They were mostly involved with air cooled though it seems they now have moved into the water cooled era in that it seems they may be running an X50 996 Turbo.

On their recommendation I bought a adapter that allows you to use a torque wrench with an open ended or ring spanner, very useful in some restricted situations.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have watched and enjoyed the degree of detail that these folk put into the making of their vids. They were mostly involved with air cooled though it seems they now have moved into the water cooled era in that it seems they may be running an X50 996 Turbo. This vid is on oil change, but will give you an idea of the way they go about things and to decide if they might be of interest to you.. https://youtu.be/wOBHGeMHRwo They have posted a few vids of maintaining their 996. heidi and franny porsche 996 turbo - YouTube

I've always liked their videos, enjoyable from a different perspective. Some of the content is really useful. On their recommendation I bought a adapter that allows you to use a torque wrench with an open ended or ring spanner, very useful in some restricted situations. Downside is that I've got garage envy.
