These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

i actually have several things to discuss. One is that i want to replace my Porsche Stereo with another brand like alpine. What is required to do this? I talked with Best buy and they were trying to sell me a complete over haul of my current system to include the wiring and speakers. i just want to replace the stereo so that it is HD, Satellite and iphone compatible.
Second i am looking at replacing the poly web belt i am assuming from this fancy name this is the serpentine belt, is that correct? how much trouble is it to replace? Can i do it myself?
Third i have a built in radar detector and it is not working and i wan to replace it or repair it. does anyone know of someone who would repair one of these?
Let's do the easiest first. That would be the serpentine belt. This takes about 15 min. Buy a new one from our host. Remove the air filter box (13mm). Use a 24mm socket with breaker bar to relieve tension from the idler pulley, pull off the old belt and put on the new. Take a picture of the way the belt goes over all of the pulleys before you remove the old one. Here is a link to the complete procedure from the RennTech 996 web site (you may need to become a member to access this):

No comment on the radar detector.
Good luck!
If it's the version with lights peeking through the console carpet, look for the control knob. It's usually on the right side of the console. Might be turned off or has a blown fuse.
88carrera is correct re: your audio system. If the head unit is a Becker ("Porsche") CDR023, then it is an all MOST fibre-optic system.....even from the amp to the speakers. If you don't have a CD Changer, there are MOST add-ons that take care of iPod/iPhone connectivity. They use the unused CD Changer connectivity port.
