Hi Guys

Have had the front water pipes renewed as one had a minor leak. Whilst pressure testing the system another leak on pipework to the water pump was located. My specialist PCA in Tewkesbury says the motor must be removed to access the pipe. This prompted the thought - "what else should be done whilst motor is out?" Its a tiptronic so no clutch to worry about.
 
rear brake lines, plugs and coil packs. Plus I know there is an oil line that needs the engine dropping (Mine needs doing at next service!)
 
3 x plastic pipe fittings under the heat exchangers about £7.00 each but defiantly an engine out job the plastic goes brittle and fall to bits not very porsche
