As such I couldn't use the brakes to stop the shafts turning when undoing the inner CV bolts, but it was fine just holding them with a breaker bar.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Before I splash the cash, does anybody know of anywhere other than here: https://www.reluctorrings.com/cars/porsche As a good source for front reluctor rings for a C4. I'm changing bootson both driveshafts and noticed that one ring is split, the other is proper manky. MC

POST 2Original post

https://www.ukpartsdirect.com/abs-reluctor-ring-683.html This is for rear but I am sure they will do front too

POST 3Original post

I have just received my rings from https://www.reluctorrings.com/cars/porsche . The operate on a batch process so expect to wait a few weeks for them to arrive. Let me know how you get on with removing the front drive shafts, I have that "fun" activity to look forward to

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks, driveshafts are off, that bit was easy. Getting the driveshafts apart was more fun. MC

POST 5Original post

Was it fairly straightforward to do? my worry is rusted on bolts. I have a lobg breaker bar for the axel nuts so that should be ok. Did you do it on axel stands or do you have a car lift?

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Mine was done on a lift. I hadn't planned to remove the driveshafts, just the uprights, so I had loosened the big centre nut before stripping the brakes off. As such I couldn't use the brakes to stop the shafts turning when undoing the inner CV bolts, but it was fine just holding them with a breaker bar. The bolts were not crazy tight and not corroded. MC

POST 7Original post

Thanks for the advice. It's job worth doing. A new axel from porsche is around £1k!
