Yes was hard, but enjoyable. I am sure the neighbours think I'm a little mad!

Will be taking her on a run tomorrow as its suppose to be a nice day, just to clear her out a bit and also to find out what my new exhaust sounds like!

Enjoy your trip to Ben Nevis.

Preaching to the choir guys, it was booked in for the alignment before I even started :) I can't understand people who touch anything related to suspension and don't get their alignment checked afterwards. The 996 is super sensitive to alignment changes as I'm sure most of us should know.

 
bought a new wheel covered it with alcantara and fitted flappy paddles very pleased with the out come.

 
That's a nice retrim who did it ? Like the way they covered the rear hub as well, what have you done with the airbag cover, standard?

Hi Geoff found this guy in Sutton does a fantastic job. The air bag can be done he said but wanted to see if it bothers me first. He was doing a boxster consel etc with red stitching and it looked superb. I asked him to cover the rear because the wheel came of a Manuel boxster which was black also I didn't want to leave the tip button on. The drive is such a different pleasure now.

 
As you say nikmartin it's a total transformation btw loved the video clip. Going to goodwood next weekend for the carrea charity day

The wiring is simple Geoff once the air bag has been disconnected you will have to reset it.

didnt have to reset anything on mine - was advised that if you-

turn on ignition

disconnect battery

leave 10 mins before removing airbag

reconnect airbag

reconnect battery

having done that twice mine seems to be all good without any intervention required

 
Just changed the two oil core plugs on the bottom of the heads. One had a slight weep so thought I'd do them both thanks Richard for the part number etc. Easy job but satisfying

 
Just had a major service and new brake fluid done at Porsche centre Portsmouth, it should of cost me £490 but with pcgb discount it only cost me £440 😜😜 so therefore very pleased !!
