Thank GOD someone with a Turbo 958 actually made a DIY on the brakes! I also have a 2011 Turbo and just finally was even able to find a decent price and availability on the hard-to-find, expensive and HUGE front 390mm rotors lol! Great video, love starting off letting everyone know about putting the air suspension into jack mode and going over your tools. I was following guides on non Turbo models when I was buying the parts and tools I needed, and I think I bought some of the wrong stuff since I thought we needed a 14mm triple square, but those were the non-Turbo models... and none of the other videos or DIY write up guides online talk about bleeding the brakes with new fluid at the end. Sigh.
That was a great video. Very helpful. Made my 958.2 TT brake swap a breeze! Two comments: You need to invest in a pair of caliper assembly pins! I got mine on FCSEuro and it made supporting and aligning the calipers sooo much easier. Also, for those who don’t have wheel studs, a wheel hangar bolt serves the same purpose when mounting a rotor as it does mounting wheels.
Thank you. Genuinely really helpful. Doing my front pads tomorrow/today now. Not sure I have the t60 bit though so no doubt will need to buy one. Not come across ‘triple square’ bits before. It’s a 2013 UK spec car I’m doing so not sure which I’ll need.
Can you provide an update on the set of rotors/brake pads? Would like to know the results re: brake dust, squeaking, and any difference in bringing the CTT to a complete stop.
I was going to order shw rotors for my gts but left rotor is out of stock in every store I looked. Also zimmerman are out of stock. What a shame that not many aftermarket companies make 390mm rotors for cayenne’s
+@elcolin_ I love the head unit, but don’t know anything about it because it came like that when I bought it. I’ll research it one day and make a video about it I’m sure.
