gave ya what i had. problem is ( vis a vis diagnosing ) is obd codes are often generic and LEAD to "causes", as opposed to actual pinpointing. again, my TB related codes ended up being just a bad MAF. GL with it!

Indeed the 01-05 996tt and like year boxster use the same identical throttle body.

If if you look here you will notice that the 996tt tb’s all have 986 as first part code number. Mysteriously the boxster part code looks nothing like this. I just ordered a “boxster” tb from Auto Atlanta this week. I will post pictures of new vs old.

i found the OEM bosch ( as atrox notes and same as the 986 part ) for about 300 US iirc? before i found i didn't need it. far less than 317 quid.

What’s confusing is how the tb on top has same part code, but looks completely different.

captain obvious says: anytime you purchase a part from an internet source without an EXACT corresponding part#? dont "click" until they confirm compatibility.
