For people who are gonna DIY, where do we get this lube? can it be used with aftermarket lubes?

 

At OPC, part number is 999.917.778.00

400 ml. spray can

 

This is the lubricant Porsche uses on this service action

 

Awesome! Rep points to you for posting the lube.

 

Thanks, you got mine some time ago

 

Yeh, I had mine done a few weeks ago too before Mike posted the details.

I wonder how often the lubricant needs to be applied now? Yearly?

 

Good question, I did myself too but no idea

 

Great info. Anyone notice any difference after the TSB work? Thanks!

 

I am asking my OPC if this needs to be done again as it's nearly 2 years ago this recall.

 

WOW, this thread is an oldie. My daughter Ellie was in my wife's belly when I made this post.

minor recall, simple fix. REP POINTS TO YOU MIKE.

 

My pleasure!

However I have to give credit where it is due. We must thank my buddy, Kevin Hines. He is a Master Tech at Porsche of the Mainline.

He blessed me that info minutes after he found out about it. I then passed it to my family here.
