Carrera 3.6 Clutch Issues
budhinson replied to leocanto's topic in 997-1 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 2S, Carrera 4S)
I would do the seals regardless of whether or not it needs a flywheel, especially if it looks like they have been leaking. You will also need to pick up 8 flywheel bolts because they are one time use only bolts. The part numbers are as follows: Crankshaft Seal-99710121200, IMS gasket-99610511201, Flywheel Bolts-99907309201. If you do the iMS seal, be sure and follow the Porsche procedure for putting the engine on TDC. Let me know if you need anything else. Best Wishes, Aaron -

Carrera 3.6 Clutch Issues
budhinson replied to leocanto's topic in 997-1 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 2S, Carrera 4S)
Hello, If your RPM's increase and road speed stays the same the clutch is slipping. From what I have seen it is not uncommon for those cars to need the clutch replaced at that mileage. In addition to the clutch, the dual mass flywheel needs to be inspected at the same time. You should be able to move the flywheel surface no more than an inch clockwise then counter clockwise. While you are in there replace the flywheel seal and intermediate bearing flange seal. You could have oil on the clutch disc causing the slippage. Take Care, Aaron -
997S steering wheel removal
budhinson replied to Vlar's topic in 997-1 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 2S, Carrera 4S)
I believe you use a 10mm or 12mm twelve point star bit. The bolt is put in with blue loctite so it takes some effort to loosen it. Once you have taken the bolt out the wheel comes right off. :drive: Aaron -
I second that! :cheers: Aaron
