With the use of our Snap-On thermal camera we were able to diagnose this Porsche 911 C4S with a bad injector and coil pack.
911 Thermal Cam

Thermal Camera Diagnostics and More!

At Meister Werks in Renton, WA next to The Renton Landing, we use high end, state of the art tools to diagnose vehicles such as this Porsche 911, and other European cars, to get to the root cause of why your Porsche is not running correctly.

In this instance we were trying to find which cylinder was misfiring (not in photo). The computer diagnostic equipment said we had a misfire on cylinder #1 and #3, however we were unable to determine if is was one or the other, or both. So with our camera we found that the exhaust pipe from cylinder #1 was cold and not firing.

Not only can we diagnose your Porsche, we  also provide many other service while your Porsche is in the shop as well. We can do the repair, provide factory scheduled service, maintenance, performance modifications and detailing.

As part of our service such as oil changes, coolant flushes and brake service, we also provide you with a courtesy 30pt inspection to make sure everything is in tip top shape. During your visit we will let you know our findings and try to save you additional trips to the shop by catching everything the first time.

For performance, we provide chip tuning, coilover sport suspensions, performance tires and more. Just ask a Meister Werks Representative what we can do for your Porsche.

Lastly, you’re going to want your vehicle detailed, clean and ready to go. After we finish your repair, we can detail your car. A polish, buff and wax will make your Porsche’s paint to like new condition. We also provide a interior detail to complete the job.

Doing some wheels, tires and wheel spacers on a Mercedes Benz E350 late last week.

Mercedes Benz E350 Wheels Tires

About Our Services

Meister Werks has a vast selection of wheels spacers for VW, Audi, BMW and Mercedes. Located in Renton, Wa at The Renton Landing, we can set you up with the perfect stance for your European vehicle. These start at $40 for 5mm , and go up to 20mm for $70.

We also have extended lug bolts too. 12×1.5 & 14×1.5 in 39mm, 40mm, 48mm and 50mm in stock.

Need your fenders rolled at the same time? No problem. Our prices start at $175 for 2 fenders or $250 for all 4 fenders. Worried about your paint? Don’t. We heat up your paint to around 175º to ensure the paint is soft enough to flex with the fender roll. The process is simple. We hear up the paint on your fender prior to rolling. Once the paint is up to temperature, we roll the fender approximately 90% of the way. This way it does not warp the body panel, yet gives you the protection you need so you do now chew up your tires. After rolling the fenders, we can install your Simply Spacers brand spacers on your vehicle for the perfect stance.

Porsche Engine


Porsche 911 / 996 History

The Porsche 996 is the internal designation for the Porsche 911 model manufactured with first model year 1998 and last 2004. It was replaced by the Type 997 in model year 2005.

The 996 had little in common with its predecessor, with the first new chassis platform since the original 911 and a new water-cooled engine. Technically, it was a major change, a complete breakaway from the original car other than overall layout.

Development was shared with its smaller brother, the roadster-only Boxster which appeared around the same time, including the front suspension, much of the interior, and the engine, all of which were enlarged for the 996. However the multi-link rear suspension, derived from the preceding 993, was different.

At its debut, the 996 featured the most significant change from the classic 911 series: a water-cooled engine replacing the previously air-cooled engine (a change that Porsche’s parent, Volkswagen, would also make when it introduced the New Beetle a year later, in 1998). Progressively stringent emissions and noise regulations, environmental concerns, a higher expectation for refinement and a high-performance 4 valve per cylinder engine made the switch necessary. Other major changes include a completely new platform having a sleeker body with a more raked windshield, and re-designed interior.

Naturally Aspirated Carrera Evolution

The 996 Model year featured a 3.4L engine producing 296 bhp. The 2000 and 2001 model years received a slight increase in horsepower to 300 bhp while retaining the same figures for torque produced. In addition, Porsche made many changes to the 3.4-liter unit over its production lifespan, so the last of these 3.4L engines (made in 2001) have improved reliability.

The 2002+ cars received a 3.6L engine which provided an extra 15 bhp (11 kW) of power (taking output to 315 bhp or 320 PS) and an additional 15 lb·ft (20 N·m) of torque (increasing from 258 to 273 lb·ft). The inclusion of Variocam Plus (as opposed to Variocam on the earlier 996) improved power delivery through the rpm range. The headlights on the 996 Carrera also adopted the turbo headlights of the MK1 iteration. Seat belt pretensioners were added. In 2000, the Tiptronic transmission was modified to allow it to enter manual mode by clicking buttons on the steering wheel.

Updates also included a revised front bumper to decrease front end lift, and the addition of a glove box. The second generation 996 gained 25 kg (55 lb) in the facelift.

It must be BMW 7 series month. One of our customers brought his in his new 745Li purchase for some much needed service. Brake flush, coolant flush & check engine light diagnostic. After a thorough investigation, we found that the codes were there from the previous owner and there was nothing to be worried about.
745li Service

Engine Coolant Flush

The coolant system is responsible for combating the heat produced by your BMW engine to help keep everything under the hood from getting too hot. If this system isn’t working as it should, you run the risk of overheating, severely damaging your engine, evening causing it to fail and you to be stuck on the side of the road. Obviously, preventing your BMW from reaching this point is ideal, for both your vehicle and your wallet.

Meister Werks European & Import in Renton, WA includes a coolant check as a part of our standard 30 Point Inspection, and you may see a cooling system flush as a part of your BMW Preventative Scheduled Maintenance.

Cooling System Warning Signs

Make sure you have yourMeister Werks European & Import in Renton, WA inspect your engine’s cooling system if your BMW begins to show any of the following signs:

  • Your dashboard temperature gauge consistently runs between normal and hot
  • The coolant light pops up on your dashboard
  • Your interior heating system isn’t working right
  • Grinding sounds from under the hood
  • Coolant puddles under your car
  • Steam coming from your engine

What is a Coolant Flush?

If you need a coolant flush, our service staff will remove the coolant from the radiator and replace it with genuine BMW recommended engine coolant. It’s possible that if you catch the problem early, your BMW may not need a full coolant flush, but simply to have the coolant refilled. Because the possibility of severe burning and scalding exists while working with your engine’s cooling system, it’s important that you don’t remove your radiator cap unless your BMW engine is completely cooled. If in doubt, leave it to our experienced service technicians.

When you bring your new or pre-owned BMW into Meister Werks European & Import in Renton, WA, we will include a check of your cooling system and engine coolant as a part of our multi-point inspection at no cost. If you do need to have the coolant flushed in your BMW, our service staff will work with you to make sure you can take advantage of any coolant flush specials we may be offering.

  • Straight Pipe option for those who like it loud

Remember the first time you saw an R8? Your reaction was probably something along the lines of, “what is THAT?” Well, same for us.

From that moment forward, our work was cut out for us – we had to create a masterpiece for the masterpiece. Introducing two serious options for your R8:

The AWE Tuning SwitchPath™ Exhaust

The Audi R8 4.2L SwitchPath™ Exhaust sets a new standard. Beyond the hand crafted detail that is standard for every AWE Tuning Performance Exhaust, this one packs a little something special: The R8 4.2L Exhaust incorporates a proprietary mechanical valve system that controls sound volume:

  • Under part throttle and idle, valves route exhaust gasses through a central muffler, keeping sound tame and drone free.
  • At 3/4 throttle application and more, the valves open and the system is unleashed – going into “straight pipe” mode.
  • An in-cabin mounted electronic SwitchPath™ Remote toggles the mechanical valves between “normal” and “straight pipe mode.” Practical.

The SwitchPath™ Exhaust line has set a new bar. SwitchPath™ Exhaust highlights include:

  • Designed and manufactured in-house at AWE Tuning
  • Crafted from T304 stainless steel
  • Uses Factory Tips
  • No CEL with full system or straight pipes
  • German Engineered control valves
  • CNC machined V-Band connections
  • One piece, full bolt on system means easy and reversible installation
  • Programming optimized for R8 engine characteristics
  • Lifetime Warranty

AWE Tuning R8 4.2L Performance Straight Pipe Exhaust

Do you find our R8 4.2L V8 SwitchPath™ Exhaust too docile for your tastes?

Meet the AWE Tuning AWE Tuning R8 4.2L Performance Straight Pipe Exhaust.  This system unlocks the same impressive power gains of 25 hp and 28 ft-lbs as our SwitchPath™ Exhaust System, but sheds even more weight over the stock exhaust system, for a total weight loss of 50 lbs. Be warned, though: The sound from the straight pipes is not for the faint of heart, small children, or small pets, and there are no “switching options” available with this addition.

Scared? Take a step back to the head-turning yet sophisticated SwitchPath™ Exhaust.

AWE Tuning stands by this product with a lifetime warranty, however, the straight pipes cannot be returned or exchanged based upon sound satisfaction.

For racing use only

Please note that due to the elimination of catalytic converters, this exhaust is legal only for racing vehicles which may never be used upon a highway.

If you have an R8 4.2L and you’re looking to make one of the most meaningful evolutions available, this is your move.
