I suspect I have a loose wire in the amplifier? Is this an issue anyone else has ran into?
