Stalling when warmed up and extended cranking time to restart

The Baron3 · 25 Jun 2024

The solonoid change in a 996.2 is relatively easy compared to the 996.1, glad you’ve sorted it

It was the crankshaft position sensor that was at fault. Can't remember the code it threw up on the reader when I was able to get it to but it translated to the crankshaft sensor.

@daviesjp - do you mind sharing how much you paid to get the new crank sensor fitted (assuming a garage/specialist did the job)? I have the same problem on a 996.1. Thanks!

Hi @BigDaddy911 I bought the sensor from GSF for around £50 and then had a local garage fit it for £90. I was lucky as he managed to get it out without the bolt snapping as he took his time and was very gentle with it.

Thanks @daviesjp for the quick response. Much appreciated. Glad it wasn't too expensive to sort. Did that fully resolve all your 'warm engine stalling' and 'warm engine restart' issues? Thanks again.

Yes completely fixed the issue
