  1. Bad day today ran over something in the road in the dark and trashed the tyre but also damaged the Mudguard trim on the drivers side

    Does anyone know what this is actually called and a part number

    Does anyone have one available?

  2. 986 failed its MOT on emmisions

    I had picked up on my Durametic before the MOT that the banks 1 post cat lambda sensor need to be changed

    I actually changed the Cat on bank 1 and the pre and post Lambda sensors

    Due to circumstances I had not done many miles before the MOT 40-50 miles only

    I have now checked again on the Durametic and I do not have any fault codes and on the live data it appears to be ok

    I have recently Cleaned the MAF sensor just as part of routine mainteneance

    Does anyone have any suggestions on what the problem may be before I go for Bank 2 cat and Lambda sensors replacement??

  3. Earlier this year I did a full suspension rebuild all corners came off and when it all went back together I fitted 

    New disks Pads and shoes

    It is a tiptronic so to be honest I don't use the handbrake normally I put it into park

     

    I have adjusted the handbrake and it appears to be working on jacks and I cant push the wheel round but on the road the handbrake is not holding

    Unless anyone has a bright Idea I am going to strip them down again to double check

     

  4. Having a problem with the hand brake on the 986 

    I have fully serviced the brakes and adjusted the hand brake as detailed in the service manual and I have managed to get it onto the the MOT rolling road but I can not get a positive test as had as I try to apply the hand brake i can only show a very small response on the machine...not enough to get a pass

    Any suggestions

  5. So  for a while I have had a few issues with my car where the 4 light only was flashing  normally when I started the car cold and after 10 mins and upto temperature it would go off

    Now I am getting the flashing D&4 lights and  the tiptronic is not performing correctly

    If I put it on the Durametric software I get P0706 upshift/downshift switch

    if I clear the fault code tiptronic work fine no problems for the rest of the day next morning I then have the same problem

    First gear shift is a bit lumpy and not as smooth

     

    Any suggestions could it just be the Gear Selector Multi Plug Switch
