I love this 996 series. Great and easy to understand👍 Keep up loading more Videos please👍How about a clutch change including an IMS change. I would love to see you doing such a video👍
This is just awesome! Thank you so much for an unhurried, comprehensive, and thoughtful guide! BTW, if you are already this far in, why did you not do the blessed Air Oil Separator that people state is #2 to fail after the water pump? Please continue this expert channel!

Since there is a danger of having coolant enter into the oil holes and contaminate the oil, which most likely happened when you see the coolant flowing out, which will require a full oil change. It would be advisable to syphon the coolant out through the rubber hose before pulling the oil cooler out
If you have any chance of taking the engine out it will make things so much easier in almost every problem: IMS, RMS, AOS, oil cooler, chain tensioners and slides, thermostat, water pump, oil pump, starter, generator. The biggest problem with these engines in terms of service is taking the compressor off. The one bolt on the side is 75% of all trouble. Everything else is easy.
Saw a glimpse of various valves for the SAI system under the driver side intake. Would be great to get a DIY on troubleshooting and replacing these. While you’re in there. 😉
I don't know which way is most difficult, going in this way requiring moving the compressor, power steering, etc or dropping the trans and going in from there.
Hi Jeff, Mike was adamant about doing that for many of the 996 videos we shot. The idea is that most people are not going to do that for a DIY at home. However, that being said, it was fairly accessible once the right bank intake manifold and AC compressor were out of the way. Of course, with an engine out, you can access and service the M96 easily!
Thanks for the video!!! Are these oil coolers actually worth it and effective? What kind of lower oil temperatures cooling performance can be expected from a kit like this? Thanks again🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Wouldn’t it be easier to just drop the engine to get access to the oil cooler. Seems like a heck of dismantling and you might as well get the engine out🤷♂️

These videos are really well produced and paced. Also, they're funny, an added bonus. Keep it up please!
Glad you like them!
Where did that hose from the top of the oil cooler go? What's it for, since there are two coolant and two oil connections at the bottom already?

Keep up the videos on the 996. I have one and the videos are VERY helpful

Excellent video, I was wondering if this is similar to the process for the 996 turbo. Thanks for posting

Believe us, Mike kept saying "let's just drop the engine".
I removed the cooler without removing the air intake just the ac pump moved to one side

Can you videos on 996 turbo parts replacement please. Especially the MAF and hose replacements that are probably needed now.
@fcpeuro when the transmission Oil Cooler and the engine Cooler Replacement must be done for 987.2 Cayman . It is on 77000 Km now.
Thanks for sharing. I was wondering if it would be easier to drop the engine and work from there as well as other parts? Is this way faster?

Bel video spiegato molto bene
Bravo 👌

Those rainbow crocs OSHA approved??
I wish i could do this😔 off to the expensive indy for me
Hi, I have a RHD 996. Are the LHD and RHD oil coolers the same?
Hi Shaazy, the coolers should be the same!
First like first comment ksa 🇸🇦🌺🥰

Roger, Mike would agree with you...😅
What’s a posche jk
This is worse than Mercedes
Hate 996
