Description
Carrying on Adrian Streather’s tradition of exemplary
Porsche 911 technical guides, this book contains everything a 997 owner needs
to know, plus a lot more. From engines and transmissions to engine management
software – no matter what model of 997, it’s all covered here.
Synopsis
This book on the Porsche 911 (997) is the fifth of six
planned in The Essential Companion series, and the fourth with Veloce
Publishing. It carries on the tradition established with Adrian Streather’s
first Porsche 911 book on the 964 series, and contains everything a 997 owner
needs to know, plus a lot more.
The 997 series was the first to be fitted with
Japanese-manufactured transmissions; this then-new technology, and the
transmission details, is explained in depth. All other new technology
advancements installed into the first generation 997 are also described, along
with details of all the advantages and improvements the 997 has over previous
911 series.
Every 2004 to 2012 model year version is described, along
with the 3.6- and 3.8-litre engines, and the associated engine management
software combinations for the many different national variants.
In other words, no matter where on the planet a 997 owner
resides, their version of the car is covered in this book.
