Default Timing belt; Porken tensioner installation done

You can see my original thread here:
https://rennlist.com/forums/928-foru...e-928-a-9.html

Well my car finally got a new Timing belt installed with Porken tensioner parts.The car was at the shop for 3 days.
They charge me BND$400 for the service charge(Timing belt installation) which is around 200plus USD which is OK(Lots of work needed just to change the T- belt). I took all my old parts back. In total- The parts I bought from Roger- costs me 1400 Brunei money( In total) which is reasonable.

I can confidently drive the car now but few more things needed to be address.

1) The Mechanic who did my car recommend me to bring my car to the Porsche dealer for diagnostic test to check the " PSD ! Differential Anti Lock sign + Speedo not working on the dash.

2) Aircon- Well next 2 weeks- I'm bringing it to a AC specialist for a check up & will ask them to install the parts that I bought from Roger.



I took the car this afternoon from the shop & have some Arabic lunch with the car


Thanks to this forum- I can source my parts much cheaper than the dealer & also have some good advice from most members:

Please be sure to replace the rubber fuel/transmission lines on your car. Though it has very few miles the rubber lines and hoses on your car are still old and probably dried out. Several cars have been destroyed by fire. Let's keep yours alive and young.

Z - dont' wait! The visual condition is very deceiving. See my find of the return line (under airbox) 14 months ago. It cracked and broke apart in my hand! Your front one between fuel rails and under the oil filler is original.

It really doesn't take that long. Maybe a few hours at best for some peace of mind!
