Amazing job❤

Just changed my plugs a few days ago. Took me about 1.5 hrs. The hardest one was the middle on the drivers side because the cat is in the way. The front left was easy, I could get my hand in there. It helps to remove the front wheel liner on the drivers side. I used a bunch of extensions and a universal, working on the outside of the suspension in the wheel well. The hardest thing was getting a grip on the coils to pop them off. If you still have the original coils, spend the money to replace them with the updated versions. Two of my originals (2014 Cayman S) went bad within the first 20K miles and is a known issue. You don't need anti-seize. My plugs had 5 years and a ton of track days on them and they came out effortlessly. It also makes the threads sticky and will make getting the plugs out in a few years much harder when it is gummed up.

Danke für dieses Video.

best video on this, nice camera work

Thanks for the video. I just did this PM. I decided to remove the rear floor liner, and it made access to the front pkugs/coils much easier. I could reach around the front of the exhaust manifold for access.

Good idea!

i changed my plugs and coils out a couple of weeks ago. the car runs much better and it took me nearly all day.

Coils too? I didn’t do that but might have to in the future. I noticed my car ran better with new plugs as well. What made you do the coils as well? Just to get ahead of things?

@@JordanPayneLV I was up on 47,000 miles so i figured if I'm going to take the wheels off, remove the wheel well shields, i might as well replace the coils while I'm at it. it run so much better, it was totally worth. next project , fuel injectors and AOS.

@@ThatCaymanGuy nice! Keep it going and the car will run forever :)

btw i reccomend a borescope and pressure test. These engine do not have bore scoring or headgasket issues but if you have the tools it's great peace of mind for a long term owner.

987.2 S will develop bore score the same way as .1 engines .. it’s only a matter of time as they are newer

I'm not a mechanic by any means, but I have good mechanical sense. I replaced the plugs on my 987.2 in under 2 hours for all 6 plugs on my first time ever doing a plug change. Definitely a DIY job to save around $1000.

You must never put anything on the threads , the heat they are subject to will cause the anti seize to seize them in.

Don’t do it. It will mess up the torque value & potentially strip the thread. That’s why you have to change them every 4 years, no matter what mileage. Don’t do it on classics either!

I've been using anti-seize on all spark plugs I replace, for at least 25 years, and have never had a problem. In fact, it's the plugs that don't have it that give problems. Note too, how little anti-seize Jordan has used - no way that is going to cause any problems. As always, though, your results may vary.

The main reason is that the threads are the ground for the spark plugs to the heads, anything reducing electrical conductivity will cause power reduction and misfire. That’s why Porsche says: NO ANTI SEUZE on the threads

Could you tell me the part number? Thank you

The No is a safe answer from Porsche. If you know what you’re doing antiseize will do you good. It is the torque you have to watch out. Jordan reduced the torque value to 20ftlb that compensated the reduced friction with the antiseize.

NEVER put anti seize on spark plugs, even Porsche service manual says that. The reason: THREADS are the ground for the spark plug to the engine heads, anything that reduces electrical conductivity will cause reduction in power and misfire That’s a big mistake 2nd reason, reduction of torque value during tightening

No misfiring or grounding issues so far with my car, but that makes sense, thanks for the additional insight for the viewers
