I have not had any mechanical issue with the car and since I purchased it I have done a slew of things to it including oil change, coolant flush and brakes.
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.

Hello All,
I had something rather alarming happen today. I was making a sprint up to about 70mph, and when I came off the gas and shifted into high hear I immediately noticed a change in the clutch feel in the car.
It feels... Softer. Almost as if it is a more pedestrian car. I have not noticed any slip, but the pedal feels a lot softer. I actually was able to shift the car a bit smoother in traffic.
I've been searching high and low for a similar post but I haven't seen one. Some people immediately notice a change in clutch engagement, or simply that the clutch is slipping.
I didn't notice either of these. The car seems to go in and out of gear easier than before, and there is less feel in the clutch pedal.
The easier gear changes might be because the car was nice and warmed up at that point. I will know in the morning I guess.
The clutch kit has less than 10k miles on it. I didn't smell clutch afterward when the car was warm, or afterward when I took the car out for groceries.
Has anyone had a similar experience?

Only issue with the car is the front bumper has a couple rock chips. I will get it repainted if the new owner would like.
This has hands down been the most fun car I have ever owned. I have not had any mechanical issue with the car and since I purchased it I have done a slew of things to it including oil change, coolant flush and brakes. Plugs were changed around 200 miles ago to fresh stock plugs and gapped down. All service done at either BBI Autosport or Cobb Tuning So Cal.
This car has never been raced while I owned it, never seen a track. I rarely drove it and it sat in doors with a car cover over it.
Now, as the car sits it makes 580WHP and about 580ft/lbs of torque to the wheels. It is tuned way down as not to be aggressive on the rods. The car has tunes for E85 and 91 Octane. This car runs as good as stock if not better. I have a lot of time in the tune on this car so I can say it would be hard to find a better running car. This is also the perfect setup for someone who wants to do a 997 Turbo with bigger turbos, as this car has literally everything that would be needed to do bigger turbos minus the turbos and the lines.
These are the modifications done to the car as of right now:
Engine:
GMG Exhaust with High Flow Cats
Cobb Tuning 1000cc Injectors
Cobb Tuning Accessport with various different calibrations
OS Giken Twin Disc Clutch
Suspension:
Eibach Lowering Springs
Stock wheels and tires are brand new!
Exterior:
LED Tail lights
LED DRL's
Fixed spoiler Kit ( Not Installed)
Interior:
Has the bluetooth module/ Ipod hook up.
LED Lights for all interior lights
Passport Radar Detector Hardwired
Price is as follows:
$65,000 firm. No trades, no low ball offers. This is the price.
Please email me if you are interested in the car.
DO NOT PM!
There is a group of people that will get the PM's notification and this is a sale of my personal car not Cobb as a company.
[email removed]
Please let me know if you have any questions at all! Happy to answer any questions and can ship ( Buyer would pay but we have a good amount of transport companies that we use)
Thanks for looking!

I've experienced something similiar, not in my 996, but in my Z06. It only happens when I'm accelerating hard, going thru the gears. The clutch pedal will get "soft" feel like it engages earlier. I've checked some Corvette forums and others are saying something about the clutch fluid heating up or that a heavier duty clutch is needed. I occasionally replace my clutch fluid in my Corvette when it starts to get "dirty". After I'm done the clutch is much smoother. I haven't heard about changing clutch fluid in the Porsche but I'm inclined that it shouldn't hurt.
Probably the clutch helper spring. It's very common for them to go out. You may begin to hear some crunching sounds as it disintegrates in the shaft. Not too terribly expensive to replace. Kinda requires a double jointed arm if you try to do it yourself.

On the clutch pedal arm. #5 on the diagram. Mine is broken, yet functional. It squeaks intermittently. I'll get around to fixing it when I am in the mood to be upside down, and cramped like a polar bear in a bird cage.
yeah, isn't that great! someone drives it around ( gorgeous perfect specimen btw ) adds another 268 miles to the odo..takes some better pics and adds $4800+ to the price! certainly their prerogative. was a steal at 65 though.
gotta love used car dealers. sheesh.

LOL.......I bought my 07997tt from a Porsche dealer in SC for $77 and sold it a few months later for $82. Don't be a hater........its not a very attractive quality.
Quote:
i was merely pointing out a statement of fact, and while I'm familiar with the term, i'm not sure where you got the "hate" from? it was more of a bemused disdain, if you must know
car was sold a couple months ago, and now with more miles and now at an indie dealer and the price went up by nearly 5k?! and my mention of that is hating? lol. need to re-learn your hip hop speak...
and the last thing i'd want to have for you is "attractive qualities", but sure. i'll take it under advisement. ahh, no i won't actually

No worries..... Some years ago, a rich kid sold me his 1-yr old $60,000.00 Supra Turbo for $7,500.00. I kept it for 3 years as a DD and sold it for a lot more years later.

That was a quick sale, but I could have guessed that much. What am amazing car! If this was still for sale, I would be ALL over it. Great build and lucky new owner!
