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

I have the need for a Time Sert that is M14x1.5 to repair a stripped thread on my 1999 Porsche 996 C4 Convertible. I there anywhere that would loan this tool or anyone have one to loan? I hate to spend about $ 140.00 for a one time use. Help.

POST 2Original post

I have a helicoil kit in that size. Timesert woukd be a different animal. What r u repairing and where r u?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am in Michigan and need to replace the long front suspension bolt that holds the coffin arm. Since it is torqued to a high level the Helicoil will not hold at that torque. Porsche uses TimeSerts for these types of repairs. The problem happened because the previous owner did not notice that the ball joint was perished and so it caused the coffin arm to wobble and perished the threads.

POST 4Original post

This is probably not the correct size, but when I typed in Time-sert to google it autofilled to time-sert tool rental. Looks like you could potentially rent what you need. Could this work for you? https://vwparts.aircooled.net/Time-S...ental-4412.htm

POST 5Original post

The helicoil will hold the 118ft-lbs, but i agree the timesert would be better. I used one in a hub as a temp fix for a lug bolt. I held 110ft-lbs just fine. Im more concerned with if there is enough meat to install a timesert, they require much more room then a helicoil. That nutsert is welded into the structual front "horn" of the unibody. U may have to have a body shop cut it out a weld a new one in.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks to one of the people here I now have a correct timeSert. Appreciate the various comments.

POST 7Original post

Cool, take a couple pics. Im interested on how this turns out.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I will try to remember to take the pictures.
