- In this DIY my coworker asked for some help to change the spark plugs, ignition coils, fuel filter, and do an oil change on his 2004 Porsche 911 Turbo (996). This maintenance procedure can also be applied to 997 models.

just spent the weekend hooning a 996 turbo coupe! Love these cars
+Tedward omg yeah man after we finished, took it on a test drive...crazy machine. Was very impressed by how it handled corners at speed 😮!
Porsche channel now. Excellent
^
Good job on the video, I haven't changed my plugs and coils yet but I am looking forward to it. Some say it's a pain, I think it's an honor, I'm gonna enjoy it lol it's all in the perspective :)
Great stuff
Need to do this on my 997tt
Super helpful
Thanks
Great video.. I plan on buying a 2014 or 2015 911 targa . This video lets me know what I have to look forward to far as service.
I Winced when I saw them cranking on the main oil drain plug, you need to support that with another wrench on top so you don't crack you oil tank!
Great video, well done!
Thank you :)!
I am going to make a suggestion. On the boost hoses, you should consider replacing the clamps-the wire looking ones. I cannot imagine they cost that much but when I did the spark plug change on mine, one of the hoses came off on the test drive. Same thing happened on a friend's 996TT. On that one we felt that the clamps were on solid before buttoning it up and it happened anyway. Just a thought. Thanks for sharing your video.
Thanks man you save my a** 😆
I winced watching you tighten down that one spark plug. Looked to me like way too much torque on it - but no way you'd know because you didn't use a torque wrench.
Agreed. Very poor technique. Could easily have stripped a thread. Most mechanics just go by feel and stay on the side of caution me included. You just don't need that much torque on an alloy head, the steel thread and seat of the plug will seal very easily. Best to put a bit of copper grease on the thread as well makes it easy to turn much smoother. No grease on the seat of the plug or the mating surfaces. Often the manufacturers torque settings are stupidly high so I ignore, there are sometimes different torque figures out there to confuse matters. Any mechanic will just know when it's tight you can feel it start to bite, don't go silly! It's just a normal car, alloy head, regular plug, be sensible.
@@mark4lev I totally agree, I was wondering why he was doing that, thought maybe it was me over analyzing again.
Good job ..
Thanks!
funniest part for me is I perked up at the 39 second mark about the cup holder add-on :)
...and the sunglasses sliding across the dashboard haha!
Pain in the ass to change sparkplugs on a porsche... Been there and done that.... :P
Looks like your buddie needs "Porsche Light Savers" for his taillights, ijs.
Wow that is one engineered car! Lot of work to get to those spark plugs. Was that a full 8 hr job? Great video guys!
Feels stuiped design to me
@5:39 Whoa, whoa.. Take it easy there chief. They're spark plugs, not lug nuts.
Please tell me you cleaned the oil off the tire @ 2:10
+4x yes 😂
