is it the same procedure for the 991.2? Also, is the final drive gear oil shared with the differential? I see folks replacing the gear and clutch oil but never talk about the rear differential so im assuming that it shares the same fluid as the gear oil?

@HammerofGod777 Correct, the car does have an oil heater. Rock Auto does show two types of filter for the car. One is the typical screen that isnt replaced and the other is a cylinder/paper type that would be typical in an oil heater/cooler, but no mention in The Chilton online manual about replacing filters for a transmission service.

Any idea what the torque specs are for the 13mm bolts on the triangular under-body pan?
@jackharding98 11 күн бұрын
@richardwoodcock849 The Porsche spec is an initial torque of 2.4 Nm (2 ftlb) then torque to yield at a medium setting. I believe I torqued to 5 or 6 ftlbs. There is also a tightening sequence. If the pan was a house shape, #1 screw is very top right corner, then alternate in a star pattern like you would for wheel lug bolts.

@jackharding98 27 күн бұрын
@michaelodonnell-ib9rz knowing what I know now, I'd avoid the broken bolts by putting lube on the screws ahead of time. The bolts poke through, and the ends are exposed, so putting liquid wrench on them in advance and maybe even brushing with a small wire brush would be well worth the effort. I removed the broken bolts by working the bolt back and forth and then eventually drilling them out and re-tapping the hole with new threads that match factory spec. It worked fine, but honestly, I was a bit nervous and wishing I hadn't removed the filter pan.

@jackharding98 29 күн бұрын
@Patron10 It means you need more troubleshooting. An autoparts store like Autozone can test your alternator for free. I'd start there. Your alternator is what charges your battery. This video demonstrates how to disable VVCS. It doesn't repair alternators that aren't working. When you unplugged the current sensor or cut the IPDM wire (you didn't need to do both) you disconnected the Alternator from the IPDM. A working alternator would then charge the battery like a normal voltage regulated alternator without VVCS. If your not getting any charge, test the alternator itself. 👍

Got 3 new batteries and 2 different techs at 2 dealerships told us they could find nothing wrong, no bad starter, no bad alternator…nothing. Hubby got stranded at the gas pump at Woodmans today. It wouldn’t start. He’s on his 3rd battery🤷🏽♀️. As he was in the automated cust svc loop of AAA, the car just randomly started so he came home. It won’t start again. I was researching reasons, recalls and how to fix it…and here you are!! We just clipped the red wire and it started right up. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I drove his car to an event at Lambeau field (120 miles from here) and was driving home at midnight and it stopped on me just as I was pulling into KwikTrip. Took AAA 3 hrs to get to me.
