Service Technical Information 4/23 ENU WPA1 4 WPA1 – Reworking Brake Line Threading (Workshop Campaign) Model Line: 911 (992) 718 Boxster (982) 718 Cayman (982) Model Year: As of 2022 Concerns: Brake line screw connection between brake calliper and brake hose Cause: On the affected vehicles, the brake line screw connection on the front and rear axles may not have been fully tightened to the prescribed final tightening torque. In this case, leakage in the brake system over the service life cannot be ruled out. The vehicles showed no leakage during factory testing. The brake system remains fully functional and the legally required minimum deceleration is maintained even in the event of a failure. Action: Tighten the brake line screw connections on the front and rear axle to the specified final tightening torque. Information The brake lines only have to be replaced in 1% of cases. Affected Vehicles: Only vehicles assigned to the campaign (see also PCSS Vehicle Information). Required parts and materials Parts Info: Information The required parts and materials are only required for replacing the brake lines and are listed in the individual campaign scopes (Scope 3 to Scope 11). Technical Information 'Warranty processing' Required tools Tool: • • Torque spanner, 6 – 50 Nm (4.5 – 37 ftlb.), e.g. VAG 1331A torque spanner, 6-50 Nm (4.5-37 ftlb.)
