Suggestion
Porsche officially assemble dry, but where they do use paste they use Castrol Optimoly TA, but an aluminium based assembly paste works as well like Wurth AL1100 but only apply to shanks (I did 5 years ago and one came apart like new earlier this year) not threads as effectively lubricating the thread can lead to bolts being over torqued, but they do say apply thinly to the wheel bolt threads (and under the collar but not on the domed face).
Leading evidence: 'Use ally grease' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Lubricate thread can lead' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

Suggestion · Original poster
, a chemical reaction that occurs when dissimilar metals (like copper and aluminum) are in contact, especially with an electrolyte (like moisture) present; it's best to avoid copper grease on aluminum and use aluminum-specific anti-seize (like those with graphite, ceramic, or nickel) or a simple lithium grease instead for better protection against seizing and corrosion

hello all, im doing quite an exstensive suspension upgrade over the hols fitting all new bolts along the way what is the best grease to use to stop corrosion of oposing metals i usually use copper grease but hear that can attack aluminium
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

Yes, copper grease can attack aluminum due to
galvanic corrosion

You asked a question, ignored my answer, then answered your own question. It was simply an observation.
In answer to your second question, don't mind me, I'm just a w**ker
no i asked a question which was based on the fact i was concerned about copper grease eroding aluminium / you answered copper grease (thank you ) so i replied with the segment i read about copper/aluminium contam
Porsche officially assemble dry, but where they do use paste they use Castrol Optimoly TA, but an aluminium based assembly paste works as well like Wurth AL1100 but only apply to shanks (I did 5 years ago and one came apart like new earlier this year) not threads as effectively lubricating the thread can lead to bolts being over torqued, but they do say apply thinly to the wheel bolt threads (and under the collar but not on the domed face). Coppaslip can promote corrosion with some aluminium alloys.
I have used this in the past on wheel bolt collars etc
Cheap enough to try out.
