At the present water pumps are taking out more M96 engines than anything else. Time in service is killing the plastic impellers.

I am contacting Excellence Magazine to offer up an article on the topic today.

The Porsche supplied directives are worthless, they were written when the engines were new and no one expected the failures that time and experience have taught us.

Jake, if one were to be proactive and replace the water pump prior to issues, would you recommend OEM?
