Have you tried to just roll in a new chain? We used to do it on the mercedes engines. You just cut the chain and splice in the new one and have someone hold tension on it while you turn the crank all the way around till you get all the old chain out and then connect the ends. We used to do this just with one valve cover off. I just got a cheap 955 turbo and hate to see you have problems.

I’d absolutely love to collab sometime still got my old Adam in the back garden getting modded to this day!

This guy has his outside everyday

9:56 nobody sell a good cayenne with low price. they sold because cost for repair is big many example car is not services corrrectly

5:15 i think that parts is blocked with dirty oil but is not change. and gear box and coolig gear radiator isnt clean correctly

I've had to deal with the coolant pipes. I got coolant everywhere. A year after it was fixed, at my expense as I wasn't original owner, the coolant rotted out the transmission seal. That was expensive. U joints are watch point. There are better aftermarket U-joints. If you're on the look out for a 955 look for rare off road package or Turbo S.

is the motor not the m52?

That looks like a much better choice than Taylor’s old car which was way OTT for road use. I think that car had been taken too far personally because there’ll be better track cars out there.

I found your channel a few weeks ago when I was psyching myself up to do a roof-swap. Ironically, I had just spontaneously upgraded from a 1.9 (non-supercharged!) to a 2.8 and had only a few weeks earlier had new roof fabric fitted at Jack Smiths in Swansea. I'm loving the car upgrade, it was definitely a good decision - even despite the hassle of changing the roof (your video was a big help). Hope you enjoy the 3.0, I look forward to more videos on it

Are you selling this z3?

This takes me back to my HGT. I had it from 2001-2008 when I wrote it off driving like a loon. I did a few light mods, HID retrofit, coupe 16vt alloys refurbed in metallic black, Supersprint, induction kit and I ordered new from the dealers an Abarth kit. Looked very cool. Its only annoyance was it used to ‘tractor’ for the first few seconds when starting it in the morning so used to replace the variation too often. It just occurred to me the part number is (or was) 60666199 I think I did a replacement guide on puntosportsclub? Good to see this one though👍🏻

From my experience the recommendations usually fit the parameters set but are mostly US based and appear to be just the same as most of shitty recommendation websites of "top 10 vacuums under 200$".

A very interesting video as I too am looking into 955 Cayenne's! I want one to stick my roof tent on and to enjoy a little more offroad capability than my E Class estate, haha! What kind of price would you say is right for a vehicle from say 2005 to 2008?

whats up with your accent, you sound Aussie.

Bro that shit is sun faded as hell buy a new one that doesn’t have the permanent pollen under color or maybe just give it a quick spay paint black…?

I’m well happy with the new roof, the car looks so much better and I’m not scared of the rain 😂. Have you had a recent cheap car repair success?

Love the old school cars did you sell the Porsche in the end?

Oh my wee sunny punto had get bits welding for mot 800 pounds later passed 🎉yayyyy

Lol here we go again bad back bad neck swearing etc etc 😂😂😂

Nice BMW bro

Good find with the extraordinary busso 3.0 manual "picked up" for just about the equivalent of 3600 euros! I have one myself, and I really love the car. Very undervalued at the moment in this specification. Enjoy and keep posting updates about the car!!

Thank you very much for the kind words on my Boxster S...! Great to see it on your video (986guy)

You should use a little electric pump with hoses...it works very nicely and you just have to unscrew one bolt. When it is finished, you switch the hose and you feel the gearbox with new oil. It is brillant.

What happened to the Porsche? Any new videos?

Just bought a hardtop recently for mine, you’ll be paying around a grand for the hardtop and mounts, which are a bit of a pain to fit properly, it’s definitely a 2 person job and takes a lot of taking it off and putting it back on again to fine tune the adjustment bolts so it fits nicely without rattling.

The S1 Exige is actually Ford Tangerine scream ;)

Apologies for the sub par audio, but we had a great time at the PistonHeads Annual Service. The car park really was the stand out attraction.

Great to meet you at Blyton Tom, the Z3S did well!

add sport stubby radio antenna, change/raise rear view mirror so it doesn't block forward view, loose engine bay noise baffling from underside of hood(bonnet), delete clutch delay valve, look at Momo racing steering wheels, turn OFF traction control for track day, get Motul racing brake fluid which wont boil on track, add wheel spacers and raise chassis just a bit with coilovers, get AGM style battery, also it looks like someone added engine power before upgrading braking system, be careful with all that power, get stock seats for touring, easy swap...back to race seats for track day, cooling system is a weak link on all BMW, watch for overheating and leaks, Porsche is the enemy, they must be passed.....

I’m here from the pistonheads thread, keep it going bud!

Big thanks to my daughter for once again “volunteering” to be my camera person. I think she’s doing really well! 🎉

Drive the front wheels onto some blocks of wood and then you'll have more room to slide your jack underneath

Hey, good to meet you at helmington today. Lovely Alfa again!

SUPER!!!!!!!!!!

If it's getting twitchy under breaking then the front rotors on that car are probably warped.

C’est vraiment un turbo s? J’ai un doute on dirait plutôt un turbo. Normalement les compteurs sont blanc et c’est marqué turbo s. Même le rétro intérieur electrochrome. Bizarre cette vidéo

​ The front lower control arms are almost "consumable" on the V6 Alfas of this vintage, mainly due to weight over the front wheels. Not especially expensive to replace, but they generally only last 4-5 years (50-60,000km). Change them, and you will notice the difference. But a good set of adjustable coilovers will make it an entirely different beast. Alternatively (I can't tell from the video if its already fitted) the factory "sport pack" suspension - which is basically just shorter firmer springs that lower ride height by 25mm - transforms handling in terms of roll and pitch with minimal impact on ride quality. All three of my 156s have had either the sport pack or coilovers and had almost no body roll, and would really stick in the corners, best handling FWDs I've ever driven. In comparison, the ones I've driven with "stock" springs and ride height roll like an old boat in a storm. Totally different.

I think the problem was that you always smugly called it a "cryon". Never badmouth your car or airplane within 50 feet. You pissed her off and you are paying for it. Try making up a bad name for your SO and see how long before you are very, very sorry. And I'm still going to buy one. (Cayenne not a SO. I've given up on women. They cost more than old Cayennes). Edit. But I am sorry for your difficulties.

Great camera work! 👏😊

I have to disagree on the handling, definitely a soft car especially with the big sidewall tires but extremely capable and well balanced for its size. Alfa put a massive amount into making this their flagship and its by far the most sorted car on the platform. If you're lacking feedback from the steering I'd suggest there could be some tired components in the front end as the quick and direct rack is one of the high points.

I love the car I own a 166 for 20 years with the same specs but differant colour mine is ´Nero Vulcano´ and will never sell it! in your video you showed the car key... for this version the orginal key is red and the steering wheel in your car is from the later version has something happend with the car that it has been changed.

Audio issues at 7:48 - 8:01 getting external engine note over the top of your interior commentary.

I’m proper happy with this Alfa and the engine bay is looking much nicer! There’s an issue with the Audio at 7:48, apologies!

I‘d have loved if it were RWD.it truly would have made a huge diff.Agivingnother good thing that Alfa could have done is to sell the engine rights to Cosworth.I love the idea of a Busso engine revving to 11000 RPMs
