It makes sense to repair parts if possible, e.g. ball joints instead of full wishbone. It's possible to measure a faulty bearing and find a new one of the correct size and type and do a repair much more economically as you showed on your video. Great saving compared with the manufacturers price,very usefull and informative video. 👍

Would you be able to answer a question I have, I recently brought a petrol strimmer from SGS engineering and I had to return as the unit was too heavy for me to use. When SGS received the item back after I confirmed I did not use it try to, they are saying as there was fuel in the priming bulb they can not expect my return as they are saying I put fuel in it, and attempted to start it, which I did not. My question is would there still be fuel in this bulb left over from SGS testing this unit as surely they would have tested it. I would really appreciate your thoughts why there is fuel in the priming bulb. Many thanks.

Its great to see some more Porsche content, especially the 996 C4S - such a good looking car. I'm hoping to make the move from a 986 to a 996 C4S soon, seen some higher mileage examples at sensible price ranges and I'm not afraid of getting my hands dirty. It's good to see you can keep the costs down by doing a little research and completing the work yourself. Keep up the good work, I find myself looking forward to your videos.

Then there was about 100mm of rigid at 39 mm before the flex. Just a thought you can get stepped silicone hoses. Maybe 39mm one end and then a tight fit ove the larger flexible section. Preferable to replacing. I'm told it's s hassles to replace.

So all that large black tube does is allow you to fill the oil from the trunk. Why not just cut that , and splice a high quality rubber hose over the cut, secure with two clamps? if the black molded plastic tube won't hold the pressure of some hose clamps, just put a tube/bushing under it that will help support it. This job should take 10 minutes not 5 hours.
