Morning All,
Just wondering if anyone has had problems with this particular coolant leak on any of your cars.
I have a 911 997.2 and have recently noticed a slight leak on the hard plastic coolant pipe that connects the water pump to the thermostat housing.
Apparently it is a common issue but on my holy grail of DIY (You Tube) I cannot find any clips of anyone repairing this.
Any help would be appreciated as I know it would be a bit of a pain to DIY, but I have had the back end of car and exhausts off recently to change drive belt and spark plugs so not really phased by having a go myself, just really wanted to know what was involved.
Porsche specialists have stated about 1k to do it for me.
I think same set up is on the flat 6 Cayman and Boxsters and possibly 991.1 models.
Cheers guys.
Barry.
