  1. There is an upgrade to the clutch release lever, which more than likely was not replaced on your vehicle (based on the low miles)… Do you know if your clutch was ever replaced? In any event look at your current release lever (removed from the bellhousing pivot point). The opposite end (from the throw out bearing), if you have a nylon sleeve about an inch long that the release lever sits on (and then sits on the pivot point) you have the old version. The new version does not use the sleeve but sits directly on the round pivot point in the bell housing. The upgraded release lever is the 997 version. If you change it make sure that you order (get) the “O” ring that goes with it. When I ordered mine from Sunset Imports they forgot to mention the required “O” ring. The ring sits between the pivot point and the release lever. I would put in the upgraded version since you are in there.
  2. (PS) I would not replace the flywheel unless it is proven to not function, is extremely scorched, is grooved, or the clutch chattered (or for piece of mind) or you have some extra cash.
  3. Review the attached. Although it is for the Turbo and GT2 the check proceedures are the same for the 996 (DMF)... http://www.sportsandclassic.com/images/dmf.pdf
  4. Just replaced the clutch on my friends 04 996 and my 99 996. You do not have to replace the pressure plate bolts. You will have no problem unscrewing the pressure plate bolts because they are not that tight nor are they required to be that tight. I do not remember the torque for these but it is low. You definitely need a clutch centering tool that fits. We made one out of wood on a lathe the fit perfect. If the disk, pressure plate and pilot bearing are not aligned perfectly you will not get the transmission back in. The first time it took use an hour to get the transmission back in (but this was because we took it off the transmission jack and didn’t put it back in the same position) the second time it slid right in. Good luck
  5. SBDinATL, Did you get your car back? Please post some pictures when you get time... Peter
  6. Thanks for your reply. Can you do me a favor and measure the distance between the ground and your fender lip (front and back) using the wheel as a center point. I am interested in the X74 package and would like to know how much it lowered your 996. Thanks, Peter
  7. george996, Wow, your car does sit high. Glad I have a 99 (heeheehe)...
  8. SBDinATL, Where did you order your X74 suspension package from? Cost? How do you like it-handling, ride, stiffness? Thanks, I was thinking of the same thing but not yet sure. Peter
  9. Does anyone know if the stock mufflers from a 2003 996 C4S will fit on a 2004 996 C2 (NB)? I have an opportunity to get some Hergesheimer modified muffles and would like to install them on a C2..
