    2008 cayman S with cloth headliner sagging throughout . Any diy on how to remove and install new one from factory?

    Thanks JFP, now my last problem is finding the right breaker bar 24mm socket combo that will fit in the tight space to loosen crank pulley. Your correct the bolt need is exactly 5/16 or .3125 of an inch. I went to hardware store and made one and it fits perfectly! I hope I don't have to end of buying Porsche's tool to remove bolt.

    JFP, donhabe the torque specs for the following bolts: Upper Pulley Tensioner Pulley Lower Pulley i can't find the smooth bolt or rod to insert in engine case when removing crank pulley. I'm trying to find the locking pin the pic you posted. I'm not sure there is room to insert that pin with the round ball at the end but do you think if I end up finding one I could just cut off the round ball off at the end and that should do it. Or maybe depending on length of that locking pin maybe it will work as is?

    JFP, I tries searching for TSBS on the removal of the crank an cannot find any. Is there anyway you send me link for one if you know of any. My questions are once I get the tool , I insert it into the hole in location according to the pic above. I just looked and it does not seem to align at it current position for me to insert anything in. Is there a way to move the crank pulley or do I need to start car with belt on to see if I can get it aligned for the bolt? Once I do get that bolt in I use breaker bar to remove 24mm crank bolt , then wiggle out old crank pulley, put new one on and at that point do I need to re-insert the PIN to bolt back the pulley on ?? Thanks

    Thanks Loren! So I understand the upper and lower deflection pulley have same part number as they look identical with exception to bolt size ? Can I get the part number for the Tensioner Pulley. Also do you know what tool i need to purchase that holds the crankshaft pulley in place when removing it. The one I read when you have to insert into one of the holes into engine case? I'll try and see if there are any tsbs on it .

    Thanks Loren ! I was given wrong one from dealer. I'm going to replace the Lower pulley and crankshaft pulley too if you have time to get those that would be much appreciated. I'm going to donate soon.

    Thanks did the upper roller get updated part number from 996.102.119.58 to 997.102.118.00. i was given a plastic one that didn't look metal seen in pic below. I need to also replace the lower and tensioner which look to all. E the same pulley and same part. The plastic one does not look strong so just wanted to make sure it is okay on 08 cayman S Tip. original roller on left metal and new dealer given plastic on right

    JFP is that +90 mean another like 4-6 turns on the wrench? Thanks
  12. moosey
    JFP it ended up being a combination of my cat going bad and upper pulley completely destroyed and bouncing all over the place. Sound gone onnce parts were installed. However after putting the belt on noticed the tensioner pulley , lower pulley and crankshaft pulley all started to wobble slightly and faintly began to lightly whisper the Sam noise telling me they all need to also be replace . Can't I have the torque specs for the Crankshaft bolt. Thanks!
  13. moosey
    The 6 manifold hexagon bolts. Thanks as always!
  14. moosey
    Hey JFP when I remove the cat does the battery need to be disconnected for 02 sensor? And the manifold bolts do you have to torque specs? Thanks again!
  15. moosey
    Thanks JFP ,

    2008 Cayman S with 75k. No CEL car drives perfect. Sometimes at highway speed I smell rotten eggs or sulfur smell inside car. This rattle noise only comes from driverside and is only on at idle and goes away when driven at speed and then comes back at idle at stop light. It seems to be coming from the exhaust manifold/ cat. Can anyone confirm by listening or had similar sounds . This rattle sound went away a couple months now is back and pretty persistent during initial start up and remains again only at idle.

    Car was fine just started it up and all this noise. There are no check engine lights at all . It also makes sewing machine noise when gas pedal is depressed. If anyone can listen and tell that be great. IMG_4518.mov

    I have an 2008 Cayman S both cats need to be replaced . Epa website says 8 years or 80k miles. Called Porsche dealer and they said it's not the year of manufacture but the in service date? My I. Service date is 11/07 for 2008 model year . Which is correct? I thought the cats wild just be by model year which mine would be 2008 and would still be covered.

    I have 2008 Cayman S, tip with no sport chrono. Can I just bolt new PSE without any electronics to have it loud all the time???

    You might be surprised, AAA were one of the first to train their drivers on how to correctly use the OEM tow hooks to flat bed Porsches without damaging them. Call your AAA rep and ask them about your battery concerns.
  21. moosey
    2011 Cayenne S battery completely dead! cannot get car into neutral to have it towed to dealer. Anyway to replace the battery under driver seat? Can anyone advise steps and tools needed. I have AAA but don't think they would know how to get to battery. Thanks
  22. moosey
    Awesome will call them tomorrow ! Thanks as always JFP!!!

    The factory caliper bolt should be a M12X1.5X72. JFP,cant find correct size for the length of thread needed for the insert. I think I measured the thread needed for insert to be 36.83mm that's the length measured when the caliper bolt is all the way in the caliper bolt hole itself. I under stand that the diameter is 12 and pitch is 1.5 but now I cant seem to find correct size insert, biggest ive seen is 30mm. The poster on rennlist was back from 2008 and said he found exact size but did not specify.

    The factory caliper bolt should be a M12X1.5X72. Thanks JFP, there are many kits out there. would you happen to know of one with exact dimension in insert? Where should go to purchase? A Porsche owner on rennlist said he found a kit with exact match but did not state where he purchased The Time Sert or Helicoil repair kit has to match the thickness of the area on the carrier where the caliper bolts to it, as well as the fastener itself. Companies like Fastenal that specialize is fasteners should be able to help you, or if you have the kit number the Rennlist poster used, you could probably find it cheaper (and perhaps faster) online, as even Amazon sells them. You can also look here: http://www.timesert.com/html/mtrcsert.html Thanks JFP, I see there is a Porsche /VW kit but not size M12x1.5x72. I will keep looking but if you happen to find kit number for caliper bolt please post. Thanks!!!!
