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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Been trying to get all the torque values put on the parts diagram for us all to use and enjoy. Please look these pics over and verify that I've got them correct. There are some I can't find, or not sure of with ?? in the value. Once done I'll post these up here for everyone to use, maybe the mods will sticky them up. Please state the diagram and number for new values... Here's some info from the repair manual that might help: Stabilizer on side member M10 x 1.5 65 (48) Stabilizer mount on stabilizer M10 46 (34) Stabilizer mount at shock-absorber tube and wheel carrier - Carrera 2 M12 x 1.5 85 (63)

POST 2Original post

The knowledge gruppe torque book for the 996 has specs for every fastener.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 16032255

If you have one, could you please look up the values with the question marks? Thanks!

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Updated pics, PLEASE FOLKS HELP VERIFY!!!! There are some values missing...

POST 5Original post

The ride height sensor mount #21 - if you even have it, will be a small fastener with a low torque value. Maybe 12 ft-lbs. I assume you are looking for the strut mount (#3) nut torque. 24 ft-lbs. (listed above as "strut mount to body") You may want to verify #10 (damper rod nut). 24 ft-lbs may be a little light. I see what you're up to... Nice idea. /placeholder/

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 16034791

Here's your changes, I agree about #10, just don't know what the value is.

POST 7Original post

Looks like 59 ft-lbs for the damper nut. And 27 ft-lbs for the strut mount nuts (unless you have a GT3).

POST 8Original post

The Knowledge Gruppe book has 80 nm (59 lb-ft) for the strut rod to upper mount. Strut mount nuts (strut upper mount to chassis) are 33 nm (24 lb-ft). All of the values you are chasing are in the book on pages 102-109. Everyone who is serious about working on their car should buy this book. It has every torque spec you'll ever need in one place. And it helps support a business that has given a lot back to the Porsche community.

POST 9Original post

The workshop manual has this information as well. Maybe you could provide a link to the KG site for those looking to support them?

POST 10Original post

Find the handy-dandy torque value guide at http://Theknowledgegruppe.com

POST 11Original post

I am not trying to shill for them, however the direct link is: http://www.theknowledgegruppe.com/in...96-automobile/ Well worth the few bucks it costs, rather than chasing all over the internet and hoping someone (a) knows the spec and (b) you can trust that it is accurate. It is as much a tool as any other I have in my toolboxes.

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Okay, here's the front shock one all filled in...thanks CDS!

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

And here's the final on the others, plus the bolt sizes: NOTE: These values are for the base C2.

POST 19Original post

Sorry if I missed it here, but does anyone know the spec for attaching the rear stabilizer link (from the anti-roll bar) to the rear shock body mount?

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
