Water pump (upgrade) - 996 Carrera 2/4/4S, Turbo, GT2, GT3
Like all high-performance water-cooled vehicles, getting rid of heat is critical to the performance, efficiency, and longevity of your Porsche.
The lightweight plastic impeller in your waterpump is constantly heat-cycled and exposed to coolant, and failure could have expensive consequences, that don t bear thinking about.
Some specialists (LN Engineering for one) recommend a 5 year or 100,000km replacement interval - and while the factory doesn t state a replacement interval in the service handbook, this doesn t feel unreasonable.
This high-performance German-made Geba pump is a direct replacement for your Mezger engined 996, and an upgrade for the M96 powered due to increased flow.
Treat your Porsche to a cooling system refresh for summer (or before your next trip to the track); replace your water pump, swap in a lower temperature thermostat, and change any hoses that have gone soft - and drive reassured that your cooling system is up to the job.
