Post purchase issues
Hello all,
Just bought an 88 911 Coupe with 75k miles Couple issues; 1- Original shift knob spins around 2- Windshield leaks, when I go down a hill it rattles so I know something is not right. I'm guessing just replacing the seal will help?? 3- When I turn on blower and ac I hear the sound of it but nothing comes through the vents.. Anyone got suggestions? Thanks, |

On shift knob pop off center plug (part that has shift pattern) and tighten bolt.
Probably does need new seal. Look in smugglers box and make sur duct is connected or not collapsed

But when I accessed the smugglers box I found this...WTF.... ![]() ![]() |

That's a monster!!! RUN!!!
No, that's normal, that is insulation to help one of the sensors (for lack of a better more basic term) from reading outside temperatures.
