You obviously have a death-wish.

Vandit-
I think you need to go back and redo your projects using the right stuff

This is really helpful, thanks Jason!

Should I throw out the non-contentious question on whether to apply anti-seize to spark plugs and wheel studs now

Default ht optimoly

I think Porsche has a label glitch cause I can confirm that p/n 000 043 004 00 is copper grease from sunset 2 month ago but on tube it says NR_ optimoly paste. so

I have a tube of Olista Longtime 3EP that also says NR Optimoly... German part numbers are preceded with Nr? so I wonder if they print NR Optimoly on the side of every tube? That would explain why the tubes of OlistaMoly2 were labeled as Optimol-NR even when OlistaMoly2 was superceded to the higher temperature OptiTemp-PU35.
