I have recently had my head gasket replaced (which took 6 weeks!!!) but in the process the garage disconnected the battery.

I stumbled upon your kind offer to decipher the radio code using the serial #.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
14 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Unfortunately the decoding software didn't work for me.
I have recently had my head gasket replaced (which took 6 weeks!!!) but in the process the garage disconnected the battery. I was sure I still had the little card containing my radio code, but cannot find it anywhere. Further more the car was bought from JCT Leeds, I have requested on a number of occasions if they could let me have the code but after repeatedly ringing them I have given up!
Does anyone have a clue how I would decode it or recover the code??
Help would be appreciated as it is very quite in the car now. :ah:
It’s a
CDR-22
Serial X 5011379
It also quotes various other numbers like
Becker 1
Type 4467
49/98
CDP 2065
Thanks, Jason
My heart goes out to you, the only people who were ever thwarted by those codes are the owners. I don't know how many have the same code but if it helps mine is 3753 worth a shot...
If you provide the same info to Loren at:
http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?/forum/24-986-series-boxster-boxster-s/?
(be sure to follow directions at top of page), he can likely obtain the code for you.
Unfortunately the decoding software didn't work for me. I guess I'm part of that 5% that it doesn't work for. I took mine to the dealer and for $60 they got the code for me, got the stereo working gave me the code for the future and did an inspection on my one day old purchase. I know they were looking for stuff to fix, but didn't find anything. So that was a well spent $60 to me.
Hello,
