Thanks, you are probably right, in fact they were in a bucket full of door stuff, butCan you please take a picture of the part you are referring to? I don't seem to find any screws like those in the PET diagrams for the doors or the door locks and I don't have the doors right now in my garage to check it, they are in the body shop.


Many thanks again.

Jason and John, you guys are masters, they are from there. When I reinstalled the fuel pump I now recall looking for three suitable bolts as they were not mounted in place.


Thanks!

Not a master here just took my fuel tank out a week or so ago and remembered they were long and had red paint. Will go out to garage and take picture of the part I referred to

John many thanks again, not too sure about this one, according to the PET diagram, that part is supposed to be mounted using tapping screws 3,5x13 and the screw I have are 6,3x18, I don't think they fit there but I will check. Also I am not too sure why would they take that part out in order to paint the car in a different color, if I understood it correctly that part goes inside the door frame, doesn't it?

JohnK964

yes and way easier to get out with glass out. You would have to take it out to get latch out of door shell or frame my painter recommended taking the latch out but I suppose you could tape over latch

Part 15in your diagram doesn't quite look like the part Iin my door which pet are you using

JohnK964

PET 7.3 Update 296/100 Have the rest of the updates, but everytime I start the program it says: "Error in last update, new update impossible! (PO)"


Have tried everything I could think of to fix it but run out of ideas...


What are you using?

JohnK964

I think this part 15 is cover for door lock solenoid not the cover gor the latch

me61ic

Ok, now I know why. I am getting the parts for the VIN of my car (1990), yours is more modern, it uses a different newer shape part (same as 993 cars) I just checked it and the newer part appears if you choose 1991> 964 cars

JohnK964

my car is MY91I think the door parts are same as 90s I just googled door latch for 964 Porsche and door solenoid 964 Porsche

me61ic

Sorry you are right I was looking at the wrong diagram, but still the PET says that part is held in place by a tapping screw 3,5x13 much smaller of what I have (6,3x18)

JohnK964

Part 15 in your diagram is door lock could solenoid cover the part I took picture of is the door latch cover both go inside door but I think they use same size mounting screws

JohnK964

hour right both covers use the same screw and they are small they are the only flat philips screw I have seen yet
Dude we are both correct 😎👍
