Nice! Have been tracing a P1126 on my Boxster S. Have replaced everything that would do that and even Dealer can’t figure it out. Gonna be hard to pass emissions soon. So frustrated.
Finding an independent shop experienced with these models like your Boxster will likely be better than the dealership as dealers work on new cars more often than one of these cars.
Will there be a difference in the normal readings between a stock 3.4L 06 Cayman S and my rebuilt LN 3.8L engine ? Will the normal readings be higher or lower for a bigger displacement rebuild like mine!?
Likely what is the cause for this is if the cam covers were resealed and too much sealant was used and that causes a restriction and the plug pops out. If someone happened to replace the lifter carrier and used sealant under it (where none should be used), this too could cause this issue.
Amazing video 👌👌👌
Thanks!
Thank you for explaining this in such detail.
You're very welcome!

Assuming you are using a Genuine Porsche AOS and conventional piston rings, it should read between 4-6 inches of water column.
On my 997 2007 3.6, I have a CEL light on, and recently, the camshaft end plug has popped off for the 3rd time. What is causing this to happen?
