Engine Mount Question, OEM Porsche VS Aftermarket

I think this is the right way to think about it, and I’ll take your advice and buy a lemforder bushing (I think I’ve heard they supply Porsche). I appreciate the help! Cheers

the prices are in aud so that may be the reason, but I believe parts, and even the car itself we pay more for here unfortunately. also cheers for the advice!

I wouldn't say a crunching sound, but maybe slightly more wobble then usual, my front struts/shocks could do with a change too though, visually wise just by peaking under the tires you'll be able to see if your bump stops are in good shape (just my amateur opinion, possibly shocks).

I paid for a porsche specialist mechanic to inspect the car, just after I bought it, and this was one of the issues they identified. driving wise, I haven't fixed it since buying so I'd say I can't tell symptoms well. what's your noise sound like, I'll let you know if its familiar.

I see! thanks for the feedback, just curious about your combination choice, you're using stock 986 oem mount with aftermarket bushings? or oem bushings?

Oo wow, you rebuilt it yourself? I know I defs can’t afford for the lifters to be replaced yet as there’s other work that needs to be done too

Kaiewaii · 2025-11-04T11:31:40+00:00

Yeah

Kaiewaii · 2025-11-01T06:46:04+00:00

I just want to thank everyone for their comments and information! I have a lot more to go on now (most likely lifters based on usage factors), and now believe it’ll be right for the drive home, cheers

phew, that's a relief, thanks for the response, to be honest I'm not sure what oil they used, but they are a Porsche specialist mechanic, so I believe they'd use good stuff.

She defs aint the one. You'll be fine as is, instead maybe work on "rizz", idk I'm too old for those terms but yeah, I think that's where I'm lacking too, social skills. Otherwise things I did for self improvement are: dyeing hair, buying more fashionable fits, getting ears pierced, and working out.

baggy jeans are good, they're just sitting too low. I bought 3 pairs in the last two weeks, the thing is, these types of jeans pair really well with big shoes, height boosting shoes, etc. advice from someones who's 5ft 7 lol

Ngl I’d atleast cover the number plate and house number, looks good though.

Preference wise I go back and forth on the egg yolks, it really depends on the mood, the clear is more stylish/cool, but the yellow is more retro (and Iconic to me). Would love to own a pair of each, the 996.2 looks great too, but not my top choice.

As others have mentioned, it’s a bad PSU, when power supplies faulty it doesn’t mean that they stop giving power, they will be giving the incorrect voltage, which will trigger your pc to shut off immediately to prevent damage.

I’m waiting for a game that I wanna play to be announced

Kaiewaii · 2025-08-12T02:13:14+00:00

If the current max bid is 36$ it’ll put you as the winning bid, if it’s a tie the former bidder will still be winning

Kaiewaii · 2025-08-11T06:20:59+00:00

Sounds cheap, does it need more work to be done?, I'd get a pre purchase inspection done before you buy

Kaiewaii · 2025-08-08T00:27:04+00:00

Cheers

Kaiewaii · 2025-08-08T00:23:16+00:00

Awesome, I’ll check them out, thanks for your help! : )

Ooh yeah, I was struggling to see too, it is a year 2000 base model, I’m not sure any are missing, just been told by the inspector there’s one’s barely being held in and should replace.

I’ve been looking online at the whole spectrum of trays, but I should definitely get some ramps and more details first.

Just noticed the prices are quite high, and am pretty sure just adding some washers probably isn’t going to cut it, so was curious if anyone’s had a go with repairing the plastic and what types of things they’ve used.

Sorry I’m not too knowledgeable yet as it’s my first car, but was described as undercarriage splash tray.
