For reference, recently completed engine-out maintenance only 1900 miles and 2 years ago from prior owner includes: "IMS Bearing replacement, Rear Main Seal Replacement, Oil Pan & Gasket, Spark Plugs, Water Pump, Front Crank Seal, Air Oil Separator, Oil Pumps, Cam Plugs, Drive Belts, Re-Time Motor." I had the brake fluid bled and changed the oil 300 miles ago, at which time the indy noticed the leak.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

All, The fun continues. Recently purchased a 2002 996 C2 Cab with 69k miles. After replacing much of the stereo and other misc maintenance.... and knowing I'm about to have to put $5K into replacing the whole suspension which is shot....... I apparently also have 2 leaks. The photos below are under the rear of the car, looking up towards the front. I have an oil leak on the right side under the engine, and it looks like a leak around my clutch mechanism. Clutch is original. It does not slip, but is high effort, which seems like it could be any number of reasons from what I've read. The leak may be most concerning, especially while I'm bleeding to death with other maintenance items. Any theories to highlight before I bring this to my indy would be appreciated. For reference, recently completed engine-out maintenance only 1900 miles and 2 years ago from prior owner includes: "IMS Bearing replacement, Rear Main Seal Replacement, Oil Pan & Gasket, Spark Plugs, Water Pump, Front Crank Seal, Air Oil Separator, Oil Pumps, Cam Plugs, Drive Belts, Re-Time Motor." I had the brake fluid bled and changed the oil 300 miles ago, at which time the indy noticed the leak. He wiped it off and said it could be old, let's watch it. I believe it's still there since it seemed fresh and I can smell burning oil (maybe it's dripping onto the exhaust)? I also have records in late 2021 of a cooling hose which came off and needed to be replaced 996.106.837.03 Any clues/info helpful! Oil leak, right rear Fluid on clutch mechanism? Clutch is high-effort but not slipping
