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.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My 987.2 has done 105k so i changed my spark plugs today and decided to check the hoses on the AOS for oil. There is a thin film of oil at both ends of the hose, also the cars smokes a little on start up, Given the oil in the hoses I assume i need to replace the AOS? Where is the best place to buy one?

POST 2Original post

Try Porsche dealer in your state to get a baseline price, then start googling. Sometimes the dealer can be competitive.

POST 3Original post

Get part number and: i) Call your dealer; ii) Check Ebay ( searching via part number can get surprisingly good prices from US and UK dealers ); then try iii) https://www.porschepartsbyjeff.com/ That should give you a pretty broad coverage in a short period to baseline price and pick the combination of cheap and reliable seller you are comfortable with.

POST 4Original post

And give Autohaus a call too. Prices are usually competitive, plus you get a Caramello Koala.

Quotes source post: 390847

I had mine done on last service by Porsche mech. they have done them a trillion times as some hoses and fittings can be tricky plus they have stock. That's just me though after I read a few reviews and nightmares where people tried to do their own and broke fittings.

POST 6Original post

AOS for the 987.1 was only $165 direct from Porsche Centre Melbourne. I bought one only a couple of months ago to replace mine. Cheapest I'd found anywhere else was over $200 or so. MAF sensors and housings on the other hand, don't bother with Porsche as they want $1500 for one of those. ended up getting that from Rockauto in the US for $329 delivered,

Get your Porsche mech to replace imho, they know the tricks, some parts are brittle and its pretty tricky. I did mine as precaution plus oil service cost $700.
