Gauge issues
#16
the problem is a srs module error detection when the seat belt light, airbag light, and "!" light are all on. the oil pressure gauge being faulty is its own issue. to fix the 3 lights that stay on you have 3 options. option 1: take it to a porsche dealer and see if they can clear the fault code using a reset tool, option 2: find the orange srs module located behind the passenger glove box unplug the 7 pin connecter and jump pin 3 to 4 on the car side of the harness leaving the plugs unplugged. option 3: on the same plug found in option 2 cut the pin 5 and 7 wires but leave it plugged in after they are cut.

it takes about 4~5 used 944T engines to go half the distance of 1 decent used V8.
wish it weren't so.
even if he thinks 600 hp is better, i'd be thrilled to drive a 325 hp Rogue 3.0 that could run 200,000~300,000 miles before burping a rod.
would be sick for serious highway cruising, twisties, etc......
the beleaguered 944T has ruined so many lives... well, it's like a sick joke, but
who can resist showing up for another *train wreck; watching engines grenade/mass casualties etc... ????
* Just a bad joke. I'm sorry. Awful. It's a miserable day and that was some kind of totally sick-joke
defense mechanism which does not indicate any of my feelings -- not one -- but just shows the kind of
stress this represents for all of us.... nobody wants to hear about any more explosions.
