Aparently all 959's should come with the manuals in a leather wallet under the front luggauge cover,I think the one in this car is invisible!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any help gratefully received.
Cj:
If you can acquire the Porsche PET program (or electronic parts software)
there is a 959 section with all the parts listed prices etc.
there are two types of PET, one in adobe format and one as a software.
I have the software, so if desperately needed, let me know.
Type PET in search button (choose titles only) and check out the 993 PET to have an idea.
regards

I thought a post in here might be in order because i have a 993 coupe!!!!!!!!!
on the subject of pet i have pet 7.1 (the dealer software version) but thats no use for a wireing diagram!
Many thanks for all your suggestions,but a helpful 959 owner with the manual under the front lid is the best option.

Christians,

I know Porsche of Bristol (UK) near me had a 959 for many years. it was one of Dick Lovett's own cars which seemed to shuffle from Swindon to Bristol Branch showrooms over the years. I believe they had it from new and it was only sold in recent times. If you gave their Service Manager a call he may well give you some pointers? Just a thought or am I being a bit too naive to think they may help with some verbal pointers at no cost?

I'm only a short drive away, when you get her up and running I'd love to see that 959 (and the 993 come to that having just recently bought mine).
