991.2 GTS idle whistling noise
#16
Hello again.
Just to give you the update. Water pump was changed by the dealer, problem solved. No more noise.
Dealer told me the new water pump they ordered is a different part number than the one my car had. My car is MY2017... maybe they solved this for the MY2018 cars?
Just another question... they put some perfume inside my car and I hate the smell. I like leather smell !!! Do you have any trick to remove this?
Best regards.

Well there are two in this thread, so now we're up to three at least. I seem to remember more.

Not trying to flame or create panic, but three failed water pumps on cars this new is significant in my eyes, and points to an issue.
This one was a t-stat housing:

This guy never got a follow up:

This seems to be two guys but it was a tank issue....

So multiple coolant issues on the 991.2 but only three pumps so far....

Add this new guy to the list of water pump issues. Was going to pick up my new-to-me 2017 991.2 this morning, dealer called saying that during their CPO inspection they found “a very slight leak” in the water pump. Wants to replace it before I pick it up.
Not exactly the first post to RL I was planning to do...
