General
Boxster
Note
The plug~n coupling is opened by unscrewing,
Pipelines that were fitted once before are joined by screwing together (as opposed to new lines
and steering lines, which are plugged together). This is necessary because holder C is located very
deep in the threaded part of the plug-in coupling and cannot be removed with conventional workshop
equipment.
No.
Procedure Instructions
1
Open plug~n coupling.
Turn at threaded part A to open the plug-in coupling. When
doing so, counter at plug-in coupling B.
2
Separate lines.
Remove lines from the retainers on the body and separate.
3
Screw together plug~n coupling. *
Turn at threaded part A when joining the plug~n coupling.
When doing so, counter at plug-in coupling B.
4
Use special tool 9263 to check
whether the plug-in coupling
was engaged properly.
Insert special tool 9263 into the groove (arrow) and apply
slight pressure on the special tool to check whether
the connection is securely locked (holder is seated
properly).
The plug must not slide out.
If the special tool cannot be inserted into the groove of the
plug, shift the plug in the plug~n coupling (pull on plug with-
out using excessive force).
Note
The plug~n connection is designed so that the plug can be
shifted in the plug~n coupling by approx. 1 mm in axial di-
rection by slightly pulling or pressing.
* On new pipelines, the plug~n coupling -including holder C -has already been screwed together. All
that remains is to insert (engage) the plug of the mating pipeline in a straight line.
