- This is a detailed video on how to remove a transaxle from your Porsche 944 in your own yard or garage with simple tools and no lift. It doesn't matter if you have an early car, 924S, late 944, 944S, turbo (951), or S2. This video shows how to remove all transaxles! In the next episode I will be showing how the clutch is removed, so be sure to subscribe! If you are working on an automatic 944, be sure to check out my engine pull video where I describe how to remove an engine from an auto 944!

You are providing a fantastic service to the 924/944/968 community with this series. These kinds of videos serve to turn a very daunting task (for most) into a fun, educational, and "do-able" one. I remember cutting my teeth on this procedure back in the early 2000's (before TH-cam existed) with a cold beer or two, and a printout from the "Clarks Garage" website... Fun times, but had something like this been available, the job would have gone a bit smoother in execution. Thanks for taking the time and effort to do this man, plenty of guys and gals out there will surely benefit from it.
Thanks! Making these videos has been a lot of fun and I hope that everyone continues to enjoy them!
I second the original commenters sentiments. Thank you sir for the time and effort that goes into these videos. I (as well as many others I'm sure) really do appreciate the videos. You have taken a job that know is coming my way one day and made It much less dreadful, lol.
@@edredas I am continuing to enjoy them! thank you!!
I dont even have this car but I have to say, really effin awesome of you to produce this DIY and nice work on the clutch too!
Thanks for the videos! It's been great following your adventures with your parking lot of treasures! As well, your videos being done in the backyard make it down to earth where being the ideal garage is not exactly possible for the average guy. Making those vids are not an easy task so your work is very much appreciated. Keep 'em coming!
Will do! I really appreciate the positive feedback and I want these videos to be something that everyone can do! Thanks!
Just a note to add my thanks and tip my hat for including the 924s and, of course, the tool list and layout. +1
No problem! I hope it helped!
Roger Curtis 924s guy ? 😄
@@artmchugh5644 Yes. I've had one 924 and three 924s. One is currently a race car.
Roger Curtis you may like the video I made about my girlfriend 924s .go to Arthur Mchugh on utube and check it out !😄cheers
well done. the list of tools necessary is laid out very clearly. I appreciate your attention to detail when comparing differences between year models
Thanks! I tried to cover everything so everyone could follow along!
such an awesome video gave me the confidence to start the project today👍
Awesome! Good Luck!
Dude you are awesome. I so was dreading doing this on my 1981 924 Turbo. You have given me the information I need to have confidence to make it happen. I already had to rebuild the turbo and did the timing belt and water pump, tie rod ends, and strut inserts, replace to speedo twice. I tell you if it was not so damn much fun to drive I would of dumped it a long time ago! But again thank you!
Thanks! Always glad to help! Good luck with your project!
i would have to agree with everyone else in saying fantastic job. this video is going to make my life much easier removing my own transaxle.
Thanks! Good luck with your project!
A torque tube bearing replacement video would be an awesome to the these great walkthroughs.
+sara flores I'll see what I can do!
sara flores the bearing replacement is a bit of a bastard . any of the bigger dismantlers will have a good replacement for you .check out just joshin 944 parts in Maryland !😄
Awesome!!. Your attention to detail is the best. Makes me wish I had a 944.
Thanks! They are a lot of fun, but keep you busy!
Thanks Ed. Excellent idea. That is very helpful.
Great video. So much detail, thanks.
God bless yu
Thanks, answered many questions'
Awesome! Glad it helped!
Great walkthrough.
Thank you!
love it, will make my clutch change sooo much easier
Great! Good luck!
🙏🏽 Thanks
Hey Brent… I love your TH-cam channel. It is an amazing resource so thanks for all your work. I have a 951 that recently started making a clacking sound in the rear drivers side area. It only makes the sound while in gear and under load. Do you have any thoughts on what this might be? Thanks again.
Thanks! Sounds like it could be CV axle. When they fail you will hear clicking and popping under load and while turning at low speeds. I hope that helps!
@@edredas - It really does. I’m new at this but your videos have inspired me to try and take on some of these things. Thanks again!!😊
Has anyone got any solutions to make it easier to get the plastic tube out that protects the gear linkage?
Very well-done! Nice!!
Fantastic! Thank you!!
Yes, definitely good stuff..
Nice hat!
Thanks! It’s one of my favorites. It’s a fitted custom hat that I had made nearly 20 years ago and still looks new.
Great series of videos! I'm new to the 944 world and scored a cheap automatic because of a bad dampner. It seems like it would be fairly straight forward to convert it to manual. Any chance you might be able to do a video on that? Or any suggestions for me if your not able to make a video?
Sounds like a great idea for a video! I have an automatic car that I've made a few videos on. I could probably go through and show all the parts that would need to be swapped out! If you need any help figuring out what parts you need in the time being, just let me know! Thanks!
edredas Sweet! Do you have a particular forum or facebook page you frequent where I could message you, if needed?
Sure, here's a link to my facebook page. Feel free to ask me anything! I could also put up some info on this conversion in the meantime. facebook.com/edredas-192753884577/
Love your videos. Can I ask a clutch question? My clutch feels great I believe it has been replaced during the cars life since it’s 35 years old and 186,000 miles. Anyway a few times recently my clutch pedal has not come all the way up when I let off the clutch. Each time it has happened, I’ve needed to get moving so I messed with the pedal with my foot and it fixed itself. So I haven’t had a good chance to actually see what’s happening. Is there a clutch pedal return spring or a common place for them to hang up? I can’t replicate the problem when I want to
There is a helper spring to make the pedal easier to press but there is no return spring. Typically, once the pedal starts to drop where it doesn't come up means one of the two cylinders have failed. When this happens you should replace both cylinders since they usually fail at the same time. I hope that helps!
@@edredas thanks man. Always helpful.
Do you need to mark the coupler before you slide it back? Or does it sit in a set position??
No need to mark it. You can slide it back on the other shaft in any position. The bolts line up with the grooves in the shafts and you can see them without any marks
@@edredas you're a legend sir!
Are you able to remove the bell housing without taking off the speed and reference sensor bracket on an early car? (1983)
Yes! It is possible but you need to remove the sensors from the bracket first.
Hey Ed I need to do a rear main seal on a 86 944 na is thier a way to do this job by just removing the flywheel and doing that job with the engine in the car? It's a automatic
On an automatic, you're probably better off pulling the engine to replace the rear main. There's a clip on the inside of the of the flex damper that prevents you from dropping the bell housing like you can on the manual. So with it still in the way you can't remove the flywheel and get to the rear main seal. I hope that helps!
@@edredas offcource it helps. Thanks!
@@edredas hey Ed I've unbolted all the bolts. Thier is a coupler inside the bell housing with a hex bolt I've loosened it but its still not sliding off should I take the bolt completely off?
@@BennysBenz Yup! That bolt needs to come all the way out!
Thanks for replying to a question. Do you think i can loosen the four bolts on the bell housing to try and loosen a socket that fell in. I want to keep the housing on , just loose. But i can not move the torque tube. thanks again
To loosen the bell housing you may need to put the engine on a crane and unbolt the mounts so you can pull the engine forward. I would think that if you just unbolt the bell housing without either loosening the trans or engine it won't budge. So if you can't rotate the torque tube then your only option is to loosen the engine. I hope that helps!
Hello, I have a 1987 porsche 944 turbo that's been wrecked. But the whole powertrain still works. I've been trying to find a 944 turbo shell that won't break my wallet but I cannot find one. Do you think I can stuff a 944 turbo powertrain into a 944 base car?
I'm have a similar issue at the shop. I have a wrecked 951 that will likely need a new tub. I will likely buy a new tub from a guy in Georgia that parts cars for $1000. That said, if you just want to swap everything over into an N/A it is possible! I have done the same with a 924S which is basically an early 944 tub but it required some minor modifications. If you use an 1985.5 and later N/A then everything will swap right over. I hope that helps!
