MAT ARMSTRONG BROKE MY PORSCHE 911 GTS
After the highs of finally getting my crash damaged Porsche Carrera GTS back on the road last week, this week has definatly been the lows and the realisation that I might even be further in debit due to a broken engine! Even though I had a huge amount of help from Mat Armstrong, his dad, Phil, Chris and a few other it looks like the Nurburgring trip is off dyno a major turbo failiure! Sorry in advance for the long episode!

I think it shows a lot of character that Matt is bringing up everyone that's around him. ❤❤❤ hi from America 🤙🏼
Cant believe how calm you seem rolling with the punches from the car. Hope she’s up and running sweet for you soon👍
Great video with superb content. Hats off to you for working so hard to get her ready for the trip. I’m looking forward to part 2!
"not come through the block yet"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mat is like the cool kid in school. Everyone wants him on there channel
That piano beat.!🔥🔥😂
Ouch. I can almost smell it burning from here. 😣🚗 💨
PADM stands for Porsche Active Drivetrain Mounts. It's a system that's designed to improve the handling of a Porsche by reducing vibrations and movements in the engine and gearbox area. PADM combines the benefits of hard and soft gearbox mounts to provide more precise and stable handling during load changes and on fast curves. It also helps to maintain driving comfort on uneven roads.hope that helps.
Can't believe you lent Mat a faulty car 😂😂

New subscriber… from MA …this is a really good collaboration ….epic content… Well done everyone 😎👌🏼
Loving your relationship with your dad, priceles.
Good to see that despite all the crazy technology in modern cars, sometimes the old wood and hammer is still the way to go 😅 🔨
you just gained a new subscriber ... your song selection really hooked me.
"It's like it's not moving," love that diagnosis.
Thanks for sharing, scares the s&&t out of me what can go wrong with my Carrera 4gts. Hopefully will never happen, appreciate the the filming and effort to make this, helps all owners with such good exposure and transparency. Personally I can’t go near anything without it breaking, I’m a dealership dream, they’re all I’ve got.

Excellent. I feel your pain, despite the humour. Trick machinery is that bit more fragile than a regular vehicle.
Good for you boys hard work and dedication blessings to you your family and friends and associates 😉👍
I was following one of these on sighting laps at the start of a track day at Silverstone last year and you could see fire coming out of the exhausts on the overun. I have seen another since also let go.
Good luck Matt, getting that in the container, without damage
cant beleive how calm this guy is id be crying
The smoke is a sign that a given fluid has evaporated or burned either on a heated engine component or at some point in being sent to the exhaust. In the case of leaking oil, it can also represent the failure of the oil-air separator to separate the oil from the waste gases

It's definitely oil getting either to the airbox, or directly to the exhaust somehow, makes you wonder if they checked the airbox. Does the Porsche have an oil air separator as standard? if so you could be onto something, but I'm not sure it does, otherwise it is likely the turbo as they suspect, but hey he has replaced both the turbo and PCV valve. Made me laugh that none of them seemed to know exactly what the PCV valve does 😂
Uhh saw the bolt "rally" and imagine this is not even a very old car. I guess all the chemicals are killing the metal in winter😮 That's why I don't drive my 996TT X50 in winter in Estonia😬 good luck with the channel!
No probs, Mat and his dad will fix it in a jiffy! 🤗
Mat has become Porsche expert 😂🥳🥳
Just had a turbo replaced on my 991.2 Carrera 4 GTS, looks like exactly the same issue. Oil pipes into the turbo leaking oil. Smoke on start up and sometimes under load. Pipes and turbo replaced under warranty otherwise the bill would have been eye watering.

This happened on my 911.2 4S a few years ago. The turbos are a common issue on the 911.2 gen. You can buy the turbos from Borg Warner directly for £2k a side. You'll need the oil feed lines too (it's actually those that cause this failure)... Well documented and known issue by Porsche...
I'm thinking AOS from the first time it blew smoke.
Great Success!
You should double nut the stud with two bolts and tighten them together to remove the stud. Probably hasn’t reached you in time but that’s how you remove them.
You can see the pain on his face.
the turbo chargers go bad on the 991.2 models or it could also be the oil pump that doesn’t suck out the extra oil from the turbo oil tanks
That Porsche running like a Golf diesel 😂😂😂
Great video with no blame game proper car guys. 😂❤
you can get nut breaker removal kit if rounded
4:24 The same thing happened to my 991.2 Carrera 4 GTS last week. It's currently in the dealer for diagnostics.

Yes unfortunately it’s a well known issue with the 991’s. A friend 991 Cab blew when in Germany and yes it was a Turbo related issue

It was indeed the turbo. It was full of oil.
The crankcase ventilation system is blocked, or a tube could be cinked or smthng
You showed exactly how difficult these cars are to work on
Need to get PlusGas on those bolts
Superb vid
Great vid … only issue is the shaky camera and moving it around so fast … a bit off putting tbh fellas, …. Get a gimble stabiliser it will really help. 👍🏻
Replace the bolts with stainless steel one’s while you have the opportunity?
Poor mat trying to explain 😂😂😂😂😂
Same happened to mine, it was a cam sensor😉👍
Never owned a Porsche but I knew that was an oil seal in the turbo in 2 minutes. Oil cools the bearings in the turbo, when the seal goes bad it lets oil into the air side of the turbo and the engine sucks it in.
Omg mats Dad is called Tony!! Cheers lads
My dog loved the random squeaks.

Sorry I couldn't find anything else to hide the swearing!
Is it the classic turbo problem that affects the 991’s?
Interesting, it’s like the Porsche just decided f these spark plugs I want new ones.. normally when a spark plug deteriorates it does it gradually.
Porsche Active Drivetrain Mounts (PADM) Strong braking system with multi-collision brake.
I cant believe Mats Dad has a name. Hows it going Tony? I thought you looked like a Dennis (The Menace) 😁😁
Love the car stuff, but how about some videos from the bmw bike racing???
What does the V stand for in the PCV valve?
The failure is caused by the turbo oil pipes If you just replace the turbo it will fail again.
😄Sounds like a 70-80's vw beetle.
The false giggles are infectious.
Matt broke it Matt fixes it..
Did it happen between 2nd and 3rd?
Sounds like a proper VW beetle air-cooled
I bet he stop laughing when Matt left
Cheers Mat!!!.. Let u off? How many new subscribers 😮😮lolz
PADM=Porsche Active Drivetrain Mount
You would think Porsche would put Galvanised nuts & Bolts on things like Turbos ! But Galvanised are Heavier than normal steel !

How does the turbo get to that state after 30k miles, joke for such an expensive car.

And thats why id take a N/A 911

Wonder the number of hours spent on the car. Were that costed, that would bankrupt an average punter 😵💫
been mapped by any chance???? 🤣🤣🤣 that would be the first thing id remove.
Normally mat repairs cars, but not today xD
Mat knowledge of cars at all
So, the turbo was fuck*d because the PCV valve was shooting too much oil into it?
Fuel?
Sounds like it's got a Beetle engine fitted.... 😂

Don't worry, he just broke so he can fix it 🤣 everything going as planned.
John deere engine in that I'd say 😂
Should have got @MatArmstrong to fix it. It would have made great content for his channel.
Sounds like an LS V8, just as even idle.... 😂

Could be turbo seal issue

Coincidences do not happen. No way would two plugs fail at the same time. Therefore, there is at least one other problem which took out the plugs.
Bash it you buy it mates rules
Turbo
Oil getting into turbo
That cat looked wrong wouldnt it be best to empty it out
Turbos... Should have got a 991.1
Why is it that mat is suddenly breaking people's cars everywhere?
This will fail again The modified pipes come with new catch tanks also.
it's the turbo,replace both
matt will rebuild
Head gasket
Boom first like 👊🏻
Got to say tne engine looks like a real lack of servicing

Keep revving it 😂 that’s smart
Thank Mat for yet another subscriber 😂 7.1k + me
