    hello, it is Tip, and yes an independent shop did my aos and tranny. i am sure i could have done the tranny but aos ?? isn't the engine have to be lowered for aos?? i had to take my car 2 places then a dealer to find out it was aos, it wasnt smoking just making squeaky noise. one place, while they had 2 959 's setting under the cover and 10 or so 996's there for service they thought it was the transmission. another place same type of cars being service but thought it is the engine. took it to the dealer paid the $300 or so to diagnose then to a independent shop. how hard was it to do replace the aos ?? i do every oil change and do change the oil filter every time. my 996 hit 150000 today

    Hello, Sunset Porsche talk Jeff, $975 ish for the parts and about $600 to $1000 to install. the ride is great, the picture here with out Mo30 is a 996 i saw on the street and i took a picture of. mine i guess had the Mo30 already, so when i changed it, it only refreshed the suspension on a 130,000 car, which was due. :renntech:

    I'd say it is time to find a non-dealer to work on that car. Unless they've pulled it apart, how do they know it can't be repaired with new synchros, or what not? Perhaps they figure 'screw him, tell him it needs a new tranny, mark it up 50%, see if he's desperate' Where are you? call sunset imports talk to jeff for a transmission 503-641-8600 jeff :renntech:

    hello every one now after have few places check out my car, one said engine is bad and one said transmission, now at the dealer and they say it is the oil separator for $3500 .. any one knows if that is a good price ?? A new AOS is under $200 - even at MSRP! I suggest you get another opinion. Hello everyone All fixed it was a Oil Sererator circle imports (long beach ca. dealer) wanted $3500 for it, thanks to loren i shopped around and got it done for less then a $1000. :renntech:

    Not sure how many miles are on your car, but it sounds as if it possibly could be one of the the idler pulley (s) or tensioner pulley. Have you replaced and when?? I think it is a part of the 60K maintenence schedule ( I'm sure the belt is, not sure of idler pulley(s)??). If it happens with the AC off, switch on and see if the noise is still present or does it disappear as the idle speed will change slightly. This would give also point to one of the the ider pulley or tensioner pulley beginning to show excessive wear. There are two idlers and one tensioner pulley as I recall. Cost is about $70 for upper idelr and ~$85 for the lower idler and tensioner pulley. Good luck!! Demosan hey demsan 135,000 miles and the sound is from the transmition..

    I started hearing a sound from the engine at idle only when engine is warm. It sounds like a dry bearing but it come from the back of the engine, mostly hear it between the back wheel and the door on the passenger side. Only at idle. Any ideas ??
