I just got Fuchs wheels for my 2010 C4S (Guards Red).
Which version of the Porsche center caps did you get for yours?
Do they match the finish of the Fuchs?
Hi Edgy - I've joined the 997 club and looking to do some intercooler work on my Turbo and found your rear bumper guide. I am looking for a manual, hard to find. Perhaps you know where to find one?
Hello Edgy,
Been reading old posts about fuel starvation issues with 996/997's. I have recently acquired a very nice 2006 Carerra S cab. Was going to ask a question about the fuel system but believe I found the answer, now for the fix. Do you still own yours?
Thanks,
Rick
I think I had seen in a prior post that you had installed LED front bumper lights. Would you mind telling me what brand you purchased, and where I might find them?
Ronmart--the car is nearly at 70,000 miles! Perhaps I will hit that this week. Doing fairly well. The leather is holding up pretty well. It's nothing like the leather from years ago but it's not too bad. I have a little discoloration on one part of the steering wheel, and a reasonable amount of wrinkles on the left seat bolster. I think if I treated that area it would be fine again. Still on original spark plugs!
Just saw your post to my TPMS question - it's cool to see you are still driving your Cab - I remember very clearly when you ordered it!
How many miles do you have on it these days?
I'm at around 31k miles and <knock on wood> I've only had to do oil changes and a couple very minor warranty items. I'm still on original brakes and clutch too despite a series of track visits too!
My big expense has been tires and now potentially this TPMS issue, but otherwise it's been great.
I'm wondering how your natural leather has held up! I've been very happy with my full leather option, but I'm a leather junkie so i've been curious about your leather over the long haul. Worth the money? I had Nappa leather on my 2000 Mercedes for 11.5 years before I sold it and it was wonderful - worth every penny!
Edgy: Just a note of thanks for your post back in 3/16/09 regarding the serpentine belt and pulleys which I printed out and took to my OP . They had replaced the serpentine belt previouslyu under warranty but there was a recurrent "hollow pulley" sound when the engine was cold (went away when engine warmed up). After showing your post information, they disassembled the air box and belt and found one of the pulleys noisey. They replaced all 3 plastic pulleys and installed new serpentine belt and the car runs better than it ever has. Thanks again for this valuable information.
All the best,
Dave
P.S. While car was in shop I test drove the 991S. Nice car but I found it over the top in terms of luxury, comfort, and numbness in contrast to my '07 C4S. Didn't like the PDK (boring) compared to my M/T. So I remain a 997 stalwart devotee ;-)
