    Yesterday, together with a qualified garage mechanic, we changed the plugs on my 981 Cayman. There are several differences between the 987 and 981, and to help those who want to change their 981 plugs here they are. The rubber/plastic wheel well protection pieces are held in with more screws than the 987, the key difference being a screw underneath the bodywork, easy to miss but will stop you removing the part. The coils are held in with just one Torqz headed bolt. There are no Oxygen sensors or hoses in the way on the left side of the car........however, it is my impression that there is less room for manoeuvre in the 981 than the 987 and you definitely need extensions for your socket set and Torqz screw set AND flexible knuckles as next to none of the plug removals can be a straight out removal. As to tips, using an old piece of rubber hose to hold the new plug as you finger tighten it gives more feel than using a socket. Problems we had, apart from the general lack of access issue, were on one coil the coil came out leaving the rubber part of the coil still on the plug.....which then proved very hard to extract, and despite my plug socket being brand new, the socket preferred more than once to disconnect rather than pull out the plug. We were using a car lift so working at a comfortable height, and I would definitely not attempt this job working off a floor jack, as accessing the front cylinder in each side is particularly challenging. In summary, I feel on the 981 this is just about a DIY job, but only for the dexterous and only if you can put the car up on a proper lift/ramp.

    This video is outstanding and the best that I have found for the 987 spark plug change. I am in the middle of changing the spark plugs on my 2005 Boxster and was having great difficulty unfastening the electrical connector from the coil pack. The 7:40 mark of your video made everything crystal clear. Thank you! (I had thought that I could just leave the boot on... Doh!)
    I have bookmarked your page, and I will be back for more. I only wish that I had found your site before I changed my air filter and my oil/oil filter. Ha, ha.
    Keep up the good work, and thanks again, Sir!

    Just did this to my Cayman. It was idling a bit rough and according to all the records they had never been changed. My car, has 90k kms on it and now it seems be more resposive. The process took me almost 3 hours but I was being very cautious. All but one of my spark coil had big cracks so glad I did this and thank you again for sharing. You probably saved me a grand and it gives me confidence to try doing more repairs

    Superbly done videos! I enjoy the lightheartedness to them too (yellow and blue coils will make it go faster! I agree!). A suggestion is to use some copper anti-seize on your spark plugs, it can sure make getting them out next time much easier. Doesn't take much, just a streak down one side of the threads. Nice torque wrench too!

  • @davidmurphy6229
    @davidmurphy6229 7 лет назад

    Great video - ordered same parts for my 2007 Cayman S. Took me about 2 + hours. No surprises. Best if you have a lift for more room to work. Not sure how you can fit a torque wrench for a couple of the harder to get plugs on each side. Had to go with my best estimate. The other two on each side worked fine.

And maybe a vid describing the average maintenance per year to own a porsche. Continue the great work, fantastic videos :)

    @deep6thisdeep6this92 3 года назад

    i use the rear shock mount as a rear jacking point. seeing as how only one wheel will be lifted off the ground at a time, i am more confident that no damage will be done to the frame. (dealers maintain that only the four designated jacking points can be depended on to not do damage, or... "maybe you want to bring it into our dealership for service?")
    BTW, i noticed that on another video on the same subject, that a heat shield needed to be removed too. probably a different model year. glad to see my 2007 doesn't have them. they looked like a PITA to remove and replace.
    in lieu of a few hockey pucks (couldn't find any where i live) i bought a two foot long 2x4 and cut it into five 3 1/2" sections and used them on each of my four jackstands plus one on the jack to get the car completely off the ground and level for things like an oil changes, etc. ...very secure. the soft pine easily compressed and thus accommodated any irregularities between my jack, jackstands and the jacking points on the car.

    the more extensions you use, the less accurate your torq wrench since the extensions twist. Also it's good to double check the spark plug gaps with feeler gauges. I've bought spark plugs that the gapping was off by a lot.

    • @SummitLife

    How do you diagnose the bad coil?

      +will shu I figured it was a misfire, and what causes that is either plugs or coils. I took it into strong porsche of salt lake and they ran the code real quick for me and confirmed that it was a 4th cylinder misfire. They didnt charge me either!

    How do you know how much torque you need to apply to the bolts?!

    Well, good video, but 2 things actually what I do recommend. First is to use compressed air right after you remove coils and before you remove spark plugs to remove any contamination which could get into your engine later. Secondly use cooper paste on spark plugs before screwing them as this is aluminium engine block, will be a nightmare next time you try to change plugs again if you don't.

    Nice video,where is the link for the coil packs ? Are coils changed when spark plugs changed 100,000 km.Please get a $7.00 breaker bar for the lug bolts.

      +Stephen Anderson the links are in the video description, just click show more. Im not sure when if Porsche changes the coils and plugs at 100,000km. and yeah thats a good idea, I just used an old tool I got for free haha

    Wouldn't the smell of oil on the plug concern you about a damaged seal, gasket, piston rings or cylinder?

    Did your check engine light come off by driving the vehicle or did you clear the check engine light yourself?

      When I did this fix, the light turned off on it's own. I now have a reader but back then I didnt

      I cant remember exactly. You can try to stop in a Porsche dealership and see if they can delete your codes for free

      Use a Durametric cable, it comes handy when maintains Porsches. Depending on the cable type, the software and cable can do much everything like deleting seatbelt chimes if you want to change to Recaro bucket seats to reading codes of the engine.
