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
