My car had the engine replaced due to RMS but someone was asking me why they would replace the whole engine for just the RMS issue and why not just do the RMS update...

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My car had the engine replaced due to RMS but someone was asking me why they would replace the whole engine for just the RMS issue and why not just do the RMS update... To say the least I couldn't also figure it out except to say that from the documentation on the paperwork from porsche was the space between the engine and tranny were out of spec which caused the leak but I may have missed on my explanation. Can you experts please chime in.... thanks.

POST 2Original post

the engines had an issue where the crank was off center... If they pulled the seals and took the dial calipier to it and it was out of the center tollerance.. You got a new engine. Thats why!

POST 5Original post

That is the answer although for a long time Porsche's answer if anything went wrong with the engine was to put in a new engine. They still use this line of logic on many issues that can be corrected. But the out of line crank/carrier is not one that can be solved without a total dis assembly.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
