LN Engineering states that later MY05s may have the upgraded bearing, but nobody knows the exact date the change was made or if it was even consistently installed on every '05 after a given date. That's why I am curious as to what month your car was built, assuming its oriignal motor came with the upgraded bearing of the MY06+ cars. |
2006 C2S, 68K miles, recently inspected, no problems/leaks, M97 early 2006 build.

2008 997.1 C2S - No failure (traded in @ 36,000 miles)
2011 997.2 C4S - No failure thus far (8,000 miles and growing) |
2007 997.1 C2S - 30K mi. No failure.

According to the door jamb, my 2006 Carrera S was built in September 2005. No problems as noted in previous post. In fact, the car has been totally trouble free.
Just wanted to post date of manufacture of "2006" model. |

Going by your VIN, your car is a MY05, sequence number 2,410. Unless your car received a new motor after the fact, the sequence number seems a little low to have the newer bearing type. What month in '05 was your car built? You can find it on your driver's side door jam.

08 997 C2S 19K miles - no issues

2007 C2S 30K no issues. Oil Changes only.

I changed my clutch last week. I saw some oil at the bottom of the transmission right at the engine and a drop or two on the garage floor.. So I bought a RMS. RMS was fine but the IMS was seeping, maybe 4-5 oz total-- some old and some new oil. It made a mess in the bell housing and the back of the engine. LN engineering literature indicates I may be looking at a failure. It is a 2006 997s with 55000 miles, never abused by me but I am the third owner. The car was in New Mexico when I bought it, the owner said he put 12000 miles on the car. Stottard sold the car to the first owner so it was up north for awhile.
So no failure of the IMS yet but I am worried. I am looking at breaking down the engine before it fails and costs triple to fix. On the 2006 "M97" engine apparently you must break the engine down to replace the bearing because the bearing is larger than the hole for the IMS cap. |
2006 C2 997 30,000 miles no IMS or RMS issues. :biggulp:
