| 2012 Porsche Panamera 4 3.6L left low beam VIN: WP0AA2A76C Thanks to David, Tim, and Randy. The Durametric website clearly states coding the headlamp modules on the Panamera is not possible, or any modules for that matter. Why am I not surprised. Body shop has already picked up vehicle to take to dealer. |

| 2003 Saab 9-3 SE 2.0L No Start, Cuts out, Stall VIN: YS3DF78K63 Thank you for all the replies. In the end it was a tech with some bad testing equipment. The NEW fuel pump was bad, and the techs gauge was problematic. so we replaced the fuel pump a second time and everything worked great.

Replaced the MAF and connector and that fixed the problem. Trouble codes: P0170 (Fuel Trim bank 1). |
