Because this one does. 1997 993 Cab, popped out of gear & lost drive on the freeway, towed in earlier today. Fresh out of the car about 10 minutes ago, with pieces of roller bearing on the drain plug. Really curious what happened here, as these are generally regarded as very strong gearboxes. Guess we’ll find out Monday. Hell of a way to finish the week though.

Looks like they left the blinds up.

Shit.... That sucks... I suppose you can nurse it for a while by refilling the oil constantly. but who wants to do that?

Nope, it’s locked up. Something seriously let go inside, possibly the diff by the look of it. Some of the pieces look like spider gears. It threw most of the oil out pretty quickly by the look of it.

It’s the ‘porthole mod’ that helps with fuel consumption.
With this mod, you won’t be using very much fuel!
