well, now I start to panic :-(
a)
regarding overtorquing:
I got info that 25Nm is the torque, this was confirmed yesterday at Porsche from the chief mechanic when I piced up the FPM seals.
b) regarding seal types:
I hat seen red, red-brownish ones in the www-search and asked the mechanic about that.
especially that some seals were discribed as thicker giving more torque downforce stability.
he said, that they/porsche has only these green ones from FPM and he had no issues since using them.
he also said that before you really reach 25Nm the flanges will already be tight snug to each other (case to case), so an over-torquing (like a valve cover seal) will not occur as the seal ring ins embedded and cant escape to the sides.
c)
regarding week spot on case behind and left to the cooler:
I ordered the compound as mentioned in the bulletin 999 415 451 40 (EUR 14,-)
does any one of you know as to what Loctite it compares to (if it does)?
I mean those 2K metal-added compunds of the Loctite 34xx series recommended to refurbish cracks, splice & co. on engine cases (e.g. L3463 or L3475).
any idea?
