Why would anyone buy a used Porsche from anywhere else? I hope your attention to detail continues as your business inevitably grows from all the graft you’re clearly putting in. Smashing it lads.

Gr8 video on the 991.1 common fixes...so wondering your trials to fix the engine fault are charged to the customer, no free dinners. Although not the issue you can say preventative like the, air filters, throttle body, labor it all adds up.

Happy New Year gents - Ollie is a legend! Great work all around and the website looks spot on.

[BarryCoombs]

Great videos lads - only thing spoiling them are the endless adverts but that's out of your hands.

Great video guys . Thanks for explaining stuffs as well, I love more on the tech side & you were pretty good at it...

[rosscharman]

Another great video Luke 👍🏻
Simple and informative 😏

[daviddunville]

Brilliant video as usual, hope you have a successful 2022, hopefully book a service for my 997s .2

One of your best videos Luke!
I love seeing these where you get down to the nitty gritty.
I love the way Ollie shows off his skill and turns around and gives his great smile for the camera.
My mercedes windscreen washer system is inside the hood like that one and it is a pain to keep functioning. The plastic tees and elbows fit over the inlet to the washer nozzles and loose their grip and seal so the water doesn't make it through the nozzle.
Use a needle to clean out the nozzles. They get hard water deposits in them from people using tap water in them. They do not need to be replaced.
Those headers could stand powdercoating or ceramic coating to keep them from rusting especially in your wet climate.
Cheers and happy new year!

Agree with you Luke the exhaust sound on the gen 1 superior, although I would say that!

[nathanbryant]

I had the same issue and resolution for the AC in my 991 recently. Was expecting the worst but a refill had sorted it all

Greetings from New Jersey shore, USA. Right, guv.

[gmdodd]

You mentioned a recall on changeover solenoids. And that there are 8 of them on the 991.1 2012.
Can you confirm and should I be taking my car in to Porsche?

Thanks Greg

[Psstnbooly]

Nice video. Wondered if you had a secret for the dreaded exhaust bolts and how to deal with them?

[Betheball]

hi, have you ever come across a passenger side window not going back up when unlocking the car? tiny bit. but creates a crazy wind noise on mine.

[Ahmadx]

@friends green Porsche Great video! What exactly did you do to free the stuck exhaust valve? Mine are seized and have had no luck trying to get them loose!
