Default E37 option code?? 84 928S2

Does anyone know what E37 stands for in the option code part of the rear mounted sticker?
Already tried several resources and found the meaning of my other option codes.
Thanks in advance.

Only push the button when the sunroof is already OPEN.

IIRC, there is an interlock so it only is armed when the sunroof is opened all the way.

If a passenger asks: "what happens if you push on the unmarked portion of the rear wiper switch", open the sunroof, and say: "try it".

I add large valve cut outs because I have one the the fist production automatic tranny S2s. On these Porsche used left over 83 pistons. The later S2 VINS got the high-compression pistons.

Do you know up through what VIN? Or easier question, do you know what month your car was built?

What difference would these pistons make in the big picture?

Answer to these questions can be found in the following thread. And has pics of the deep cut pistons in a M28/22 motor.

E codes are Exclusive department stuff. Known code list is incomplete.

http://members.rennlist.com/vilhuer/options.pdf

Code for low compression engine for Sweden and Switzerland is M151. It was available in '85-86 MY. Pistons these engines used are different than what was used in early '84 S2 MY engines.

Early '84 S2 MY engines used modified leftover '80-83 MY S pistons. PET shows engine number range they were used. Its all in another thread mentioned in previous message.


Quick Reply: E37 option code?? 84 928S2
