I have read with interest members' reports of failures of the RMS. I have a 2001 Boxster S with 33000 miles on the clock. My car was seviced 2 weeks ago and a failure of the RMS was diagnosed. On stripping down to replace the seal a "worn" dual mass flywheel was diagnosed. The failure of the flywheel meant it was out of balance and the problem would only get worse with time. The flywheel was replaced at a cost of £580 + VAT for the part. I complained to the OPC as I considered this to be a manufacturing fault and they agreed to contact Porsche. No surprise Porsche disagree. The failure of a flywheel after 33000 miles is not the engineering "excellence" I expect of Porsche. Any other owners with a similar story?
