Ive heard the flywheel and pressure plate bolts should be replaced, and it helps to read what your mechanic is about to go through...check it out here:

Have you decided on which IMS fix you are going to use? Just curious since I am preparing to replace these on a couple of 986s and would like to hear the debate from you and others...
Thank you. I'm going with LN's for the simple reason that the shop that I trust has done over 200 of them (according to them) and know the process, have the tools, etc.

AOS will definitely get done, thanks for the advice.

I'll see what they say about the flywheel. $800 is a lot on top of what this is already costing, but of course I'd rather it get done while it's already torn apart.
