2011 Porsche 911 turbo clutch fork explained

[@christurbo951]

Took me 2 attempts, but got it done. I was underneath on my back with my eyes closed aligning the shaft with one hand while aligning the fork on the other side. Don’t use Gorilla tape lol!!!. You video was super helpful!

One try.... but I took an insane amount of time. I also ripped the tape while trying to remove it. I had to squeeze my fingers into the slave cylinder opening and pull it out with my finger tips! I got lucky!

Great video, shaking was not noticeable. I'm doing this job but I'm dropping the engine and transmission together.

[@Petrol_fix]

Epic video. Even still! Thank you

Great video doing the clutch on my 997 this week. Thankfully I have a lift and hydraulic tranny jack.

Thanks for documenting this looks like a PITA. Perhaps I'll masking tape and then duct tape over it for strength? Just upgraded my 997.1TT to a stage 2 tune and EP-2 exhaust the stock clutch doesn't like the extra torque. So shopping for a replacement and effort involved. may just go back to stage one after watching this. Indy wants $4K for a stock clutch and coolant line pinning.

Very informative video! Is the 996 Turbo be an easier Clutch assembly to work on? what city/region is your shop located? thanks.

[@johndefini3732]

996 is about the same effort when all is compared. I'm in Northeastern NJ

@@johndefini3732 Ok Thanks! By the way, Any trusted or acquainted Souther California Porsche Mechanic to recommended please?

[@suzukirms]

Can't wait to get to that point myself. mine is a 04 turbo doing it all myself over a few months. How did you make that clutch aliment tool ?what sockets did you use?

[@jadkar]

Honestly, I don't remember but it's ok because it's probably better if you either size it yourself or buy the tool for your car. A 2011 911 turbo is not a metzger engine and maybe different size pressure plate.

[@suzukirms]

@@jadkar fair enough, thanks for your speedy input!

Fml ty for info

[@SoulPerformanceProducts]

That job looks terrible! How many tries did it take?

[@christurbo951]

The clutch started to slip in my 996 turbo today. Not looking forward to this.

You KZbin videographers you need to get a second person to hold your phone or the GoPro while you’re trying to do your demonstration it’s very hard to show how to do something when you’re trying to hold a camera and do the work you’re trying to do or if you can’t get a person put your camera on a tripod it would make it a match easier job for you to show mechanical work if you’re not trying to hold the camera and do it at the same time
