When does there be a market in a high mileage pdk car being bought for 15k and broken for parts if a 2nd hand box is 11k. you could split a decent car and buy yourself two more. Yes although if I had to buy one my first at port of call would be an OPC on the exchange basis (assuming criteria is met , whatever that is) Edited July 3, 2021 by iborguk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bay of E is probably the wrong place to look but only saw one at 11k (used Cayman box) There are at least two for under £3k on my first search. I also spotted a 992 box that was replaced under warranty for £1650, wonder how the seller got their hands on that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frustrating that the OP’s potential issue is caused by what looks like 50 quids worth of electronics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seem to a be whole bunch of them, some of which only relate to 981's. Edited July 3, 2021 by iborguk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bandit_287 Posted July 5, 2021 Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 If I get another Porsche after this one I’m going back to a manual gearbox, these PDK boxes are just too much of a liability, it’s ridiculous having to replace an entire gearbox for such trivial problems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninesomething Posted July 11, 2021 Report Share Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) PDK - it's the new IMS.... Actually I've seen a few PDK issues pop up in various places over the past couple of weeks. Just when I'd convinced myself to like it. I broke my first and only tip box but then I've managed to break almost every automatic box I've owned so it could just be me.

Ian ferguson Posted July 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 THE CAR IS BACK-HAPPY DAYS. Just a quick update i collected the car on Monday and eventually went the route of 2nd hand gearbox. The indi garage did a great job in looking after me and were keen to get me back on the road ASAP. Combined with a oil & fluid box change and an out of sync brake fluid change the car has never felt so good! Looking forward to enjoying the rest of the summer and thanks for your inputs on this issue guys-much appreciated. Enjoy the rest of the summer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi daz, yes I’ve left the gearbox with the indi and propose to list it this weekend time permitting. im going to price it to sell but it should be of use to someone more mechanically minded than myself. for the record it was a failed displacement sensor and no other faults recorded. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz05 Posted July 23, 2021 Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 Hope Mr ATM ends up with it and uses it to fix his car, would be a nice ending to the story 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
