993 factory option code question
 

I recently purchased a 1997 993 coupe with a.o. the following options:

320
616

Is there anyone who has a clue about what they are?

Thanks very much in advance,
Danny

M320 is the CR-11 radio

616 is undefined. Could be a factory code for an options package.

Thanks AFJ,

Now that 616 is the only remaining unknown code, I think it may be the electronic car theft device (don't know the exact English phrase for that). I mean: electronics built-in the key so that the key is being recognised by the car which means that the car cannot be started with a non-original key.

The car was originally delivered in Germany and I got 2 rather large keys with the car with a Porsche logo on it. The keys look original Porsche but I don't think that it was a factory option. Perhaps this option was only for the German market.

Anyway, thanks for your help.

Kind regards,
Danny

The large key with the swing out key portion is the normal key. Most 993 from 1996 had the system installed. That is option M529 or M530

There is a kit available to make the key a normal sized key and have the remote control a separate unit in a much smaller package.

Electronic car theft device = immobilizer or alarm system.

as 614 and 615 are options for the factory telephone... could 616 be another?

Does you car have a telephone option built in?

I thought of that as well, but apart from this cell phone holder (not connected to antenna or amplifier or whatsoever, it is just a holder), there is no sign of a telephone kit installed.

Immobilizer..... I just couldn't come up with that word... I am surprized to hear that most 993's from 1996 and later came with these as standard. I didn't read anything on that in the books that I have.

Anyway, thank you all for your input!
