I got the TSB last night. There is no change to recent 96 lb-ft specs.
All new 997/987/991/981 effective 2012 changed to 118 lb-ft / 160 n-M
There is no ratonale given whatsoever.
Many dealer service managers are clueless about any and all of this. Apalling.

So, if you had a 2011 987 your torque setting is 96 lb-ft and if you have a 2012 987 it is 118 lb-ft..; hmm.....
I think your earlier comment on the center locking hub issue might be correct.
