[928uk] Sourcing some parts

[jonathanrackowe at gmail.com]

Valvoline VR1 - Opie

Oil filter - Mann W730 available online at good prices every now and then. I have a genuine boxed Porsche one at ebay.co.uk/itm/235923852062

No need to pay silly prices for washers for Sump/Transaxle Drain/Fill Plugs: They are standard 22 x 27 Aluminium Sealing Washers. Available in packs of 5, 10, 20 etc on ebay and similar.

Bonnet Gas Strut Damper 150N or 160N, 435mm length 172mm stroke (assuming part is 928 511 139 03 same as 1991 S4/GT). For example Anschler YQY3031. Buy online - ebay, etc.

Rear wiper arms spacer - I use a discrete black plastic tie wrap!

Best regards,
Jonathan

1991 928 GT Amethyst Metallic

Hi all,

I'm giving my 1979 manual 928 some love, and an oil service. Where would
you source the following parts from:

- oil (have used Opie in the past, Valvoline VR1)
- oil filter, crush washer for sump plug + any other oil service parts
- gas struts for bonnet
- plastic / rubber spacer for rear wipers (goes in between the flat metal
arms)

Many thanks

Joel
