Camshaft Deviation Values...when to act
schwartzki replied to schwartzki's topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
That was the answer I was expecting but hoping not to hear JFP. This would be a motor in replacement: I have searched but cannot find a list of parts involved for doing the pad replacement, o-rings, gaskets, single use bolts, spark plug tube replacements, etc. Which timing lock tool is needed for motor in work? Thanks -
Camshaft Deviation Values...when to act
schwartzki posted a topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
Good afternoon all, 1yr into ownership of my 2000 Boxster S manual 87k miles. Have short rattle during startup. IMS was done. Finally got around to reading my camshaft deviation values after a good drive. Bank 1 is -5.23 Bank 2 is -4.25 Values are steady at idle and 3k rpm. Cam phases are working correctly. No CEL. My idle has some variability to it but no misfire counts. Have not replaced hydraulic tensioners yet. Running 5W40 oil. My understanding is the up to 6 is considered "normal" and don't need replacement till they get to 6. My question is do I need to do the Cam chain guides and other chain tensioners this year or if they can go another season? Trying to keep my annual servicing budget a tad reasonable and already have another big list this year.
