I recently replaced the tires on my '89 911 Targa.  The shop removed the
stick-on wheel weights from the rims but left the tape/glue mess.  What is
useful in cleaning this off the rim?
Thanks in advance...

Can anyone tell me if the VR on an '87 911 is integrated into the
alternator or if it is external (and where it is)?  My battery is
getting very hot and the voltage on it while the car is running is 18
- 20v.  I'm guessing it is the VR but can't find it.

Hi to the group.
I've read what little I've see here and elsewhere.  I figure I'll have
about 10K for a downpayment soon....finance.....hmmmm.....30K...  I've
wanted a 911 for 30 years.  And now I think I can afford one.

Yesterday I got to drive a 911S for the first time time. It was a 1977 and I
must say it had much more power than I was expecting.  I couldn't believe
how loud it was either, like a race car.  What kind of power and performance
did those things have? The car wasn't modified and had ...

Hi, I just got my oil changed from a car I bought 3 months ago. The mechanic
put in 10w-30. Now I get the oil pressure lamp on when I'm at idle. Should I
replace it with 10w-40 or even higher? Am I deluded or just got screwed? The
car has 106,000 miles. Thanks, Bob

Is there a quick way to turn off the air conditioning completely

when I start the car, nothing unneccesary is running and drawing power

My 1980 911SC does not pass the NC car inspection because the high beam
indicator light does not work.  Of course it easily passes the smog test -
go figure.
Any insights to (1)removing the speedometer so I can get to the bulb,  (2)

I have a new (2003) 996 w/X50 option, 6-speed manual.  While I am very
happy with it, at highway cruising speeds in third to fifth gears around
3,000 - 3,500 rpm, the car tends to stumble or hesitate a little when
slightly depressing the accelerator or just before releasing the

I have a problem with the blower fans of my brand new (well, brand new for
me at least) 1980 911 SC.
Basically, when I move the cold air switch to the right, the blower fans do
not start. I check the fuses, and they look all right.

I have a 1986 turbo, bought new in 86 and has only 10,500 miles on
it.. we decided to take the car out and start driving it again and
suddenly the tack starts going crazy.. When I start the car.. no
problem, tack works, iddle and the tack works.. now, when I start

I am somewhat interested in purchasing a 1989 930.  Appears to be in
nice shape.  The PPI noted that the brakes are down in the 30-40%
range of pad left.  Anyone have a ballpark estimate on the price of a
front brake job, and a rear brake job?   This is more to get a sense

I have a 1977 Porsche 911S that has been sitting in my garage for the last
10 years or so.  I am contemplating using it while I wait for my regular car
to come back from major repair.  For as long as I can remember, once a year,
I would start it up, let the engine warm up, wash it, ...

I'm new to the group and have a question that's undoubtedly been asked
thousands of times before.
My car is in excellent condition with relatively low mileage (60K) and is
driven infrequently (one weekend per month).  Just recently I've experienced
