Is the 27mm the one they don't make anymore? If so I might be interested.

I'm not sure... I've had them for about 1.5 to 2 years. the 27mm wrench is on his site, but I don't know if it is different.

24mm is the old size. Updated rollers are 27mm. I dont even think they make the 24mm rollers anymore.

From the arnnworx site.....

In the very early cars Porsche used all-steel rollers and idlers that had a 24mm offset nut. As stated earlier, Porsche went through several design changes to address problems and one of the first of those was to swap the 24 for 27mm rollers and idlers. Even the early cars that were serviced by Porsche got the upgrade, so there are almost none of the old 24mm hardware around anymore. And, this is why we do not sell the 24mm wrenches anymore.

$100 is a little high for the set. For $15 more you could buy them brand new. Just my two cents.

Thanks for the clarification! Mine still has the steel rollers that are 24mm.

If you want to pay $15 more for the same thing, be my guest.

You're selling two year old, used tools for $15 less....Not exactly a good deal. And I can roll my eyes too.

I'm not asking if it is a good deal, any other discussion on the matter can take place elsewhere. The tools function just as they did before I used them for 30 minutes. If someone is looking to purchase these tools and would like a slight discount over buying new, let me know.

What a great deal!

Just for clarification on 968 application, the flywheel lock works on the 968 tiptronic but not the 6-speed. The two wrenches work on all 968s.

I'm looking for a new 27mm wrench (I sacrificed mine and ground it to 30mm to work on my benz), so if anyone needs the lock and the pin wrench, let me know! GLWS!
