#29 of 86 Voltmeter fluctuates on 924 by ddijamco Feb 25, 2008 (10:10 pm)
On my 1977 Porsche, sometimes the voltmeter needle goes all the way to the right and the all the light becomes very bright. I took the car to an automotive store to have the alternator tested and I was told that the alternator is charging ok. What could be the problem?

Replying to: ddijamco (Feb 25, 2008 10:10 pm) It sounds to me like the Voltage regulator has failed or is failing. This CAN cause the alternator to overcharge. This can be a bad thing as it can damage your battery. It shouldn't be too expensive. It's external from the alternator (I believe) in the older Porsches.

My husband just put a deposit on a 2007 Porsche Carrera S with 4305 miles.... Can anyone out there let me know whether $97,495 seems to be a good deal or not? Replies to this message: porschetech911 (Mar 16, 2008 4:16 pm)

Replying to: thomasst (Mar 01, 2008 6:34 am) For a 911 as new as that yes, that is a reasonable price. You could maybe get it about a thousand less because of the miles, but your doin good. Enjoy the car. Any problems feel free to email me with questions!
#34 of 86 Replacing the front carpeting of a 1985 944 by pitboss29 Mar 17, 2008 (1:33 pm)
I have recently begun the lovely and exciting idea (what the hell was I thinking) of restoring my 1985 944. Everything has gone pretty well until I have just recently hit a spot that I am stuck. I am removing all of my carpeting and replacing with new. now all of it is out except the very front where the driver and passenger legs go this seems to be a major pain in the *%#. I would greatly appreciate anybody who could help and if possible step by step instructions for this removal and install. Thanks, pitboss29 Replies to this message: porschetech911 (Mar 17, 2008 10:53 pm) todd82ta (Mar 18, 2008 4:40 am)

Replying to: pitboss29 (Mar 17, 2008 1:33 pm) Hi Pitboss! You'll need to remove the dash. I know, it sounds like a huge pain in the ass, but there's almost nothing to the Porsche 944, even the 85.5+ models. There are a couple of 10mm bolts holding it down under the dash, and then near the tops under the dash. I think it's five 10mm bolts all together. I don't believe your 85.5 (does it have the new interior?) uses a speedometer cable, but if it does, you just need to remove that. Everything else should be able to lift up. You can then access the carpeting. It's easier to re-install the carpet this way too.
