B+ usually refers to Battery Positive so there's probably a junction box where multiple power cables come together and they want you to remove the battery side of it...that's a guess!

Making great progress. Removing the right side (passenger side for you) transmission mount was a real pain in my TIP. Trans cooling gets in the way. After removing left side mount I had to wedge the transmission to the left to gain clearance. Briefly discussed in Porsche workshop manual.

nice video. Probably you should have washed the car, underneath and inside the engine compartment before doing this. I saw a lot of dirt and sand in many places that can go anywhere, into connectors, into open tubes... Regards

Yes good suggestion, thanks! Ideally a good dry ice cleaning 😎
Small tip: the power steering cap also fits directly on the pump after reservoir removal. Helps prevent dirt and debris from falling in. BTW great series.

No rest for you get back under there. Make sure you remember to retap that hole or fix the threads with thread inserts. Hope you don’t get any extra nuts or bolts when put everything back together. I call my extra over engineered extras 🤦🏻♂️.
