My CGT is booked in to have the clutch replaced tomorrow. The garage is a Porsche specialist but I don't think they've worked on a 924 for a while. Is there anything specific that other owners have learned from experience that I should mention to the mechanic that might not appear in the workshop manual for the job? They know they have to drop the transaxle back etc.

The car has 72k and the previous owner and I think this is the first clutch change it's had! Parts £420 from Porsche and fitting is about £550.

Late notice, but I've only just discovered the forums on the website.
 
Only to make sure that they use a nut splitter or plenty of heat on the wastegate and turbine housing flange bolts. You do not want a bill for replacing sheared off studs. I used a nut splittter on my best 924t after the experience of shearing off two on my ebay special. Start soaking the bolts in plus gas, (no do not read wd 40 for plus gas) immediately, just incase there are one or two bolts on the turbine housing that wont take heat or offer clearance to a nut splitter.
