This one goes out to the Sporto world.
I am on the third torque converter seal, in 3 years, in a 905. They always leak and finally pop out, the last seal has recently been done and is already showning signs of popping again after 3 drives. The tell tail sign is oil being flicked around everywhere, which leads to smokey heat exchanges, and just general oil everywhere, which drips.
The first seal was a non geniune, which popped. The final two have been geniune Porsche, and have failed.
I'm not sure if Porsche are providing, not to spec seals.
Or is there some kind of mod the can be carried out,to help retain this seal, maybe by using some kind of high temp sealant to hold in position.
Has anyone dealt with this - it's a long shot I know because of the rarity of these boxes.
