Replacing the WP is a little bit PITA, but very doable DIY. Just plan on replacing the unicorn sperm they call Porsche coolant when you do it.

As newart mentioned, put in a low temp thermostat "while you are in there" also consider replacing the motor mount as well. Lots of threads on this

You can get a pierburg (OEM quality) at a reasonable cost. When I did mine a few years back, IIRC it was around $350 for the WP, low temp thermostat and the Porsche brand coolant. I got it all from ware house 33 auto dot com (remove spaces ) and put rennlist in the promo field for an extra 10% off
