You might be able to use our 997 article as a reference for your S. Maybe some other Pelicans will chime in with the differences. Can also do a quick Google search and some other things will pop up for the 997 S. Water pumps here if needed: Porsche 997 (2005-2013) - Water Pumps.

1) drain coolant 2) remove belts 3) remove old water pump 4) install new water pump 5) replace belts 6) replace coolant 7) start car and bleed air from cooling system. Nice weekend project. |

When I did my water pump last spring, I also put in the low temp thermostat and new rubber hoses that were "touching" the things I was taking out. I'd also change out the coolant tank - I wish I had - mine developed age/stress cracks just a few short months after I did the water pump - I would have avoided some double work.
