I have a noise that sounds like "docka-docka-docka" as the chain tensioner builds up pressure, then the nose stops after a second or 3. I’ve had these changed the tensioners, but still get this noise (but less so). Will this ‘upgrade’ help to cure this particular cold start noise?
@@Barrabuoy ask the parts guy about the Classica discount. It is a discount on parts and workshop time as well. Australian dollar prices from Porsche Gold Coast. Crush washer $1.33, spring $21.89, piston $14.23. I also got an updated oil filter housing with the valve in it, $40 including filter pn 99610702055. I have a video on the going up in a few days.
Hi Can you tell me if these parts you list are ok for my 2002 Boxster S ? I looked on a porsche site and they say the piston is for 997 and other Caymens but mention nothing about a 986 in any variants. So i take it they must all be same sizes. Thanks
My oil pressure valve is leaking and I found your video thank you. I ran into a small problem. My valve does not have a screw head on it it’s just round. Any ideas on what the difference is? I do have a 2002 Boxster S with a 3.2 L engine.
Thanks for this, seems almost too good to be true, so simple! Definitely putting this on the list to do at the next oil change.

I would defiantly replace it on your next oil change. It won't hurt to have better oil pressure on start up even if it doesn't fix the noise.
@@TheEddysGarage , thanks, does this noise sound familiar and did your engine have this issue on cold start?
I didn’t have a noise
Hi excellent idea and very reasonable price in parts from pelican parts to Australia about $70AUSD
Way cheaper to get them from a dealer here in Australia. Remember we get a discount because of the age of these cars.
What’s the damage local costs ?
@@TheEddysGarage how do we get a discount? First I have heard of it.

@@TheEddysGarage what was the full part number of the piston ? I got 997 107 125 but I could not see the last two numbers ?
What should the oil pressure on a stock 996 be and what will it be with this valve?
Check out the forum link in the video description. It has a good bit of data on the before and after pressure
Great video :) Is the torque really to be 50nm for the bolt. In a renntech thread someone wrote that it should be only 25 nm.
Thank you

Yes it’s the one for your car.
What was the idle pressure before and after?
Links to before and after data are in the video description 😎
@@TheEddysGarage I missed it. What were they?
Pressure results from a Facebook group member: Before 1-1.2 bar, after 1.5-1.8 bar. Hopefully that helps.

I think your car is the “5 chain” version so it may be different but your local Porsche dealer can tell you from your vin
I think somebody has already ruined the screw...
