Guys, I did not mean to start a battle with my questions. The L/N bearing is not in question here it is my install job that has created the problem. Porsche is not new to me. I have completely rebuilt a 914 (1975), 911 -2.8-(1973) and a 944S motors successfully and have owned Porsches for over 25 years.
However, the M-96 motor is new to me i.e. my difficulty. I do though disagree with Jake's comment "It's a life style"....... I think it is more of a disease! I wish I could cure it but I can't!
Back to my motor. Car originally had 70,00 miles on it (tiptronic). No signs of IMS failure. OBD scan was clean before install. Leak down and compression was good. Have pulled plugs to
verify correct cam positions and have locked the crank ( pictures to follow tomorrow) before chasing potential wiring issues tomorrow. Jake...I am certainly NOT criticizing your bearing or installation tools THEY WORKED PERFICTLY.!!!
I made the mistake and am trying to figure out what I did wrong.
It might help us all in the future if we knew what to look for before we think about a new IMS, even if we do not intend to try and install it ourselves. Thanks again everyone!
