Porsche 997 Common Engine Removal Works - FGP Prep Book EP53 

Pretty cool that Olly has the knowledge, kit and confidence to drop out and reinstall the entire motor plus transmission, solo. Kudos.

good spot on the engine mounts. I thought the wheel hop from pushing the car hard from a stop was normal however the thud that came through the cabin was almost partially deafening. A specialist didn't spot that the engine mounts were going bad when we bought the car and they did a look over the 997 C2S. I did also mention the loud thuds that used to happen during wheel hopping still no show of concern. Fast forward a year or two and one day going from a stop and accelerating hard wheel hop happened and the right engine mount failed! people need to change engine mounts way more often. After getting new engine mounts the car felt phenomenal, espeically around bends

brilliant views of the lump out and going back in, one of your best videos.

Ollie loves his red sealant 👌

It appears you've got the road salt monster there, as the US has in the northern regions. I'm residing in Florida and we don't see the hose junctions corroding, so that eliminated electrolysis being the culprit. Thank for the tip on the coolant tank relief valve causing the tank to split.

Great info lads I am scared to look at my .2 GTS now 🤒

Man the under belly really takes a beating from all that rainy weather. 😮

Very thorough video, and high quality content as always, your commitment to the Porsche 911 is unmatched and should I ever be lucky enough to own one I would contact you guys immediately and book a service and inspection 👍🏻

Thanks Luke. Great detail as usual.

Another great video. Missed you guys! Any news on the project?

We need aluminum engine coolant tank 👌🏾

What sort of a ball park figure does all that work cost, so owners can factor that in to running a 997 ?

very informative ! thanks

You are almost like a factory now with those engine out jobs 😆.

Great information as usual, these look like typical proactive maintenance jobs….are the cars similar in mileage and age?

There was a dead spider

Hi, bit of topic.... I habe a 997.1 c4s... 06 on 46k. Full history.... Ive noticed the fans at the front seem to come on instantly. On amd off... Ive turned of the fans to see if the ac was causing it... Still the same... Anything you guys have come across. All temps are fine

I was thinking I'd drop my 997 engine in order to do the AOS and all of the plastic bits and the injectors and whatever else I can with it out, as a proactive measure. I have 100k miles. you didn't mention the AOS on either of these engines. Are you seeing that they are not an issue on the 3.6 997?

From the USA, just curious how long it takes to pull an engine? I'd love to see a video of that, step by step; from the car coming in the garage to getting to where you began this video.

Did anyone mention AC pipe ?
