Stumbled on this useful DIY project - link in another forum....

http://www.c-speedracing.com/howto_porsche.php

There are quite a few good photos/instructions of an RMS being replaced from start to finish...

Good overview for a person who always asks - "What is a RMS?" :D

BTW, I noted that he did not utilise the correct Porsche Tool to measure the crank clearance as well as not utilising the correct procedure for inserting the new seal...oh well.

Kind of wasting his time. It will probably come back with more damage than what he had before. I'll take mine to the dealer, thank you. :unsure:

I ran into this article too. I don't think I would do it myself if I had the RMS issue (knock on wood). Article seemed very detailed and informative but since the opinion is that he is not even using the right procedure, I don't think the article has any value.
