Did you ever discover any bore scoring? I have a 996.2, totally enjoyable, but any ticking or wobbling makes me nervous.

You lost me at specking with the tip.

Thank you!

Thank you

Excellent video. Great that you mentioned to half fill the filter housing. But…..you left out the final step…resetting the oil service interval lamp.

I like driving my 911 going up the Crest but not so much going back downhill

Because its too hard ti find a manual

That was helpful. Thank you for posting your video!

Very helpful thanks

Your car deserves better quality oil than this crappy Mobil 1

Thanks for this informative video.

I'm a 60 year old construction worker who's waited 40+ years to buy my dream 911... Well I finally did it a few minths ago, its a low mileage 997.1, and I'll say, is what it is, cross that bridge when and if it happens, but in the mean time, having the time if my life driving the car of my dreams thats exceeded everything I ever thought this car was capable of... F the naysayers!!!

your mystery "electrical" connection which is actually mechanical, that pulls to the right of the car, is to open the hood from the inside, even though nobody fits inside the hood, it is a DOT requirement. The other cable that pulls to the left (driver) fender is the emergency mechanical cable that is supposed to pull from inside the latch. Somehow, someone left it there, not knowing how to install it and route it properly.

I don’t use a car ramp or jack because my driveway slopes. So parking in the garage such that the rear protrudes over the beginning of the slope allows enough space to work.

Video could def use some music over hearing your grunting.

What a great bike!

Nice job Kirby!

997.1 same shape as .2, nicer rear taillights shape than the .2. A lot cheaper, no brainier PDK is not worth the extra $.

That’s why Ferrari and corvette don’t have stick anymore, old men are lazy farts

Does the Porsche have blinker fluid

I am always saluting fellow P car owners but I am not related that "crazy guy" in your first story. A 981 Cayman S owner and Porsche Club member from Dublin, Ireland. 😂

great video! if i would make a humble suggestion to get wheel chocks from harbor freight, they are pretty cheap.oh and run some oil around the filter ring to seal it.

w the screws on mine are very tight, how did you get yours loose?? I don't want to strip them.

Did you do the puddle lights? I want them now! The ones on suncoastparts says they're for 2013 and newer. Just wondering if they will fit or if we need a different part for 997.1 /John

I don't use car ramps, you should use a standard low profile jack and axel stands. You will be surprised how much oil stays in the car if you don't level it again after the main oil drainage.

It really is easy. I don’t fill the canister half full or pull the fuses. In fact, I’ve added a spin on oil filter adapter, so now I just use a spin on filter. I use an oil pan the is basically a jug with a removable drain so once the oil drains, you replace the drain and it’s a jug. So no pouring until you get to AutoZone, O’Reilly’s or wherever you recycle your oil.

Excellent tutorial, Descriptive, informative and well done! Maybe your next video could show your audience how to replace the cabin filter and air filter? Just a thought from a fellow 2008 911S owner

great car and tutorial, nice content :) have a good day

This is exactly the information I was searching for any YOU have it with the LED replacement bulb info. I have a 2022 RE 650 Intercepter. I trust this is the right bulb replacement.

The PCM2 BOSE sound system is absolute garbage .. no one should ever go through life listening to this junk. Yank the dinosaur out and replace the amp and head unit with modern components

Love this guys knowledge and voice!

It’s good to have closure, thanks for the grand finale content on the 911. Thanks!

Beautiful car…..Drive the wheels off that puppy …Miles of smiles…..😀😀

Had a 968 tip in high school and it sucked. All my p cars are manual but….I just bought my wife an 05 boxster tip and I’ve actually really enjoyed it just in auto mode. I was really impressed with how intelligent the computer is. I’ll never get used to shifting from the steering wheel or using paddle shifters, it’s just not my kind of fun. If I lived or dealt with high traffic areas, I’d seriously consider a tip or pdk in my mid 40s.

I think the keys are personalized for the seat memory. If you have key2 and have set your seat position it will automatically adjust.

Good video. We were all there once. The steering is amazing, best I’ve ever driven on that front too. My engine had the dreaded bore scoring though, so it went back to the dealer. It was fast & fun while it lasted. Got a hot back, even with AC I found. You cannot see the rear spoiler when your driving and that’s a shame. I never knew whether it was up or down half the time. Parking can be hard as you can’t really see the rear quarters due to the large wheel arches, which are cool. 997.1 is a good looking car, but the engine lets it down. Get the piston barrels fixed & it’ll be a classic if not already. You can see the 1964 heritage in the .1; the Carrera 2 is all you need. I never used the centre console, too busy driving it but they do offer a touch screen replacement now for £1500.

awesome

Poor product info just post product # as shown on your Invoice . Clear as can be.

This is what mines doing but honestly your explanations, stopping, starting, rephrasing your instructions made me very irritated. I would have a hand written speech for the viewers and just read it and also not show a still photo of the engine while you talk. That doesn’t help the viewers any.

thanks

Thx for the videos! See ya around! Hey check out the Ammo cleaning products! Great stuff..

Super cool 😎👌great video 📹👍Porsche is awesome 👌I love the new gen of 911. a GT3RS is my fav Porsche especially in Lava orange

Always good to see some Porsche content. Keep enjoying your ride! 👍🏻

Took me a while to figure out this problem on my 997.1 also (a while back). Thanks for sharing your knowledge for the benefit of other owners out there~! FYI... Porsche Grommet for Engine Air Temperature Sensor part no. 958.606.530.00

Excellent synopsis. I own a 2008 Carrera S six speed manual. I love the automobile! I have not experienced any problems while accumulating 67000 miles. I will keep this vehicle and pass it on to my grandkids. Thank you for your perspective and insight.

Video is not working.

Rewatching this video as I am currently eyeing the exact same car. Tip, 997.1 Arctic silver! How all is well with you Kirby? You haven’t posted new videos for a while. 🤔

Porsche Heaven!!! Hope all is good with you mate!

Thank you for your video. I’ve had this issue for the last 2 months and I could not figure what was causing the problem. Just saw your video this morning, went out to my car, and sure enough the sensor was right on top of the header. Grateful for the Porsche community!

Hey pal! How is the Porsche?? Hope all is well!!
