Reported cause
Don't forget to check the battery too - recent posts about no start with electrical power and it was the battery at fault.
Leading evidence: 'battery at fault' (1 discussions report identifying this cause; no attributable repair resolution).

Suggestion · Original poster
Can anyone recommend where to get a good deal on oem mats, or recommend aftermarket ones if they're better?

Every now and then I'll put the key in, turn to crank and the electricals will all start up, itll run the fluid check, etc, but the engine doesnt do anything.
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.

Can anyone recommend where to get a good deal on oem mats, or recommend aftermarket ones if they're better? I think the actual name of my interior is "Natural Brown", so I'd probably prefer that color. Im indifferent on if it comes w rears or not as I dont plan to have people back there frequently.
I just bought a set of new natural brown floormats for my car. I went with OEM mats, directly from Porsche. Sunset Imports has good prices.
I know there are several aftermarket brands as well, but I haven't had any experience with them.
what color do you want? I have a brand new set of tequipment (oem from dealer) savanna front and rears I have been thinking about letting go (I think I want black mats)
PM me if interested - they are about $120 new, I would let them go for much less...?
What color is savanna? Not sure how well that would match. I cant decide if I want exact matching or black, im trying to find pics of each to see what I prefer
Zookie - Any idea if I would also go with the boxster ones if I just wanted fronts? It says for carrera coupes, so not sure if theyre different than the cabs.
I like Lloyds floor mats. I've used them in my Vettes for years. Just got new mats for my Targa delivered yesterday, but didn't get a chance to open the box and instal them yet...maybe this evening.
Here's a link to the website where I ordered them.

http://www.buycarfloormats.com/
It's a sister site to Southerncarparts.com, a Vette parts and pieces website.
I dunno, there's something really nice about black floormats in the beige interior.... One of my personal favorites.... worth considering IMHO.
Almost forgot, black stays a LOT cleaner, too - just shake 'em out.
that's where I am heading, plus I already have black seats !!
is that his car - pics from the ad where it sold? NICE - I see the missing mic cover, yup, his car
If so the little bits of silver would be enhanced with some aluminum pedals too
The car I recently purchased has a natural interior with black Lloyds mats (the og natural mats came with it as well). Here is what they look like, though these pictures don't capture the true interior color well:
It's hard to see in these pictures, but there is Porsche embroidery on each mat.
WOW - to the OP.... You could hop yours up to this in nothing flat... guage rings, pedals and black mats
IMO that looks AWSOME !!! Thanks for the pics !!
Well I think all the pics sold me on the black floor mats. I was thinking about it last night driving home and the pictures just verified it. I really like that look w the aluminum rings and pedals too. Guess Its already time to start buying more toys for the new toy!
..I think I need that ignition switch too. i have to go search the forum but it's either that or the clutch safety switch (improper name?)
Every now and then I'll put the key in, turn to crank and the electricals will all start up, itll run the fluid check, etc, but the engine doesnt do anything. I think I saw a thread a day or two ago about a similar symptom and those seemed to be the 2 things to look at. Clutch was just done so I'll check that sensor first.
yup - or ignition switch, they are suspect. IIRC some people say its a 10 minute job and I think the new switch is fairly cheap... FWIW

By the way, I realy like your avatar

Well that's good news. I'll have to troubleshoot more over the weekend. 90% of the time its fine, but there are the random time or two it takes a second or third try. And thanks!
Oh, btw, where can I find those rings and pedals? I really am loving them.
For those of us that live in harsher, muckier climates - any thoughts on rubber mats as opposed to the carpeted ones? Do they make OEM rubber mats? You can write off my ignorance in asking this question to newbie-ism
I bought the black LLoyds front only (Boxster set) with silver Carrera embroidered (there a bunch of choices, if you go LLoyds), from Sunset. They had the best price, even with S&H. The attachment method of the LLoyds is better than OE, and the mats are a better material and construction, by far.
