Anyone have experience with the Reinz oil cooler seals? Are they as good as OEM? The Porsche part is staggeringly more expensive; i.e. $.50 vs. $10.50
Given the oil cooler seals seem to start leaking pretty quickly, extra money might be worth it if OEM is better. |

For a four or six?
VR seals are fine. I use a dow corning O-ring lube, but I used to install them dry. Are you in a rush and is it for a T4? If not rush (post takes 2 weeks or so) and a T4 PM me your address and I'll send you a couple. |

Hey Mark, can we set up a phone conversation with my Belgian mechanic and you, we are going to install the SDS fuel injection system. You may have some things we need and we can make a deal for the Ljet you installed a while back. Plus you may have other things I may need, I think I need a later top as my windows do not seal well, etc. Ian |
