Install function first street style bushing supports (I don�t believe this is recommended for broken mounts) and reviews are thin for the orange versions.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I haven�t looked at it directly but am confident that my bushings are broken and need replacement based on shifter feel and clunking. I believe I have the carrier side mounted bushings as my car is a 996.2 (6 speed). The options I see are as follows: 1. Replace the entire carrier assembly: https://www.pelicanparts.com/More_Info/99737503303.htm?pn=997-375-033-03-M100&gclid=CjwKCAiAm7OMBhAQEiwArvGi3OzMX9x4w1wqgyNJgo3edZCqLmbXTThqotx8s vx518ecfLc1OMND9BoCUo0QAvD_BwE 2. Replace the bushings in the carrier with something like these from Cantrell (street version). https://cantrellmotorsport.com/product/cantrell-motorsports-996-997-trans-mounts/ 3. Install function first street style bushing supports (I don�t believe this is recommended for broken mounts) and reviews are thin for the orange versions. Am I correct that I have the carrier mounted style bushings? What�s the consensus between these options? Any options I�m missing?

Well then there's this. It can be messy if you're not careful, but it works. Window-Weld Super Fast Urethane, Black, 10.5 fl oz Cartridge 08609: Advance Auto Parts

Is that a viable solution on broken mounts or just a temporary bandaid?

POST 4Original post

I did it ~6 years ago and it's held up fine. The durometer is about the same as the original. There's various internet articles, videos on using it for engine and transmission mounts; check it out. If you decide to try it, wear disposable gloves. It can be messy, but can be trimmed after it sets.

Thanks. I�ve messed with the same type of stuff for other purposes and agree that it�s messy. if anyone has reviews on the other 2 options, I appreciate it. I believe the 997 carrier is considered an upgrade. Reviews are thin on the green bushings but what I�ve read seems positive

POST 6Original post

Just replace the bushing. It takes about an hour and u can rent the tool here from members.

I don't think that's the transmission mount that you have. I have a 2004 C4S, but that and I thought the rear wheel only drive cars have a single under transmission bushing that has to be pressed out of the main transmission housing. https://www.autoatlanta.com/porsche-..._911_parts.php I know your link says that it fits your car, but when I search for your car, I also get the single under transmission mount: https://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog...ion-mounts.htm I suppose that someone who has done this with a car like yours will have to weigh in.

POST 8Original post

I have the orange function first bushing installed in my 996.1 c4 It was a great mod for my worn bushing. jeff C

My 2003 C2 6 speed definitely does NOT have a mount like shown. Mine is a single mount, that has to be pressed out to replace. I “beleive” the linked mount is for a Metzger based setup (Turbo, GT3, GT2) Just noticed, the Pelican link is for an automatic...hence the difference

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks, guys. I�m learning towards just replacing with the factory bushing. It�s cheap. Who here rents the tool?

POST 11Original post

I rented the AGA Porsche Transmission Mount Tool from dporto. That was about 2.5 years ago.
