HELP - Need DME Santa Barbara to San Francisco
#1

I'm supposed to go up to see my brother today and meet up with some Porsche people but my car won't idle. I think I need that dreaded DME and it's Sunday. Anyone have one in the Bay Area. I would of course pay you for it AND buy you a replacement. Desperate! Call my cell 805 453-1393.



Thanks,



Jarrod

After a "quick" juant up the coast to Sunnyvale from Santa Barbara (2 hours of bumper to bumper traffic from Salinas to Gilroy meant taking the 1 through Santa Cruz instead) I think it's the idle control valve. The car runs PERFECTLY except when it's idling. Confirmation with one of the best Porsche mechanics in the Bay Area means I'll be getting a new ICV in a couple days. In the meant time no idling... Guess I'll just have to drive it! Thanks EtherJoe for the DME offer. I'm ordering one tomorrow for sure!

glad to hear you made it up there - when i talked to you, i was having flashbacks of my trip home with my car when my DME was acting up, and remembering the 80mph roll starts



you should hook up with sean while you're there anyway, if just to hang out - dan sandru is pretty close to you too
