Next mod: British-flavored LS3 swap ... those are becoming more common. The best part? Porsche and GM LS engines both use Bosch electronics, so it's more "plug and play" than you'd think.

Unfortunately, the dealer will not tell a customer that his clutch needs replacing, the car is apart. After working at a Porsche dealer service shop, it was very common to just fix what you are told, and leave badly worn parts, that will go out in 6 months to a year... clutch, fly wheel, rear main seal IMS bearing, water pump, hoses, mufflers, there is a whole list of things that go wrong on a pretty regular basis. Actually, your Porsche repair place screwed you over.... "THEY" should have identified that "BAD" clutch, when the trans was off, it is easy enough to look and tell it was GONE... I would never go back to that place again. No telling what all else, they "SAW" as a coming problem, and just left it... as dropping the engine/trans is the only way to service one of those things, and it is VERY COSTLY to do... but, thats how they stay in business.

With the second gear issue, it could have been the clutch. I just changed the clutch in mine (ok, it's a Ford Focus, but still), because it didn't disengage properly when cold. Same issue. Notchy second, but it didn't grind first or reverse, nothing else was bad, just second and sometimes first. The throwout bearing wasn't doing it's thing, but as the gearbox warmed up, tolerances increased and it was all good.

Many years ago I had a Porsche 924S (944 engine). I bought it four years old with 40000 miles and a full main dealer history. It was the second most unreliable car I ever owned (a Triumph Dolomite Sprint being even worse). Every year something would go wrong and it was never cheap. I should have known because I bought the car with a thick pile of receipts the previous owner had for various repairs. Other people I knew with 911s had similar problems (both had engine rebuilds on sensible mileage FSH cars). I decided Porsche reliability is a myth. We could have all been unlucky but it did put me off them.

The noise was probably just the throw-out bearing but because you thought it was the second gear and you told them that, they knew they could get away with charging you for a rebuild on top of the clutch service. I hope they did actually rebuild it and didn't just clean it up to look like it was rebuilt. and second gear is perfect Always remember...MOST SHOPS will try to rip you off if they just think they can get away with it. Second gear is NOT going to make any noise when sitting still idling EVER.

Every old sports car will require a bunch of money to keep it running well, especially if used as a daily drive. So what I dont understand is, if you're going to invest, why invest in a 996? These are perhaps the ugliest and worst built of the lot, at a time when Porsche was on the brink of bankruptcy and admits to severe cost cutting (have you seen the interior of this series?). Also, there's the whole IMS, bore scoring, and engine failure issues. If you're going to risk your finances with an older Porsche, choose a worthwhile model, in my opinion. The 997's had similar issues but look infinitely better, and the bearings were beefed up in the later years, ultimately being replaced altogether in 2010 with the intro of DFI. C'mon Matt, I can't imagine you couldn't afford a 2009 or 2010 Carrera S or how about spice it up and go for an older 964 which is only going up in value at this point?

Your 911 is old enough to have the double IMS bearing, unless it’s had an engine change in which case check the date to find out which of the three bearings you have. However if you have the original engine you should check the timing chains on these as they are prone to snapping. Seems the 996/986 and 997/987 are all subject to potentially catastrophic failure. I know exactly what you mean about worry. I should be enjoying my Porsche but I spend all my time worrying and thinking “what was that?” When I’ve gone over a bump. I don’t drive it hard at all but I save the rapid acceleration until it’s properly warmed up.

What a shame, its alway's a risk buying such an old vehicle, even one as well engineered as a Porsche. Makes you wonder why the previous owner sold it. None of these repairs will be cheap, and down the line, more issues will inevitably materialise. I sincerely hope the dealer is a good one, and helps you out.

The problem with the British public is that they conceive Germany to equal reliability. When in reality the Japanese are in a different league. My ST205 Celica which would have been priced very similar at the time is now 22 years old but is still solid as rock and actually made more power than stock when dyno'ed.

DMFs seem to wear on all cars, one of my Ford Smax's has a good DMf and clutch at 204000 miles, but the other one has vibration at 48000 miles

Update on this, the 204000 mile SMax is now 212000 miles, still same DMF and clutch etc, the other SMax 70000 miles, still exactly the same vibration, both totally reliable daily drivers for my wife and son, I have a BMW and that’s also totally reliable having covered 20000 miles since April
