I have been using Wayne's book for a few months and it's a great overview of the projects for a 997I replaced the water pump and will be pulling the coil packs/plugs shortly, this is a great reference until the Bentley book comes out.

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.

Quotes source post: 11182527

Are there more projects than the ones available for free on the Pelican Parts website?

POST 10Original post

I'm sure I could find this if I looked, but I'm feeling lazy: Anyone have a list of the 101 projects covered in the book?

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 11182606

Not sure if "more projects"......but I am sure it has them better documented, better categorized, better presented...in a nutshell, it is a book .....not an internet forum......

POST 12Original post

The book is now on Amazon for only $24, free prime shipping. Just hit 'buy now', should be here Thursday! A bargain compared to the $147 Bentley Service Manual and the $80 '996 Essential Companion" books! :-) If you go to the Amazon listing, you can "look inside" and see the table of contents with the project listing... 101 Projects for Your Porsche 911 996 and 997" 101 Projects for Your Porsche 911 996 and 997"

POST 14Original post

Mine arrived today ...thumbed through it for an hour or so. Good selection of "projects," I think, ranging from beginner (change your oil) to expert (remove the engine). Well illustrated, with links to additional pics and info online. Obviously, nowhere near as detailed as the Bentley manual, but IMO worth the $24.

POST 15Original post

Turns out you can browse some of it on Google Books http://books.google.com/books?id=dyj...page&q&f=false

POST 23Original post

Ordered mine Friday an got it today. Amazon Prime rocks!!

POST 24Original post

Ordered Friday, arrived Monday. Amazon Prime rocks!!

POST 25Original post

It's nowhere near as exhaustive as the Bentley as far as items covered, but makes up for it in the detailed instructions (the Bentley can be a little...light...on details - "To reassemble, do everything you did over the past day backwards."

POST 26Original post

I have been using Wayne's book for a few months and it's a great overview of the projects for a 997I replaced the water pump and will be pulling the coil packs/plugs shortly, this is a great reference until the Bentley book comes out. I saw the Bentley guys at an event last year and asked about the 997 manual, they said they are working on it and I would bet it will be published next year.

POST 27Original post

I'll admit that I only did a little bit of searching, but does anyone know what happened to all the links that were in the book for each project. I get a page not found error with http://www.101projects.com/carrera
