Patt Posted January 17, 2022 Report Share Posted January 17, 2022 Phone your local factors and get a quote seem to recall it's Sachs clutch and a Luke flywheel I'm sure mine was about £600, although that was a few years ago now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I searched for the flywheel before putting the car in and couldn't find anywhere other than OPC, Design 911 etc. The garage it's in have said the same thing. It's on order now from Porsche Glasgow. Coming from Germany. Should be here in 3 days time. £1078 including VAT 🤢 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patt Posted January 17, 2022 Report Share Posted January 17, 2022 I picked up the phone and it was with me the next day. That said it was a 986 3.2 but I doubt they designed a different dual mass flywheel just for a 987.2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
½cwt Posted January 17, 2022 Report Share Posted January 17, 2022 Delving into the parts catalogues, the 987.1 has a 986 prefix part number flywheel, but the 987.2 has a 9G2 prefix so looking like up issued at the very least or possibly incompatible.

Deano37 Posted January 17, 2022 Report Share Posted January 17, 2022 I got the clutch and flywheel from Carpartsbargins via Ebay, Oct 2020 @£418 for both. States clutch as Sachs 3000 951 014 and LUK flywheel 415 0120 10. Only set i can see on Ebay now is sold via Techniclutch @ £846. Not sure if that helps?!

Menoporsche Posted January 18, 2022 Report Share Posted January 18, 2022 987 with hard top! Pretty rare - as is the colour. I suggest you change your My Ride to say the Model Year and if it's a 987.1 or .2, which will help us when discussing it in future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 18, 2022 Report Share Posted January 18, 2022 (edited) Having recently changed my original clutch and flywheel at 151000 miles, i can confirm that the best place to buy the flywheel is from main dealer... no cheap options on the 987.2 2.9 flywheel i'm afraid. I paid just over £1000 from Porsche including the bolts and this was with the PCGB 10% discount. Sachs sports clutch was fitted at the same time by my mechanic.... quite a few cheaper options for the 3.4S but sadly not the 2.9 model....!!!! Note i did not go for the lightened flywheel option...... dual mass purchased and hoping it's good for another 151k.

It's a hell of a price to pay 🤢🤮 I'm hoping to not be spending anything on it for a while. Although running it daily you never know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menoporsche Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 Drove it to the office (20 mins stress free on a Sunday) to pick up my BoXa.net calendar which was posted two weeks ago, and I assume had arrived by now. Nothing I’ll send a message to key staff who receive office post before I start chasing it through the customs labyrinth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkybaj Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 I was looking through the manual pack for my recently acquired 987 and found a well hidden invoice for a clutch and IMS replacement! Absolute result! I’m pretty sure the selling dealer wasn’t even aware. To celebrate I drove to meet a mate in Ashbourne with his 996. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megatonks Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 Attempted to do front and rear axle's discs and pads. Only for the fronts done though in a 5 hour period. Those pointless disc screws screwed me over big time. popped out to buy an impact driver which helped a ton, but ended up needing to drill one out still - lost so much time! Definitely needed doing though - Check out the state of these. Rears tomorrow - i've checked the screws already and they're nice and loose already.

iborguk Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Dropped the car off for MOT New OE windscreen (I've lived with a repaired stone crack in my eye-line since ownership of this car and yup it could happen again within 2 mins of a new screen). The screen also has 10 years of general pitting on it which is obvious when the sun is out (so about 2 hours a year at this rate). New roof (well the outer material or "cover" as Porsche call it) - this is being done under warranty as one of the screen elements has stopped working and that necessitates the whole roof cover being replaced in OPC land...

Del_tl1000r Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 New clutch and flywheel at a total cost of £1730 🤮. Feels a lot lighter than the original. Driving great though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
944GS Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) Left work early and took the long route to walk the dog at the beach since the sun was out. I’ve only had the car since late August so not had a summer in it yet but I never imagined I’d be driving with the roof down as often as I have done over the winter! The car is lowered at the front but not the rear and it’s a pain getting in the drive, would there be any benefit for someone to have done this or is it more likely they’ve just used the wrong parts? Im also looking to get both bumpers painted and the wheels done in a darker colour, would like black but I’ve not convinced myself on that one yet.

I’ve got my wheels in anthracite which looks amazing against the Basalt Black, also colour coding the side vents helps too tidy up overall look of car.
