What did you do to your 996TT today?
#2866
I've been busy with my 996tt. Per a few DIY write-ups I found here, I popped off the accelerator pedal box and cleaned the moving parts. The throttle was noticeably sticky, especially driving around town. I pulled it off, pulled it apart, and after some cleaning with some rubbing alcohol and lithium grease; it's all back together and smooth as the day she left Stuttgart.
I also ordered up a set of Continental ExtremeContact DW tires. The mis-matched set on mine weren't great, especially the Yokohama fronts. I really wanted some Michelin PSSes, but the rears are back ordered for another few weeks. The Contis had a rebate and had a great price. I figure I can run them this winter and if I hate them, I'll have time to order up a set of MPSSes for spring.
Next, I need to see about getting the heating element replaced in the driver's seat. I think it went out last week.

Detailed it before winter (technically it was last Sunday but forgot to post pics)
Bought a GT3 alcantara shift ****. Will be wrapping the whole ebrake, arm rest, and steering wheel in the same color combo.

My fuel door hinge has been broken since the day I bought the car earlier this year. I finally got around to replacing the hinge and installing a fresh hinge spring to accompany it. Fuel door now works perfectly. Not a biggie, but a niggling detail that needed attention.
