Update, the third attempt solved the problem. It was definitely the HPFP. Problem solved and all is well. To guys like me, the support and insight of the members of this forum are priceless. Thanks to all.

Hi all, while replacing my HPFP and lowering the engine I snapped my engine mount bolt. I know this is a long shot but does anyone have a pair of extra engine mounts for sale? I'm in Norther California around Sacramento.

I have a pair of original mounts that are in pretty good shape - 11 years old (25k miles) but I think they still have life in them. If you’re willing to pay for shipping, happy to send them to you. Feel free to PM me.

HI @bradnic ,
did you see post #25 in this thread?
It's basically wax based lubricant for the thread, not a sealant.
Proper joint stress depends on torque applied and the coeficient of friction of the lubricated part surfaces, carefully worked out by our favorite german car boffins.

Today my Indy told me Porsche has said they will not be avail until 2025. He said prior to that, Feb/Mar was their date.
If true, this is bad news. My car has the long start when cold (but no codes) so I’m not sure how long it will be until (or if) it gives…

Mine just went at 114k miles, looking for one.

I read somewhere that when the HPFP goes, the ECU runs the car in limp mode by increasing fuel injector dwell time and running fuel pressure completely off of the in-tank electric fuel pump. It can only generate very low power levels this way, but it's enough to get you home. I don't know if this is accurate, but it is what I read somewhere.

Followed this thread including the coolant plug shortcut. All good. After installation the pump was working just fine but I did run into an P1025 fuel pump adaptation. In case someone else bumps into this after restarting, it's related to the battery being disconnected. The fix is simple but I didn't see it within this thread.
Without touching the throttle pedal turn the car on but do not start the engine. Leave it for at least 60 sec. Turn the key back to off. Then start the car and drive. It should clear. Don't clear this with your code reader as it resets the adaptation.

Is this a useable tool for the fuel system pump process after HPFP install? I have looked in my tool and don't see anywhere to start a fuel pump etc. I am going to be pissed if I purchased a diagnostic/reset tool only. I thought I bought the better tool. Who's the tool now....
