Porsche Clutch Pilot Bearing - Genuine Porsche 93010202500

Product Information

A pilot bearing is a small bearing located at the end of the crankshaft, which helps to properly align the transmission input shaft when the clutch is disengaged; a failing pilot bearing often manifests as a whining or grinding noise, particularly when engaging or disengaging the clutch, along with potential difficulty shifting gears, vibrations, and in severe cases, the transmission popping out of gear.

• Noises: A whining, grinding, or whirring sound when depressing or releasing the clutch pedal.
• Shifting issues: Difficulty shifting gears, especially into first or reverse, or the transmission popping out of gear.
• Vibrations: Feeling vibrations through the clutch pedal or steering wheel, particularly when accelerating.

About Genuine Porsche

The original parts used by Porsche to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Porsche” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Porsche, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Porsche Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Porsche are not necessarily manufactured by Porsche. No cause for concern, as Porsche designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Porsche for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Porsche parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Porsche logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
