She’s beautiful. Inspires me to continue the work on restoring my ‘06 330ci ZHP 6-speed with 125.5K miles that has retired from daily driving duties. Had it since 08/2012 and 62K miles and it was love at first drive.
I still cannot figure out what the piece you are referring to that you removed with the needle noise pliers to release the metal rod. Please help. Thank you
@@pablos3563 We've got an inside track that reading is coming back big in 2022. In fact, I believe we are reading these comments now. Anyways, we'll keep articles, photos, and videos coming as the opportunities permit. Thanks for checking out the site!
That's amazing. I checked the Rennlist "ultimate coding" thread on the 958s to see if anyone had done it yet, but couldn't find a great answer. As these cars age, I would much prefer the window shades couldn't be activated.
@@revolvinggarage380 I was preparing to repair it but my SA mentioned they had the ability to do so. The programming is for the pair, you cannot disable individually which didn’t matter to me.
+1. .. Agreed, the Metzger flat-six turbo is a keeper. Signed, a '98 Carrera S coupe original owner. .. A Metzger 911 has ist's privileges ... Cheers, M/S
The DIY linked from my article has a pretty good walk through. The article I created was meant to by sort of an overlay - the little things that the DIY missed that I found helpful when tackling the second window shade. Good luck!
Nice vid indeed. Porsche 996 Turbo Looks stunning and sharp. The best of the old and new. Love the racing Le Mans design and with the great Mezger engine. The awesome everyday drivers all weather Urban Icon.
Thanks. I love the design cues to the Le Mans winning GT1 cars, like the headlights, tail lights, and roof line (and of course the Mezger!). I think cars of this era are a fantastic way to get the feel and experience of cars of an earlier time, while still being very usable in everyday life and on modern roads.
Indeed the original unit was "free" with the car, but the first OE replacement (which eventually failed) was hardly free. North of $3k, actually! The RennKit is expensive no doubt, but cheaper than replacing with a new OE unit which is destined for yet another failure!
The DIY referenced in the article covers this. Simply, if the shade needs calibration, hold the switch up. Once the shade is at the target height click the window switch down to stop it.
