  1. Well after ready all this I took on the plug change challenge today. I did not drop the mufflers and was making good time. Probably could have finished in about 2.5 hours except I failed to notice on the drivers side middle cylinder, the wiring harness plug had gotten pinned between the engine and the coil. As I tightened the screws down I cracked the coil female-end plug receptor. More like snapped it off. :( So off to the dealer for parts. Hopefully someone will read this and be sure to clear the coil male end plug out of the way before tightening down the coil or snap it into place while the coil is inserted but not yet screwed down. Lessoned learned. The entire time I was under there looking at the few muffler bolts I kept asking myself "why didn't I drop this out?" BTW...the dealer says Porsche updated the coil for the 997 and recommended I buy all six which I did. $$$$$$$$$$
