clutch

[Chasman10]

Hi

Just told by dealer I need to replace the clutch and pressure plate on my 99 - 996. He quoted $ 1900 Is that in the ball park. Hopefully I will not need a new flywheel..

Also I asked him to check the ims bearing. Can this be visually checked?

$1900. sounds about right for what a dealer will charge. I would take the car to a shop that has installed the LN IMS bearing before & have them install a new LN IMS bearing & check the clutch if you are able to afford the $ 600 for the IMS. If not you can check for oil leakage from IMS & RMS & remove IMS mounting flange & check for freeplay in IMS shaft any freeplay indicates a deteriorating bearing.

Thanks so much for the advice. I will definitely have it checked and inspected.
I wish the dealer could replace with an upgraded ims bearing.
