2009 vs 2010-2011 997 C2S
Quick question: Does anyone know if there were any significant technical changes to the 997 C2S for the 2010 model year vs. the 2009 model year? Or is the 997.2 C2S effectively the same throughout the 2009-2011 run?

I Beleive 2009 the steering wheels were carry overs from 997.1 design and 2010+ were the newer design.
For PDk cars I believe 2010+ they started to come with a 3rd radiator as standard.
All major components are identical with no significant changes.

Did not know about the 3rd radiator... is it for the engine coolant or for the PDK?

Pretty sure the third radiator is 2011+ not 2010+.
Likely won't do much unless tracking hard. Also, IIRC, it is possible to retrofit into the 09 and 10 cars.

The hold over steering wheels in 2009 were for manual cars only. PDK cars, of course, had the updated wheels in 2009.
I may be mistaken but IIRC the 3rd radiator as standard was only done for a year or two and then they went back to just 2.

Wiring harness difference and software difference. Eg: sport steering wheel can be installed on 09 but cannot work with the sport and sport plus lights. 2010 can work with some piwis activation
