Engine Replaced, RMS Question
Is the new RMS supposed to be pretty robust and more immune from failing? I just found out today my engine was rebuilt/replaced two years ago at 33k miles. There's 20k on the new engine, and I've had no hint of RMS issues, but I'm curious when they switched to the newer (Cayenne?) seals how much they were supposed to help.
BTW, I do not know why the engine was replaced, looking thru warranty issues the original RMS was replaced on the original engine with 10k on the car, and the only other hint is the electrical fan died shortly before the engine did at 30k (so maybe overheating killed it?). -David |
The newer styled seals are supposed to work alot better then the originals,but who knows only time will tell.

Originally posted by spine911 I was in the service shop today going over and making sure there weren't any final warranty covered repairs to do before I let my CPO lapse on 12/26. I asked to get a printout of all the repairs that the dealership had, he was able to get service history from all porsche dealerships when it came to repairs done under warranty. Found out RMS was repaired at 10k, gas cap at 15k, halogen lamps at 20k (these are warranty?), fan at 30k, and engine replaced at 32k. -David |
I had a similar issue. I bought my '04 2.7 with 23K miles on it and assumed it was fine. The owner had died, and his wife was selling it. I later found out that the engine was replaced at 10K. (Might be wise to review the service records BEFORE buying the car?) It is under warranty until 9/07 so my theory is I'll put some miles on it hoping any RMS problem will surface before the warranty expires.
