For the 987 / 981, the caps are 9G1-321-360-00 and 9G1-321-361-00 - different for each shaft?
Can anyone confirm?

They are not listed in my 987 parts diagram, but appear to be listed in the 981 diagram?

Thanks (says the Cayman S PDK in bits at the moment).

Don't have a 987 but my 997.2 Katalog says they are the same part (9G1-321-360-00), see items 3 and 4 below. For some reason it says the quantity for item 3 is two and item 4 is one. If it's an AWD PDK (997/991) then there is no cap on #4 so that may cause some confusion.

If you search Sunset Porsche Parts it says there is no "361" part but it does come up with the "360" part. Where did you get the 361 number?

Thanks for the 997-focused comment as it appears likely the same PN for the 987 too.
As to where, I had thought a 981 PN list, but checking it looks like it is a 982 from here:



So, for 987/997 your listing appears correct!

this is from a 4s pdk

Thanks amet. The first one says NSK 30TM07U2 but I can't find a specific bearing by that number. It's a single row deep-groove type and looks like the OD is 80mm, same as the second bearing. Can you measure the ID and thickness? They look different from the second bearing in the photo.

The second one is NSK TM208U40AL and it's single row deep-groove type sized 40mm x 80mm x 18mm. I think this link is a Chinese copy but it has good info:

Edit: Link is for reference only, I would not recommend putting Chinese copy bearings in your transmission (or anything else for that matter)!

looking at the Russian site,NSK 30TM07U2 is 35Х80Х20 ... pelican has this? -> https://www.pelicanparts.com/More_In...-1-224-806-BOE

I'll check the thickness and ID next time I am there... remember, this is for 4S and this shaft goes through for the front wheel drive. 2S and cayman/boxster might have a different one, I'll check that as well.

edit: I wonder if the colour of the bearing cover is important to deal with the gear oil

But nothing for the Macan? There are a LOT of Macans out there...

Macan's so called "PDK" is not really a Porsche PDK. It uses Audi's famous(for failing) DL501 0B5 DSG that can be found in most Audi A4, A5 B8 and more.
Porsche took Audi's 0B5 additionally optimized & revised the control module to the best possible configuration thus, highly responsive and much more reliable. They dont fail as often as Audi's but they do fail at some point, I have fixed a few Macans.

First version of 0B5s are trash
Second version is much better
Porsche's version is the best

If you know 0B5 well enough, any faulty displacement or pressure sensor will just require to replace the whole control module

Chris M.

Thanks for the info. Where are you located and how much does the control module PDK fix run on a Macan S?

Conversion from MYR to USD is about between 1000 usd to 1800 usd depending on what is broken

Hi
What tool did you use for step Sixth and the nut?

I believed it was a KM7 but it’s not.

Niklas

Damien Law

Good question.
Frankly, we do not even have the standard tool to open this specialty nut/km(step6).
We just fabricate the tool according to its size/measurement. Will upload a pic soon

Damien Law, my mechanic got my 2011 Cayman S PDK out, built a custom tool like you suggested in seventh step but the gearbox cover will only come out by 1/8". All the screws have been removed, including the bolt perpendicular to the other ones, and the bolt from the top cap side. The snap ring from the bottom cap side was also unclipped. He is afraid to break the case if he screws the two screws more. Any idea what could be wrong?

PV997

Not Damien and hopefully he'll chime in but did you remove the specialty nut in step 6 that Damien and Niklas Vendal are discussing in the comments right above your comment? I think it's on the threaded section of the mainshaft (lower cap) and may be different between the 2WD and AWD. It would be nice to get some clarification on this. This is not the exact same part but it's something along these lines.

amet

maybe a picture so we can see what you are working with?

have 2 shafts started moving inside the bearings? Is there any dirt on the part of the shaft that was sticking out? That could prevent it from going through the bearing.
