Important notes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2005 Porsche 911, 2004 Porsche 911, 2003 Porsche 911, 2002 Porsche 911, and 2001 Porsche 911. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The principle of the plug-in couplings for the pressure and return lines is the same. It is the diameters of the plug-in coupling and of the pipelines that differ (return line = large diameter / pressure line = small diameter).

Important notes 

The principle of the plug-in couplings for the pressure and return lines is the same. It is the diameters of the plug-in coupling and of the pipelines that differ (return line = large diameter / pressure line = small diameter).

Plug-in couplings are components that permit simple, fast and precise connection of pipelines. These precision components must be handled carefully during repairs. Excess force during assembly work, damage to the sealing surface and soiling can cause leakage.

Perform preparations carefully when handling plug-in couplings - e.g. cleaning and fitting the plugs - as repairs are possible only by replacing the affected line in most cases. Only the threaded part A (with fitted O-rings) and the holder C are available as individual parts for the plug-in coupling (see Figure ).
