What common 964 issues do you see from Short Hills owners?
The most common 964 issue we address is Oil Leaks. Our approach: Engine reseal addressing multiple common leak points. Thermal cycling causes gasket deterioration. We see this regularly from Short Hills customers and have the specialized tooling and experience to handle it properly.

What does 964 service cost for Short Hills residents?

As an independent specialist, we're typically 20-40% less than dealer rates while providing Gold Meister expertise. Contact us for a detailed estimate specific to your 964.
Should Short Hills 964 owners convert to a single-mass flywheel?
The 964's dual-mass flywheel (DMF) is a known wear item that develops noise and vibration with age. Many Short Hills 964 owners opt for a single-mass flywheel conversion, which eliminates the DMF failure mode entirely and provides a more connected pedal feel. We perform this during clutch replacement, combining both jobs during the same engine-out service.
What does 964 G50 transmission service include for Short Hills owners?
The G50 5-speed transmission is robust but benefits from regular fluid changes and synchro assessment. For Short Hills 964 owners noticing balky shifts—especially into second gear when cold—synchro wear is the likely cause. We assess synchro condition during fluid changes and can recommend when a rebuild is approaching. Carrera 4 models also need transfer case and front differential service.
