"Blown" engine is a very broad term....it could be the early 996/986 replacement cylinder liner failure,


I just recently heard of this "cylinder liner failure". Can someone provide me more information about what this failure is, what are the consequences, what model/years are affected and whether Porsche will fix out of warranty?

Thanks!!!


Grant,
Here's some info on the problem http://www.autofarm.co.uk/engines/water_cooled/silsleeve_tech My understanding is that it occured only in the first couple of years.....
