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.

2001 Carrera vert. you talk about the exhaust cams in the paragraphs then the intake cams in the step procedure. Im confused. My IMS Retrofit kit came with cam locking tools but you never mention using them, you actually say rotate the engine after removing the tensioners??? Nobody out there in porsche land seems to do it the same. Some places say remove all 3 tensioners, you say two. You don't specify exactly which plugs to remove the access the cams - nobody explains it clearly BTW - the front of the engine rear of car or the rear of the engine flywheel end. Can you clarify? We bought your bearing kit too. __________________ This post was auto-generated based upon a question asked on our tech article page here:

NEVER rotate the engine with the tensioners out. I just skimmed through the article and didn't see any mention of that. Wayne didn't use the cam tools because at the time he wrote this there were no cam tools available to the DIY'er. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAxj6FKMzvM Here is a video I helped make with Bentley that should make the process easier to understand. - Casey
