This was posted a long time ago and some ppl pointed out a few mistakes...Also, the new seal has a green sleeve and will require special tool to make it sit properly.

My bad, glad you guys caught it. I had no intention on doing the RMS myself and had ASG replace mine. I just thought the DIY might be useful with all the photos.
I did this procedure. Just do a search:

Let me know if you have any questions. There are some things the original author did that i wouldnt but he seems to be doing fine.
Not trying to hijack thread but, I was under the impression with the new seal the green sleeve was the seal lip protector and was removed prior to installation? Correct me if I am wrong anyone or did I misinterpite the reply
Yes the sleeve is not installed, but it is used in the installation to align everything(you dont want to touch the seal).
The special tool does all the work
200-300 at least, theres a much more complicated procedure for it
setting the motor at tdc and pinning it pulling chain tensioners newer vario+ cars should have the cams locked
if the crank isnt at tdc the timing could jump when you pull the bearing support............. that means bent valves which means big money ive seen guys do it ...................
the green seal protector is installed with the seal onto the the instalation tool
the tool installs the rms and the green sleve stays on the instaltaion tool.
per porsceh the green protectior should be left on the tool untill the next time the tool is needed to protect the lip of the the tool
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
