My car is even worst than Roger's

To my knowledge, this way of doing was only for the around 20 first G28/55s.

That’s better!

Apropos the thrust bearing failure thread - from a 5-Speed:

That ain't supposed to happen. What was the crank endplay measurement?

Why not? If a 928 spends its first 120k-miles getting started with the clutch disengaged why would one expect less than quite a bit of thrust bearing wear?

Not measured. It's not something I routinely measure on a 5-speed. And by the time I take a picture of the bearing does it matter? From the moment the load leveler was attached this block was destined for greater things.
