Default A little help for my mechanic?

I FINALLY got the green to put my shark in the shop. I have a new mechanic with a great rep for working on P cars (hard to find in mid MO) I was wondering if anyone had any quick print off of tips, tricks, or references to make his job just that much more fail proof for a WP/TB job? I dont want to offend him but I would still like to give a little something extra. Thanks.

Hmmmm ... which car might help, year and US or Euro.

Next read the top thread on the forum and search around. Lots of great linx.

You may also notice that many here make a distinction between Porsche mechanics and 928 mechanics. Not the same beasts at all.

Ask him if he knows about the hydraulic tensioner -- if he says yes, make him read the procedure while you're there.
