Guys,
This morning while doing a hard start off a red light my clutch went... Basically the pedal is now half as hard to press and the biting point is a inch higher.
I have some slippage in high gear too.
I just though I ask first:
-My brake fluid was flushed about a month ago, any chance some air in the clutch fluid line would produce the above ?
Since I am pretty sure the clutch is toast, what should I get replaced? The entire clutch assembly? just the pressure plate?
Given that I seem to eat quite some clutch with my driving style, should I go with an OEM kit or something else? I don't mind jerky / not smooth, if it means less wear & better performance.
Also I heard one should look at the IMS bearing while changing the clutch, anybody can explain a bit more?
Finally how much should I expect this to cost ?
thanks!
Sev

the clutch on my 2005 997 is a little hard to press and what is really strange is that each time I get it washed the clutch feels lighter for a while.
I am was thinking something might need a little lubrication, what do you think?
997S 20K cluthc is toast. What I replace with OEM?
in 997-1 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 2S, Carrera 4S)

My car is a MY 2005 . Is there a specific Porsche recommended maintenance for the IMS upgrade I can point my independent mechanic to ?
I have the car for a year and 5K miles. So I probably was not the only guy responsible here :D
thanks for the advice to stay with OEM parts.
