Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

FIXED!!!! Yay!!! Victory! 🙌🏽IMG_5119.jpeg IMG_5121.jpeg Yep! The original motor was just free-wheeling. Install wasn't terribly hard. Basically, take out the center light/IR panel. Then unbolt the motor. Slide gently to the right, unplug and then pull it out of the head liner. After the sunroof mot...

Re: Back in Business

Thank you Jeff! Even though the sunroof issue is a bit annoying, the car really needs nothing, everything else works. The new sunroof motor comes in today and we'll see if that does anything. I'm also going to handle some preventive stuff (engine mounts, water pump, etc.) based on my history with t...

Re: Back in Business

Yep, can't keep a good dawg down! I'm back in the 996 business. 1999 (98 build) C4 Ocean Blue Metallic/Graphite Grey interior. 89K miles. All stock except the Alpine stereo. Surprisingly, this one has PSM. First '99 I've seen with it. Still has the original factory M96/02 engine. All passes on my D...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

BTW, if anyone is in a generous mood, I’ll take this 930 that showed up this year via a new KCRPCA member transplant from SoCal.

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

BTW, important safety tip. At least on Porsche Macans, and I suspect many other cars with electric parking breaks, if you tell the computer to "close" the parking break when the caliber is not sitting on the rotor, the computer will keep turning the damn electric motors until it spits the...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

So, the most recent Macan showed up on the transport truck at 11:00 pm last night. This is one that I'm planning to drive for the winter. One thing I liked about it was that the previous owner appeared to be an enthusiast as there were several tasteful mods done to it: carbon fiber steering with ma...
