[928uk] Your 928 SE

[Paul Lacey]

TPS and CPS replaced although it was running fine. The FPS and dampers are Bosch and are in extremely good condition, still passivated zinc gold colour. Fuel pressure runs at completely stable 3.3 bar at idle. Generally I don’t fix parts that aren’t broken unless they are really hard to get at.
I did replace the hall sensor, not because it didn’t work but because the plug was falling apart.
Front fuel hose is new, rear loop hose is not but it’s still flexible and has no cracks otherwise I’d have changed it. Your hoses are excellent by the way but on this car I don’t want to add non original design parts, even if better.

Best Regards,
Paul Lacey
