Firstly, sorry I thought my vehicle was in my profile. Now fixed.
Yes it is a 986.
I will be having a full clutch,pressure plate & flywheel replacement in addition to the RMS & IMS.
The company I was talking to are an independent Porsche specialist and they are saying about 15-20hrs labour for the complete job.
I rang them today and priced the clutch parts at $880 for the clutch & pressure plate. Dual mass flywheel $1100 and lastly the IMS bearing is about $800 over here.
So all up parts are about $2780 plus labour. I don't know if I want to attempt this myself for a saving of $1000.
Thanks for your reply.
