I have a '02 996 C2 with just 47000 miles, I found that after my first DE track driving my car began to make clutch noises, the problem was the throw out bearing, the mechanic installed a new OEM clutch kit that included this part, just one week later that I went to my 2nd.

Yes he has guarantee on his labor, but he mentioned that he trusted his work, and that probably the throw out bearing from Porsche was bad, and since I ordered the part myself from a Dealer, that he does not warrant the part.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a '02 996 C2 with just 47000 miles, I found that after my first DE track driving my car began to make clutch noises, the problem was the throw out bearing, the mechanic installed a new OEM clutch kit that included this part, just one week later that I went to my 2nd. DE, again the same noise, now the mechanic mentions that is the same problem, but that he will charge me again the same amount of labor, because the problem is the part. Does this cars have a weak throw out bearing?, Did you have this similar issue?, How do you take care of it?

POST 2Original post

Your mechanic doesn't have any kind of labor & parts warranty? If not, I'd find another mechanic.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yes he has guarantee on his labor, but he mentioned that he trusted his work, and that probably the throw out bearing from Porsche was bad, and since I ordered the part myself from a Dealer, that he does not warrant the part. That just to inspect the clutch he will charge me the same labor cost than before. Also he mentioned that because I used the car on the DE event, that�s why it happened. But is a Porsche a sport car that is intended for racing not a cavalier
