Just curious.....doesn't replacing the oil pump involve dropping the motor, opening the cases, and really getting into it, like tearing the whole thing apart? I'm not a motor guy but that's what it seemed like when I was/am getting mine rebuilt. The fragments in the filter are not good. I think you are looking at a total rebuild with whatever parts they can salvage or a replacement motor. My only advice is to make sure whomever is doing the work has done it many times before. The assurance, "I can do it", doesn't mean diddly. Most independents rely on changing oil and brakes to make a living and even if a one or two man shop has the cognitive skills to do the job, they can't irritate everyone else while they work on yours for a couple of weeks, ie it will take a long, long time.....best

 

For around 2 month old 4k km , I don't know cause the mechanic describe it to me , it feel soft but it is very sharp , no am not driving the car ,

And when I bought the car I did a major service + spark plug + brake pad + brake oil + cup holder + P zero rosso

 

I think so, probably The same material ,

 

I hope so , I searched the Internet a lot and I think it's engine bearings

It's look like rebuild time , I went to the dealer and I checked the service history
And it was very good no serious problem or oil pressure issue , on interval every 5k there was service but the strange is last service was on 65k km (major service ) and I bought the car 84k km around 20k km without record.

 

No I don't think so they only remove some part from the exshust system to change the pump ,
Thanks for the advice
The guy that will take care of my car is Porsche specialist He used to be the maintenance supervise in Porsche dealer, it will be in a good hand

 

did you just buy this car a few months ago? Is it CPO?

 

No CPO

 

As others have said I am afraid you are right. Get price for rebuild vs remanufactured from factory. If you have any doubts about the workmanship of your technician (maybe you should???) I would go with the remanu. You can search LN Engineering and Jake Raby and get an idea of what experienced professional charges for these options. Best guess is that it is indeed from main bearings, maybe motor was run w/o oil before you got it. Sad that you put money into the motor before they found the mess. Ask the dealer to help you here since it sounds like they sold you this expensive problem. Btw, where are you. KSA?

 

I searched a lot and I found the source it is the crankshaft bearings ( main bearings) And maybe from connecting rod bearings
And here is some pic I found it on the net

Yes. You would think that this is due to a lubrication failure and occurred over time. The question I guess is when it started and why. If you serviced it properly I would go back to where I bought it and talk nicely to them This kind of failure and the recent work done on the motor makes things very complicated as to determining causation or placing blame if it matters at all.

 

I have a 997 2006S Convertible with 64K - same readings. Glad to see I am not the only one, but my car does burn about a quart of oil every 3K - checking into that.
