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 Everyone, I’ve removed the oil filter housing on my Turbo and can’t find the torque figures for the three M8x25 bolts. #22 & #26 on the diagram. I can only find the 25NM for the cap to the housing (#24). Any help would be appreciated.

POST 2Original post

Those bolts are 8.8 strength grade. I don't have actual Porsche figure but going from engineering charts, when bolting into steel thats 18-22 ft.lbs. Because your going into aluminium it needs reducing a bit so I would say 16-17 ft.lbs will work fine. Alternatively use a 1/4 ratchet and do it pretty tight and you'll be somewhere near!

POST 3Original post

How did you get on with this?

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello, I went with 24nm in the end. Based on what Porsche recommend for a M8 fixing. Used a new gasket. No leaks after a good test drive. Turns out the torque figure is in the GT3 workshop manual at 23nm (17ft.lbs) so we were both close enough. Many thanks
