I can't wait to see what the other end of the bank 1 timing chain looks like. I'm expecting some hot IMS action took place. BTW, I broke down and bought one of the coffee mugs.
First - I so appreciate your videos! Next - Do you have a video on how to remove timing covers on a 986v1 - a 2000 Boxster S? I have oil stains on them and I want to track down where it's coming from. Thanks
Is removing the bank2 cam cover at all possible without removing the engine? Why you might ask? I've dropped an oilly tissue into the void when replacing a spark plug tube! Doh.
Looking more like the IMS at this point...you're going to find a mess under that head on the other side I think. Hopefully the block isn't broken and can be salvaged. Apparentlly they can be sleeved and that might be the opportunity to punch it out to a bigger size! Fingers crossed on that block! The head is probably gone though. Never know though...if the engine was just cranking or idling when it failed it might not have grenaded everything. Trying to be optimistic!
I'm still betting against the IMS. (And I'm NOT one of the guys who says IMS is overblown...) I just think there would be more debris if it was the IMS. We shall see ..
This is like watching an autopsy!
+mike dx without the blood, so far at least
This is like a great 'who dunnit' murder mystery, with Inspector Aaron on the case, discovering clues each episode.
+Christoph Soltau 😂 that’s what it feels like!
I'm not sure if I.kept watching this to find out the issue or to see if Aaron's right glove is going to completely disintegrate. 😂😂
+george louie there was plenty of tread left! Almost used it the next day 😂

+@BDaley20 I think for the vario cam chain guide pad replacement series
@@HelpMeDIY Do I need to pull the motor to get to the covers?

+@jeffrichards66 yes it’s quite easy in fact. Check my videos on replacing chain guide pads 😉🍻
Bank 2 looks absolutely OK. Stay tuned 🙂
+Richard Hagen 👍
You may get away with 1 cylinder head and timing chain/guide replacement.
+BranchOffice that’s kinda what I’m thinking too
