The manual orchestrates suspension and steering alignment specifications, foundation bolt torque documentation, and wiring harness integrity checks across all model variants including RHD configurations.

Integrated Protocol

Reference data is included for anti-lock braking system diagnostics using PIWIS Tester instruments, encompassing static functionality assessment, hydraulic line verification, and electronic control unit interrogation. The document provides comprehensive schematic layouts for ABS pump operation, solenoid valve assignment protocols, and sensor responsiveness measurement. Alignment specifications are included for steering-angle sensor calibration procedures, requiring vehicle placement on measuring platforms with precise wheel geometry confirmation.

Operational Threshold

This manual covers air-conditioning system maintenance encompassing refrigerant extraction protocols, expansion valve positioning, evaporator access procedures, and compressor mounting verification. Diagnostic procedures are covered for climate control regulator coding using system tester interfaces, dryer replacement timing, magnetic coupling air gap measurement, and servo motor functional testing. The document includes torque specifications for refrigerant line connections to ensure proper circuit integrity.

Precise Logic-Path

Wiring diagrams are provided for transmission multi-function switch operation, selector lever cable routing, tiptronic control module programming sequences, and automatic transmission assembly procedures. The manual documents selector shaft sealing ring installation, transmission support mounting orientation, drive shaft coupling methodology, and torque converter bolt fastening patterns. Complete ATF filling capacity reference data appears throughout, alongside transmission control unit replacement programming instructions requiring PIWIS Tester connection protocols.

Core Framework

Occupant safety system documentation addresses airbag contact unit centering procedures, driver and passenger module removal sequences, side airbag mounting verification, head airbag connector protocols, and belt tensioner triggering assessment. AWS control unit calibration procedures are detailed with test weight application and passenger seat positioning requirements. The manual includes roll-over bar adjustment measurement dimensions, three-point seat belt installation methodology, and triggering unit programming sequences using specialized diagnostic equipment.

Core Nexus

Correct procedures for electrical connector locking mechanisms, battery disconnection protocols following airbag service work, and diagnostic fault code interpretation using PIWIS Tester instrumentation are documented throughout. The resource addresses vehicle handover procedures, adaptation value resetting for transmission control modules, and security code retrieval for steering angle sensor calibration. Safety protocols for refrigerant handling, pyrotechnical component storage, and hazardous material disposal requirements appear in dedicated procedural sections.

FAQ

Specify the **applicable** lubrication requirements for the automatic transmission. keyboard_arrow_down

9 liters is the filling capacity for a dry transmission, with a change quantity of 3.5 liters for ATF changes. Only ATF approved by Porsche must be used, and the ATF temperature must be maintained between 30-45°C during inspection to ensure accurate fluid level readings.

What is the **exact** testing parameter for pressure relief valve purge? keyboard_arrow_down

40 bar is the pressure relief valve purge pressure specification for the air-conditioning system, ensuring proper system protection during operation.

Calculate the **specific** torque requirement for the servo motor fastening screws. keyboard_arrow_down

1.2 Nm (1.0 ftlb.) ± 0.5 Nm is the tightening torque for servo motor fastening screws in the HVAC system, ensuring secure installation without damage to components.

What values are **designated** for refrigerant capacity in the climate control system? keyboard_arrow_down

900g R134a is the refrigerant quantity required, with 195 ± 15 cm³ of ND 8 refrigerant oil filling capacity for the air-conditioning system circuit.

Assess the **critical** magnetic clutch air gap specification for proper operation. keyboard_arrow_down

0.5 mm ± 0.15 mm is the required air gap distance between the pressure plate and belt pulley, measured at minimum three points to obtain an accurate mean value for proper magnetic coupling function.
