Michael, Great video(s) of the front and rear brakes. You make an easy job even easier with your great narrative along with superb camera work from your camera folks. On both videos (front/rear) you mention to check the outside and inside of the rotor for a ridge. However, you don't mention the wear dimples on the outer most part of the rotors, not all rotors have them, but the original Porsche rotors and the Sebro rotors I bought from FCP have them.
Hi John, none that we did on this vehicle as it was fairly low mileage. The process is the same for most European vehicles with the old-style adjuster like these have done through one of the lug bolt holes. We could certainly add this to our queue next time we work on this vehicle.
Founded in Germany, Otto Zimmermann has been developing, producing, and selling braking components for more than six decades. Zimmermann offers OE quality rotors for every European make including Audi, BMW, Porsche, and VW.
@@fcpeuro Thank you, I just finished and found I also didn't need the spreader, I used 2 small pry bars. Folks watching--don't forget to watch your brake fluid reservoir level. Thank you!
Keep the 997.2 content coming!

항상 좋은정보 감사합니다 늘 건강조심하세요
Another good video Mike like usual ..... Best Bronie tech on the net !!
So informative. Many thanks
Enjoy your 911!
I like the Porsche content
Wives watch make up videos, we watch this
My rear calipers don’t look like this on my .2.
fantastic video, very professional
Thank you! Cheers!
Any adjustment to the e-brake shoe position? Would like to know how to properly adjust these.

How do your rotors differ from the factory rotors ?

excellent video
Do you recommend this zimmermann rotor or would I go with OEM ,I have 997.2 turbo and I don’t want to reduce the brake efficiency thank you
You cannot go wrong with either of the options we offer on FCPEuro.com. We will always go Zimmermann over Genuine.
Using the brake spreader wasn't shown. Are you able to get the pistons all the way back by prying? Wondering which spreader to buy, if any.
Hey Dude, the pistons went back far enough with prying. A good spreader for this DIY would be LIS-29100.

Hi does the handbrake need manually adjusting or does it set itself ? Thanks.
It is a manual adjustment on the 997 models!
Thank you!
Our pleasure!
This was great
are there any big differences for a 997.1?
Same idea for the .1!
@@fcpeuro Much appreciated 🙏 got it done this weekend with help from your video and saved myself some money!
No anti seize or loctite?
Meh, not for these style brakes.
Im I the only one who spends like 20 minutes detailing each caliper?
😞 Promo-SM!!
Great as usual!, thanks! From the UK. 🫵💥
Thanks for watching!
