A Porsche Dealership Tech recently told me when there picking up a part it could be the throw out bearing rusty. He ruled out the DMF.




Thanks!

I did not remember hearing any rattling or other odd noise coming fro:the engine bay (other than a little chain rattle if the engine has set for a long time. The clutch bearing spins free. The main shaft was dry. The bearing was dry, but not rusty. Once the new one arrives, I give you some feedback concerning play old verses new.
