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

Hello. A quick intro. I've been a frequent visitor to the 996 forum since last June when I was looking for a replacement for my 2007 Cayman S. i had no complaints with the Cayman, but it was destroyed when I got hit by a drunk driver. I ended up replacing the Cayman with a 1999 996. It's been a great experience so far. This past weekend I installed the ROW M030 suspension. Everything went well with the install, but the upper strut mounts need to be torqued down and I am unable to find the spec anywhere. Does anyone happen to know what the spec is for that 21 mm nut? Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the quick reply, dkraige. Hopefully, I can help someone out down the road.

" I am unable to find the spec anywhere." ^^^Really? Seems like you found it here, and right quickly at that... For future mechanical endeavors with your new to you 996, I'd like to recommend either A) Bentley's 996 service manual and/or (B) The Knowledge Gruppe 996 Torque Spec Book (this one is small format so really helpful in the shop - it's also about half the price of Bentley's if it's monly torque specs that you need). Good luck

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Funny that you should mention the Bentley shop manual. I was looking at buying one last week. Even went as to put it in my Amazon basket. I just completed the order. Should be here soon. Too bad you didn't include an affiliate link with your recommendation. ;-) Cheers.

"Too bad you didn't include an affiliate link with your recommendation. ;-)" The fact that you found one and ordered it, speaks volumes... "Every DIY'r should own these." Indeed!
