Do you have a manual trans???? That diagram is for a TIPTRONIC!!! If you have a manual trans YOu have to use gear oil.Mobil 1 80/90 or 75/90 is good stuff.A lot of people like Redline.You have to jack the car up to get to the fill and drain plugs.We always put a pint of atf in it.Helps synchronizers.You can buy a little pump that screws onto the bottle lid.If your parts store doesn't have one any boat shop will...If you have a TIP use ATF.Don't clean old filter,buy a new one.

How to you remove the round switches from the dashboard? (headlight switch, fog light, rear defroster etc.)

Thanks

ThomasC2

Just unscrew the *****, anti clock wise. Then to remove the switch itself make a tool or use something "pointy" for the two holes you see in the fixing plate behind the **** and unscrew this plate. The the switch will be loose an move inwards.

Easy when you see it in front of you.

I have a C4 with the engine and tranny out. If I pull the DME relay, am I ok to attach the battery and check a few electrical items with key in position 0 and 1? I have the AWD long and lat cylinders just hanging and I don't want the system to pressurize and barf the cylinder guts across my garage.

I would be careful. I would pull the PDAS & ABS fuses just to be safe. The DME relay disables the DME and the fuel pump. It doesn't affect the ABS/PDAS power.

Thanks for the prompt reply. Will take your advice.

New question:

Went to drive the cabrio this morning and the battery was dead. How do I wire up my multimeter to be able to measure current drain? Do I place the multimeter on amps inline (series) on either the positive or negative line?

Rocket Rob

You can use either terminal as long as the multimeter is in series.

It may be better to start with a light bulb as a test light and pull fuses one by one. Not all multimeter can handle much current.

How do you remove the handbrake button?
Mine is all mangled and I ordered a new one from PP but can't seem to unscrew the old one...

My turn...

Both left tail and brake light are out. Seems odd they would both go. Anyway,meat kind of bulb are they? Assuming I should check my fuses as well

Rocket Rob

The brake light bulbs are 1157.

As long as we are on bulbs. What size are the ones in the gauges, and who is the best source?

I want to add the C4 PDAS bulb to the dash. The green one...

Rocket Rob

There are two types of bulbs used in the instruments. One is 1.5 watts and the other is 0.9. I bought some of each from Sunset Porsche.

964-641-920-00 0.9 watts
964-631-027-90 1.5 watts
