Re: timing belt

yes it sounds like the pump is leaking, when you or a shop replaces the pump make sure they replace all the seals,tensioner and timing belt most porsches are interference engines which means major engine damage occurs when the belt driven water pump bearing fails completely

Re: timing belt

porsceman, you were right, the pump is leaking and i am now fairly sure of the procedure for replacement. there was signs of oil leakage when on the cover but am not sure of the source. there is the cam seal, crank, and balance shaft seals. should they all be replaced or is there ones more prone to leakage than others and if so how.. thanks sam
