I just purchased an 01 S, with 87k miles on it. Unfortunately, it had an oil leak which turned out to be a bad RMS. I had two estimates and did a lot of research before committing to get the work done. The first estimate was from an indie that worked on hybrids and Porsches that quoted 4600 which included the following: RMS, IMS, clutch, pressure plate and new DMF. The second was from an indie down the street from my work who has worked on air cooled Porsche for 30 yrs. He said 1700 for just the RMS, clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing. if additional work was needed, he said he would call to get the OK.
I went with the shop that had 30 years of Porsche experience. He took it apart and it only needed what he said, RMS, clutch pressure plate and throw out bearing. He also did the 4 cv boots for 300 more $ while the tranny was out. Been daily driving it since I got it back. Love this car.
