We have seen only a very few cars d-chunk.. from memory a 2.5 Boxster in 2002, a 3.4 996 in 2004, another 3.4 996 in 2007 and that is it.


It really is the minority..

I know of 3 other people in my area with Cayman S's that have gone pop in the last 12 months.

Maybe you're not seeing them because of what happens:
It stops working, you've never heard of D-Chunk, so you take it to the dealer, he strips it down and tells you it's 7k to repair or 1.5k to put it back together and give it back to you still broken, so you can take it somewhere else, but you aren't sure where else to go.
No choice really is it?






Finally many thanks to Hartech for the explanation, which I (amazingly) understood!

Baz, mine was dealer rebuilt at 66k (both crankcases, but only one piston as it was the only one that was marked, plus water pump etc etc). Is it inevitable that it'll pop again, but just a case of how many miles?
