FYI, anyone in Orlando area that needs service, check out Sean at Nort Northam Collection.

Amazing guy, fast/thorough/FAIR!

Super guy

My first experience with them, and while I hope I don't have to see him very often, it will be my "goto" location.

Cannot say enough good things about his work.

You may want to tell others where you're looking? Hehe

And just me personally, if I were doing it again, I wouldn't have changed the IMS. I did mine at 147k miles, 'cuz i was doing a clutch. But that bearing was perfect.... and proven.

As title says, I’m looking for a fair minded, Porsche mechanic to do some repairs that are not DIY.(clutch, water pump, I M S ceramic bearing install)
Any help from you guys appreciated. Thanks

And as I suggested in my comment below: you might want to tell people where you're looking.
For instance: which hemisphere do you live in? Then country? Etc. Etc. Help us help you.

And for whatever it's worth: those repairs ARE D.I.Y. for many of us here.
