THis topic has been discussed at length as it relates to the "RMS" issue, i.e. rear main seal. This is a problem that plagues 996, 997 and boxster engines. It went on my 2001 boxster and required a new engine. I opted to trade it in for my 997. This is a real issue, and after many bandaid attempts to fix it, it was determined that the engine block in this area had warped and no amount of seal replacements would ever work. THis is my #1 griped with porsche and I will never own a Porsche outside of the warrenty period as they did not help me one bit on a clear manufacturing problem, regardless if it occured outside of the warranty period (in my case, 7k miles).
