Mentioned this in an earlier thread, but I'm just interested to hear from anyone who has had their 7.2GT3 12,000mile service.

It states in the service manual on page 17 (UK service record book)

12,000mile Intermediate maintenance:

"Replace rear-axle anti-roll-bar mounts"

This was news to my OPC.

Anyone else has their first intermediate service and is there record of 'mount' part numbers on their invoice?

Cheers

Finally Porsche includes them as a maintenance item.

I broke one in my 996 GT3, and I know from various 996 and 997 GT3 that have broken these mounts (the ones attached to the rear subframe)

Correct to assume maintenance-requirement differences due to differing warranty/cpo rules for various countries?

LuckyP

Thanks John,

So same ARB mount replacement required at intermediate for American markets.

OK. Who knows if theirs was changed???!!!

Must be some higher milers out there?

LuckyP

Bump - Am I the only high miler on here??

Come on. Check yer invoices for me!! Please......

I broke one of mine after on the second track weekend.
I replaced it outside dealer. Dealer did not do anything to it after 8000 miles first annual service.

Just picked my pork after service and CL recall, after seeing this thread specifically asked them if they've replaced the mounts. Answer was "no, oops, we didn't know we should have".

LuckyP

Ah Rost - you hang out here too!

Really not on this. Just what I expected.

Anymore prepared to let on?

OK. Car in today for the UK Centre Lock recall (no issues on other checked components so just locks for me).

Asked about the:

"Replace rear-axle anti-roll-bar mount" on page 17 of the UK service book.

I was told that the parts (as clear as day on their Menu Priced Service Menu) were:

977.333.792.95 x 2

997.333.069.05 (minor) x 1

(997.333.069.06 (major) x 1)

997.333.070.06 x 1

I was told that these aren't the bush retainers that I thought they might be, but 2 drop links and 2 bushes!! Well, well, well.

Anyone got a fancy way of showing what the part number look like on a parts catalogue???

The Centre also ordered 4 x retainer cup bolts as these have thread lock on them and I guess they will be wanting to do things right from now on.

Ever the pesimist, I called Porsche Reading (nearest Centre to Porsche GB) and they read out the same numbers.

So. Droplinks now minor and major service consumables?

Discuss.

Those who have said your 'mounts' broken - are you talking bush retainers, droplinks or some other component?

Finally - what do you think the 'minor' and 'major, after the part number relate to? Surely not different components for minor and major service???!! Huh?

Love to know your thoughts.

Pete

The major thing is that the part numbers are correct, the minor thing is that they charged you for a drop link for a 997.1 GT3.
