is this car 997 gt3??
Lol I don't even own a Porsche and am watching this. This channel's really good
Try Surefire® coil packs mate. They're reinforced and are guaranteed not to crack. Plus you get a much stronger spark with them. They've been cracking on mine and they're not really expensive.
Ah that's why. You need a proper tool to get the oil filter housing off!
Same miles as mine! Where'd you get the reset tool mate?? I couldn't get my bloody oil filter container off so need to go an indy and have them put the new one in. I heard you don't have to change the air filter in the next minor service after a major service? I'm getting a performance panel filter so doesn't matter anyways. More for maintenance convenience than for hope of any bhp haha!
… And what about the annoyong "service now" reminder? Lol. I just did mine myself like. Saved £350!
Stupid video, other videos you have are ok.
First off, if you can afford a 997 you should be able to pay for a service and have the important full stamped service history.
Service it yourself and make the car harder to sell, I wouldn’t buy a 997 John in his shed had serviced.
Great vid. Question: is it worth getting POR v2.0 over v1.0 ? Really enjoy your content. Thanks.
Great little vid!
Believe it or not my main Dealer in Aberdeen is not a “stealership”
Great video thanks
Brilliant!!!
Great DIY video. I bet the rear most coils and plug were a huge PITA! But then so is dropping the mufflers I hear. Seized/snapped bolts and such. Have you considered taking a peek at your cylinders thru the spark plug holes for bore scoring? You don’t get the full picture that way because the scoring usually starts from underneath, I’m told. I seriously considering dropping my sump plate and trying to get in the cylinders from that way to check for scoring at my next oil change in a few months.
