Default Porsche Technical Reference Index

I put together this index of Porsche Technical Reference documents and I thought it might be useful for others. Someone gave me the source index and I added URL locations where the PDF versions of the documents can be found online. I have a preview below but there is more data in the link. If you have more reference information to include reply to this thread or shoot me a message and I'll update the master index. If you would like to help me manage the index I'll add you as an admin. Suggestions appreciated.

Added some new files today to the 928 Technical Reference IndexAlso, here is the master directory of all the 928 related documents beyond the technical references. This originated as a zip drive provided to me by another list member. I uploaded it to Google Drive for my personal use and shared it publically so we can all benefit. Just be aware the files in there are loosely organized and there may be duplicates or stuff that is not categorized well. I have been picking away at organizing the info as I go.

More items are being added all the time click the link for the most up to date info: 928 Technical Reference Index

Fantastic effort Michael!
You are lucky in a way, since a lot of documentation from the 928 era was originally print material and is public domain at this point. I have been trying to track down documentation for my 987.1 Cayman and of course much of that is digital and protected.
I see the titles, which are general in nature. Do you remember anything that goes into the design of the lubrication system?

Great work Benno!
Do you think the 928OC might be a place where it can be hosted too? (multiple locations should one go down)?

The engine sections of the 1978 and 1979 service info guides have the most complete sections on the engine lubrication circuit and design .
  1. WKD 458 221 1978 Service Information
  2. (unknown) 1979 Service Information

Thanks for the nice comments. I'll be adding to this list and updating the thread as I find more docs in my files. I'll update this thread as I add documents.

Tom, sure we can put these files in 928OC as well. These files are all hosted currently in a Google Drive directory which is a cloud-hosted solution. The storage needs for all these files require about 10GB which I pay for.

Holy cow, that's incredible!!! I've been collecting these documents as I find them for as long as I've been into 928's. I always thought it would be cool to complete the set but now I don't have to! Thank you

If we ever get around to updating the FAQ this could be the first section.

Added WSM links to the 928 Technical Reference Index.

WSM Manual Volume 1
WSM Manual Volume 1A
WSM Manual Volume 2
WSM Manual Volume 3
WSM Manual Volume 4
WSM Manual Volume 5
WSM Manual Volume 6
WSM Manual Volume 7

I have a ton of Mercedes Technical reference information for the 3 and 4-speed automatic transmissions. I will give some thought to how to best add those. Maybe a separate tab on that google sheet.

Michael,

Some of the links lead to a wrong file and some are unreachable. You might want to check the repository for the correct links.
