Hi,
Nope - all 987's are susceptible. There is some talk that it's less frequent, but I don't believe it. The Seal is on it's 3rd or 4th Gen, and this has staved it off until later mileages are racked up it seems, but I think it's too early to say that the 987 won't experience this problem at the same rate as the 986.
They're all variants of the same basic engine design -
M96/20 (2.5L),
M96/21,
24 (3.2L),
M96/22,
23 (2.7L),
M96/25 (2.7L 987),
M96/26 (3.2L 987)...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
