I would be interested to know this as well, since it is a DFI engine there is very very little information published about this design (if any at all).

However, with a 2010 model year car, why not have the car flat bedded to the dealership?

I am guessing this would be covered by the warranty, since it is less than 2 years old.

Agree with Logray.. Have the dealer take care of it.. Your still under warranty....Don't mess with it yourself...

As a good shop mechanic or otherwise I would be concerend that doing any unauthorized work on the car would potentially void the warranty or at the very least cause an issue should this be a warranty repair.

Did the dealer authorize you to do the repairs?

Sounds like what we call a "salvage title" then in the USA, which probably voids the warranty.

I would be interested to get this information too, since this is such a new engine there is very little info I've seen about it publicly available.

If no one here has it, I think you might need a PIWIS subscription which provides access to this information online here:

https://techinfo2.po...r?Type=GVOStart

Once you have a login, you might be able to purchase just the document you need (if it is available and you meet the requirements), with pricing listed here:

https://techinfo2.po...Pricing&lk=ELSE

Not sure though.

You have to pay in advance. You add money to your account with a credit card -- then the payment is deducted from your PIWIS account.

Smart eh... they earn interest on your money until you spend it. Porsche is not dumb....

Login into your account --> click on "General functions" on the left hand menu --> click on the gray box that says "Order document access".

Choose your desire money/subscription level. I use the subscription package A - $100.

Here is the US price list page. You need to be a little careful as sometime you only get one page, or one section, or one schematic for $1.80.

Sorry, I am not sure that there is worldwide access to Porsche PIWIS TSI. I know Europe and North America have access but I am not sure where else.

Engine timing as in spark advance? That is all handled by the DME and not adjustable.

If you mean cam timing that is something different.
