Hoping the Porsche master mechanic can get it to work w/o replacing stuff.
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.

Anyone have an exploded view of the Porsche Sport Exhuast system. I have an ' 04 C2. Having issue with it not engaging- seems like it is always in quiet mode although "loud" is the default position. Going to an Indy next week who knows Pcars but not the PSE. The engagement lever seems stuck as it can't be moved. Actuator and vacuum hoses are apparently working from listening to them. Replys appreciated.

Cleaning my garage in preparation for our move and have some miscellaneous 2013 991S parts for sale.
Item #1 - Front lower deflector and rear valance. I replaced these with carbon fiber parts. Front is in excellent condition. Rear is in very good condition. I buggered up the left side during removal. If you were going to paint these, it would be an easy fix. $95.00 for both, shipped in the continental USA.
Item #2 - Factory, non-PSE exhaust system. Dealer added PSE to my car and these are all the parts they replaced, including the center console control unit. $300, shipped in the continental USA.
Item #3 - H & R Touring Lowering Springs. These are new. $150,
shipped in the continental USA.
The way the PSE works is there are two separate exhaust pipes, one has a flap which remains closed in the normal setting, which should be the default setting, when you engaged the PSE mode the actuator creates a vacuum which should open the flap creating more sound and air flow. The other way it works is if you really get on it a vacuum is created and opens the flap for a short duration. If the flap remains open then it sounds like th actuator is bad and keeping the flap open.
So take her out and get on it and see if the sound changes, if it doesn't then the flap is stuck which would indicate to me it a bad actuator or the flap is frozen in place for some reason.
Question is; did it ever work for you? Maybe the previous owner rigged it to keep it open? Also, make sure there are no loose connections.
I got the car 3 months. Everything except the PSE works properly. I had it on a lift a while back at a muffler shop & an Audi dealer and neither could move the passenger side lever (both thought it should be able to move with a hand).
Someone thought moisture in the exhaust has caused it to freeze up. Hoping the Porsche master mechanic can get it to work w/o replacing stuff.
Flagg996tt has it reversed. The default position is with the bypass pipe open for the loud mode. The vacuum valve closes this bypass pipe which forces the exhaust gas through the muffler.
