@@Dethmeister that's sounds interesting, I have struggled to find a decent 4 x108 match with the right offset. Did think about painting them gold, what do you think?

@Witty924 My Gotti wheels were gold star center, silver outer rim with rivets. I think they looked good on a red car. Your wheels match the color scheme of your car very well. I don't think gold would be better. Maybe try Dip Your Car plasti-dip wheel kit. It's peel-able if done correctly.

@Dethmeister thanks for the tip. Will take a look at that. 👍

The phonedials are 5x120 so wont fit the NA 924 that have 4x108. Only the 924 S and 924 Turbo have 5x120

fit 15" Le Mans wheels 🔥

​​@@pederfallbom there are 4x108 phone dials.

@@charliemoore9165 totally agree Charlie, I just think I need a little wider and more rubber. Just hard to find the right 4 stud size with a good design.

@@stephencoggins8686 the tarantula alloys are unique but it would be good to get a wider tyre. I don't think they van take more than a 185 width 🤔

@@billyly4853 Hi Billy, thanks for the comment and support. So the earlier models came with twin accumulators. I think some owners have changed them out for the bigger single one, when and if the double set up fails. Personal preference I think. Do you mean the pipe from the pump to the accumulator has a 3 way banjo? 🤔

@@KenTakeyama001 Hi Ken, thanks for the comment and support. Great to hear that you had a win on the fix for you 996 too. 👍

@@into_therabbit_hole6246 it's like a parachute 😆

@Witty924 am currently looking to rent a garage.....Sooner the better I think🤔

@@into_therabbit_hole6246 best idea ever. Seems like every winter we have a line up of storms hitting us. There's me thinking the 924 was tucked up for the winter 🙄

@Witty924 no such luck....These old Porches are the gift that keeps giving🤣🤣

@@rubenschols8231 hey Ruben! So it's slightly lower at the front with the coilovers. The rear maybe indexed by a very small degree but I personally think it's standard, they seat low as you know 👍. I have spacers on the rear wheels which I think are 10mm but I will double check on that and let you know 👍

Hi @Whitty924 I thought about putting up some videos of the restoration but the editing side of it has put me off a bit. I'll definitely try make the trip across to the UK next year.

@@alwillz1 hi Al, you shouldn't have to do anything, the car should read the new battery and the fault light should turn off on the dash cluster. Has that happened for you?

@@Witty924 Not yet.... just trying to cxharge it up first to see if i need a replacement or not. I have read on other forums that yiou need to do a full BMS update for the warning light to go off.

@@alwillz1 What year is your car? is this the first time you have had to change it? Let me know if the charge holds.

@Witty924 charge no held annoyingly, so new battery needed. its a 2016 LR4.

@@ge2zy thanks for the comment. If you have the 180hp 1999 then it should be the same. Let me know how you get on. 👍

@ thanks for the reply man, I got 1.8 turbo, my car goes overheating over 120 on idle, and after changing the oil and cleaning the coolant reservoir, my friend told me to check the thermostat, if you have any suggestions please let me know, appreciate it

@ge2zy sounds good place to start. Check the secret menu as I show in the video to make sure the temperature matches the gauge cluster. Once you have done that the temp sensor is also a good option and very cheap to change in 5 minutes. Let me know how you get on 👍

@ will do, thanks a lot

@@Witty924 I just checked a few minutes ago, and the gauge doesn’t match the secret panel, I will go a head with changing the temperature sensor, is that correct?

@@mervuss hi, I have one for sale, are you I the UK, if so DM me and we can sort. 👍

@@stevehunt3847 no worries. Did you order a new WUR or were you going to recondition your current one?

@@Carz_PalaceYT great story thanks for sharing. I hope it didn't break down on her lots 👍

@@VasylUK hi Vasy, are you talking about the pipe on the back right handside? You can lose a nut and give the pipe a tug to the right. The pipe on the front needs the bracket removed to help create a small amount of room. The cover should angle up and the back enough to then pull over the front threaded studs. Let me know how you get on 👍

@@Richard_L_Y hey Richard thanks for the comment and support. So if you have a tape measure for clothing, one that is flexible enough to wrap around the bar so you can get a good measure of the bar diameter. If it's a 22 mm then a 20 mm bushing will work great. General rule is do use a busing 2 mm less in size as that creates a nice tight fit. The idea of the bushing is a tight fit nothing more as the bar will flex slightly left and right during cornering but the drop links will ensure everything stays in place as designed. Yes a little lock tight on the clamp bolts can be used. The audi design with plastic covers suggests a new anti role bar being installed which is crazy and expensive, just not needed. Let me know how you get on 👍

@@Witty924 Thanks a lot for taking the time to reply; every little bit of info helps! e.g. for threadlock, it's also good to use as an anti-corrosive, even if not needed otherwise!

(maybe ironically; as it's mainly supposed to stop things falling off; but is something that works both ways!)

@@davidwalker575 hi David, thanks for the comment. This was done on a 2016. 👍

Brilliant thank you. I just followed your video and fitted my own. The error code disappeared and the LR4 thinks stop/start is available but it is yet to actually work! Any advice?

@@davidwalker575 great to hear David. Did the start stop work before you changed the battery. I know the LR4 start stop is vey temperamental, many don't work as they should. If you have an OBD2 reader you could find there is a fault code that needs clearing potentially.

@@Witty924 thanks for the reply. OBD2 reader shows no fault but is failing when I try to reset the BMS. It’s been so long since it failed that I’ve forgotten how well it worked before. I’ll prob just chalk it up to needing a few more runs and it generally being a pretty pants feature to begin with

@@davidwalker575 let me know if it kicks in, mine has a life of its own too 👍

@@juliencayer6630 Hi Julien, thanks for the comment and support. I only had to loosen the passenger side engine mount. Hope that helps 👍

Thanks for the comment and support. I managed to get all of my parts from Autodoc. Let me know how you get on 👍

@@stevehunt3847 thanks for the comment and support Steve. I went down the route of sorting all things fuel related. I changed my fuel pump and cleaned up the WUR. I did a few videos in those too if it helps you out. Let me know how you get on 🤞 👍

@@Witty924 thanks would the wur supply feed to the cold start injector. As I have no feed to cold start injector thinking of changing thermo time switch also

@@stevehunt3847 Hi Steve, so have you checked if there is power to the cold start injector?

@@Witty924 yes no power to cold start injector ..I'm.going to stripe down the wur and properly clean it out. Also I found a bad connection on fuel pump relay ..car just has bad backfire very loud I have coil of check test primary secondary tests.

@@stevehunt3847 let me know how you get on. You should get power on crank to the cold start injector. Also unplug the thermo switch connectors and see if you have power there. 🤞👍

@@orgenstepp thanks for the support and comment. Great to hear it helped you out and you car is running well 👍

@@dinomelton hi Dino, thanks for the comment and support. So if you have the same model as mine you need the picks ups as the tank is a Tshape . If you have a none t shaped tank which I believe is on 2 wheel drive 996s then you need a different pump/swirl pot. I'm not sure if you block them up if it will cause a performance issue with the pump ans swirl pot internal design. You could test it out of the car to see how well it works with plugging those ports. Let me know how you get on 🤞👍

@@stevehunt3847 Hi Steve, thanks for the comment and support. So it could be a few things. Once you have replaced the coil, the WUR is a good place to start. Remove it and give it a clean out, it may have dirt in the inlet. Also while it's out just check the ohms, should be 20ohms to ensure the metallic strip inside is all good. While you are there, remove and check your AAR. It should be open when cold, a decent sized hole should be visible through the unit. Finally the cold start valve. Remove it from the manifold housing and place in a glass jar and see if it sprays when cold. My feeling is the WUR, these tend to be the route of most little gremlins when starting/idle. Let me know how you get on 🤞 👍

Hi thank you I will try all these things thanks for your time it runs smoothly when engine is warm

@@Witty924 got the a aav auxillary air valve of and it is closed no hole through it when cold also only reads 4 ohms I'm sure this will be the issue ..as it's jammed shut when cold

@@stevehunt3847 no problem Steve, I hope you track down the problem. 🤞👍

@@pittaloaf1 thanks for the comment and support. It has been a journey, sometimes not as I hoped, I have learnt much along the way and as you say I really think the 924 has come of age. To think it's lived in the shadow or all the other porsche models, yet so many great things about the 924 has the porsche DNA all over it. 🚙💨👍

I hope to get my 924 as good condition as yours I have a split on my driver's seat looking at using a patch underneath and hooking it under and underneath then bonding it down as it's only a 4 inch split

@@stevehunt3847 hey Steve, I look forward to hearing about your journey with the 924 more. I did a similar approach on the seat with a patch behind , mainly to stop additional tearing and tidy up the hole so it can have many good years ahead 🤞👍

@@Witty924 hi m8 I did a service on my wur and replaced the auxillary air valve and 5th injector but now the car won't start IV cranked it over many times as thought it may have a air lock in the fuel system so I did the procedure with the mentor plate by holding it down ect ..but still no luck can the fuel be bleed from the fuel meter ..

@@stevehunt3847 hey Steve, have you test the 5th injector, did it work on a cold start? Did you take the airbox off and lift the air metering plate? That should send fuel to all injectors to get a start. If that doesn't work you need to check your fuel pump, can you hear the pump when cranking the engine? You definitely have spark too? Just ticking the easy boxes first.

@@marcushinton772 thanks for the comment Marcus. The 924 has come of age, so retro and cool for a car from the 70's. To think they were just 9ver a ton in weight compared to cars today that are double that. It makes a huge difference when driving and makes the corners more enjoyable 🚙💨😊

@@dariocheese9240 Hi Dario, thanks for the comment and support. So it might be a fault instrument gauge if the needle is jumping around as you say. Is it erratic movements or steady and slow? Do you have an OBD2 reader that you can plug into the car? Also have you checked the tempreture on the secret menu of the aircon unit, that will give you a reading also that you can compare to the gauge. Let me know how you get on. 👍

@@Witty924 thanks for the reply sorry it's delayed been on holiday... Ye the needle goes up slowly then suddenly drops to half way then jumps back into the red... The secret menu says temp is at 90c I'm hoping it's, a sticky thermo🤞🙏
