In this video, I replace the clutch in my 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 and finally identify which IMS bearing is in my engine. During the replacement we'll cover transmission removal, flywheel and clutch removal, slave cylinder replacement and bleeding, transmission mount replacement and more. Hopefully this video gives others information they might need to do their own work.

I really appreciate your slow, thorough, methodical approach with clear videography. It makes it so easy to follow.

@Nb61777 5 месяцев назад

I agree!

Great video and absolutely superb information how to change the clutch. I,m impressed! Can’t wait to see more coming up in the near future.

@peterdisley5327 3 года назад

You have done well with the equipment you have. Nice garage set up.

@serafineightyfive Год назад

rewatching your really detailed and helpful video since it's my turn for this job now, i have a minor correction: at 50:30, the torque specs for the first two screws are actually 45 Nm (33 ftlb), the rest ist 85 Nm (63 ftlb) :)

@PIFDIY Год назад

Thanks for chiming in with that correction Denis. Good luck with your upcoming project!

Amazing video. My 2006 C2S is showing signs of clutch problems so I will be facing this issue soon. I don’t have the lift and tools to do this (wish I did)...but I enjoyed seeing the process and I appreciate you providing the video. Thank you.

Excellent video. Very detailed. Great job! And thank you! I will be referencing this.

Thanks for taking the time to record this. I'm planning to do the same on my c4 this summer. Same issue you had with the hard pedal. I hope my experience is as positive as yours and I don't have to do the RMS or IMS.

Well done! Saved yourself a good $2000+ just had my ims done. Peace of mind and the swap always increases resale value.

Nice work and nice shop. I did the same, but with IMS & RMS. For the HF trans jack, add the wheels and a cushion for a comfy adjustable shop stool. I subscribed.

Good idea, thanks!

Nice job thanks for this video!

@ComputerGeekOnTwoWheels 3 года назад

You should replace the main engine seal since it is cheap and easy to replace. It is rubber and it could crack and leak. There really is no point justifying not replacing it other than you simply forgot to get it. It has already been proven that the IMS fails given certain circumstances, i.e. you keep you car as a Garage Queen, and/or you have a single row instead of a double row bearing IMS. The only thing I can add is that the newer IMS is bigger and can stand up better than the earlier models. Awesome video, thanks.

@scmclane 2 года назад

Did you not watch the whole video? He explains exactly why he didn't change it - and I completely agree. If this was getting done at a shop where you are paying $3000 each time the transmission comes out then YES do it. But as he said, if it starts to show signs that its leaking, he will just do it himself later. It will be a $20 expense and some more time. ...which he now knows how to work more efficiently.

Amazing video buddy. I wish I can have your abilities to work into my 993 (Dont need nothing bust just in case)

@serafineightyfive 3 года назад

Wow thank you for your time and effort to record and explain the whole process. I'm looking forward to more 996 related content ;) One question: what made you replace the slave cylinder?

@PIFDIY 3 года назад

Good question. Before I even decided to do the clutch replacement, I was going to try replacing the slave cylinder to remedy the stiff clutch; path of least resistance. This seemed to be a possible solution according to various forums. When I made the decision to pull the transmission and inspect the parts, it was obvious that the cause was a worn clutch plate. I added and deleted the slave cylinder to my order twice :). In the end, I decided to just spend the $120 to rule out any problems and start fresh.

@kabesang69 3 года назад

looking at the garage setup, I think the slave is a eq. to pocket change... I would of changed it myself. good job

@micdev42 3 года назад

Brilliant video: thorough and well explained. Quick question: how did you torque the allen bolts when reassembling the CV joints? Thanks and greetings from UK. And your garage setup is fabulous.

@PIFDIY 3 года назад

I couldn't get a torque wrench on those so I just tightened by hand and have checked them a couple times over the following weeks/months to make sure none of the bolts have come loose. All's good.

@ricksgarage8069 3 года назад

From what I've seen of your ability, replacing the front transmission seal would have been the easiest part of the entire job for you. I used to be a transmission man and I specialized in manual transmissions.

Is there an option to install a hydraulic thrust bearing and ditched the salve and fork ?

@1ricardobaptista 2 года назад

Hello, nice video, congratulations! May I ask you here do you rent that install and removal tool for the transmission mount? Thanks

@PIFDIY 2 года назад

Hi, I found someone renting the tool on one of the forums.

@richardtaylor2449 3 года назад

Thanks for the Covid virus vid' when you undo cv joints you just spin the wheel and you don't need to touch the boot

@abugaray4739 3 года назад

Very good! But, I am having trouble removing the top bolt. What tools and process did you use? Thanks!

@PIFDIY 3 года назад

Don't recall exactly but I remember reaching my left arm around and feeling with my hand. Your basically giving the transmission a bear hug. You can get an idea of clearance once you touch the bolt and feel around the area. That bolt is done totally blind so you just have to go by feel. There's enough room to get a 1/2" drive socket wrench on it, not sure if I used a short extension.

@CHIBA280CRV 2 года назад

Thanks Jogo, you can hear a little bit more about the jack stands in my other video here - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o31POmG12Uw.html. A link is in the video description although it looks like the price has gone up quite a bit...

@@nealwilkinson9311 Ok, looks like Greg Smith Equipment is now "Tooltopia" and no longer sells those jacks. Let me know if you find any. I've had people ask on my MaxJax video. Thanks!

@brewswillis7294 3 года назад

How many miles do the 996 clutches typically last before needing replacement?

@PIFDIY 3 года назад

Well, clutches are wearable items, like brakes, tires, etc. so a lot will have to do with how/where the car is driven and the habits of the drivers. Poking around the internet, I found that a lot of 1st clutches have been done between 50-70k. This might sound low but keep in mind that many of these cars have multiple owners and are driven much more sporty than a typical daily driver including track days and hpde's. Also, a lot of clutches are replaced "while they're in there" because the rear main seal is leaking or someone wants to address the IMS bearing. There are always stories of people with >100k miles on the original clutch as well. So, in my opinion, clutch life is probably no less than most other cars.
