Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

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.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Since the last week my 2001 996 C2 with 32K miles have a problem: when acelerating over 5.000 rpm the light PSM OFF and ABS OFF goes on and effectively the two systems are off. Stopping the engine and starting it again restet the situation untill the next strong aceleration. Any idea? Thanks. Migration info. Legacy thread was 16867

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just back from the OPC where they charge me Euro 368,00 (£. 250,00) to change the DME (air control device) but the problem still remain and the test shows that the DME is still not working. The OPC do not have an other DME to put on (incredible!) so I paid for nothing. I really think to sell my 996 soon as this device (DME) is smaller then a sigarette box but cost more then 300 euro and they charge to me 48 euro just to put it on (takes about two minutes). Porsche really is far away from custumers satisfation and is always closer to Audi very poor quality. I will go for a Jaguar or BMW soon unless I will find a better OPC (if any) in Milan.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The problem has been solved by a new DME (the previos one installed even new was not working). The total cost is Euro 368,50 including VAT and now the car seems ok. I hope this suggestion will help somebody else if a similar problem arise (PSM and ASB off light on when over 5K rpm). Migration info. Legacy thread was 17257
