993 Rotor Wear, Evaluation & Replacement

Please read this document from beginning to end before attempting the below procedure as there are dependent steps and notes that should be in mind before beginning.

When to replace rotors:

Rotors have a long service life on a 993 lasting between 60 and 80 thousand miles in most cases. They should be replaced when they approach their wear limit (minimum thickness) or 30mm in the front and 22mm in the rear. 

When one approaches these minimums the brakes can exhibit greater brake noise. With use, 993 rotors develop a ridge on the outermost circumference of the rotor faces. This is where the pads do not come in contact all the way to the outer edge of the rotor. If one can feel a substantial ridge develop here with one's finger, brake performance, brake feel or noise is present it indicates the rotors should be checked for wear. The difference between a new rotor and one worn to replacement thickness is only 2mm. 

Resurfacing rotors have fallen out of favor as in the process the service life is literally cut from the rotor face and new rotors from the original suppliers to Porsche have become somewhat inexpensive as replacements if purchased outside the dealer network. Seeing that replacing them is one of the most basic and simple service items done along with pad replacement it is well suited to a Do-It-Yourself approach to replacing them. For most folks, rotors are a once in life of vehicle replacement item.

The below page is from the 993 1994/1995 Technical Specification Booklet. Specifications subject to change:






Disclaimer: 

The content of this page, relates specifically to the Porsche 993 (911 1994 to1998) The authors here are not professional automotive technicians. Some of the procedures described on this page may differ from official factory recommendations and may not be the best to use in all situations.  For these reasons use the information contained on this page at your own risk. Many times a lot can be learned by simply watching qualified professionals work on your 993.

Special tools needed:

  • A breaker bar and socket for removing the caliper mounting capscrews;
  • A manual impact screwdriver (inexpensive at Harbor Freight);
  • A 5" to 8" jaw size C-Clamp;
  • A click-style torque wrench. Be aware that torque wrenches when set near the ends of their torque value range are usually not very accurate so size the torque wrench you use so the required torque value falls somewhere in the middle third of its adjustable range if at all possible.

Ordering parts and supplies needed:

  • Order the 4 rotors;
  • Pre-order 4 replacement cap screws for all years of 993 and washers as well for 1994 for mounting the front calipers, see part numbers below. Porsche recommends replacing these whenever a front caliper is removed. It probably has to do with corrosion or debris scoring the fillet under the head during removal of the fastener significantly weakening it. 
  • If you live in an area where you expect to see corrosion on the mounting capscrews it is probably a good idea to order and replace the 4 used to mount the rear calipers as well.
  • A brush-bottle of anti-seize
  • Brake Fluid to top off the reservoir.
  • A can of spray electronic cleaner.
  • 2 Cans spray brake cleaner.
  • Some dielectric grease.

Front Caliper mounting Capscrews and Washer:









The remarks column above refers to Model Year.

The model column refers to as below:

M493 = Narrow bodywork car; 

M339 = 4 wheel drive; 

M491 =  Carrera 4S.


Rear Caliper Mounting Capscrews:








It is unclear to me what the "A" prefix in a part number or why two lengths of capscrews are specified for the rear calipers in the catalog. They may be interchangeable or two different lengths were used based on VIN. This is a good question for the dealer when ordering the capscrews.

Procedure steps:

  • Break free and gently resnug the wheel nuts on the wheel-end you will be lifting off the ground to replace a rotor. Each wheel-end can be worked on individually lifting and lowering each wheel-ends as you work your way around the car replacing each rotor;
  • Lift the wheelend off the ground. This page discusses safely putting one's car on a jack stand(s)
  • Remove the wheel nuts and wheel-with-tire. Be sure to put the wheel-with-tire on the ground face-up where you will not scratch the wheel;
  • Unplug the wheel brake-pad  wear sensor wire pigtail if a sensor is present;
  • Draw down the brake reservoir with a turkey baster or a syringe before working on the rotors. After installing each new rotor I pump the brake peddle a little pushing the caliper pistons against the pads and new rotor. In this way it avoids the cumulative effect of all the wheel ends having all their piston cups pushed in causing a good volume of brake fluid to back up into the reservoir potentially overflowing it and making a mess.
  • I compress the caliper piston cups using a "C" clamp with the original pads and rotor still in place. Placing the clamp along the top edge of the caliper casting and the pad backing plate. If you have a concern about scratching the paint on the caliper face one can use a little patch of rubber to protect it from the "C" clamp's jaw. This is done so the caliper with pads are backed off to clear the outer edge of the old rotor when sliding the caliper off and allows added clearance when mounting the caliper over the new thicker rotor. 
  • Unbolt the caliper from the wheel carrier. This will take the use of a more robust 1/2 drive socket and breaker bar; 
  • Slide the caliper off the rotor. 
  • Use some coathanger wire to hang the caliper out of the way without excessively twisting the brake hose;
  • Remove the small M6x12 Countersunk Head 900.269.047.09 hold-down screws on the face of the rotor's hat attaching it to the wheel hub. These screws are usually seized if not previously removed.  They are easily removed without damaging it by using a manual impact screwdriver & hammer to pop them loose;
  • Slide the rotor off  of the wheel hub;
  • I use some brush-bottle anti-seize and very lightly coat the hub face where it comes in contact with the rotor. Use it sparingly as otherwise, it may migrate to the face of the rotor when in use;
  • If the new rotor is covered with a heavy anti-corrosion coating hose off the front and back pad contact faces with some spray brake cleaner. This can be done before or after they are mounted in position. If the faces seem bare and dry this step can be omitted;
  • Slide the replacement rotor on the hub so the hold-down screw hole(s) lines up with its matching threaded hole(s) in the hub;
  • Reinstall the hold-down screw(s) using a little anti-seize on its threads and the underside of its head;
  • Reinstall the calipers, and torque the mounting capscrews to 85NM. Use new caliper mounting cap screws on the front calipers.
  • As each wheel end is completed press the bake peddle as discussed earlier in this procedure. 
  • If your caliper capscrews are used in conjunction with washers be sure to use fresh capscrews AND washers with the washer's smooth side facing the underside of the capscrew's head. Check with the dealer as the later model years use a cap screw with a built-in washer face and may be a suitable supersession for the screw & separate washer. Using the washers with the roughly stamped side facing the cap screw head can damage the fillet radius under the head significantly weakening the fastener. 
  • If corrosion is present on the rear caliper mounting capscrews, I would consider replacing them as well. 
Some use a small amount of anti-seize on the caliper mounting bolts to thwart future corrosion. Be aware this lowers the applied mounting torque required, lower than the factory specification, for these fasteners to achieve the designed clamp load. If the torque is not properly adjusted it may compromise the fastener connection creating an unsafe condition.
  • Plug the brake pad wear sensor wire pigtail back in. 
  • Remount the wheel-with-tire and lightly snug the wheel nuts;
    • I use a small amount of anti-seize applied to the rear of the wheel at its contact points to the rotor hat;
  • Remove the jack stand and lower the tire onto the ground;
  • Retorque the wheel nuts in a star sequence to the recommended torque (130Nm) and check the value by reapplying the torque in a star sequence;
  • Before driving away pump your brakes several times to use up the space between the new rotors and the pads to avoid an initial peddle sinking to the floor braking experience. and check the level in your braking system master cylinder reservoir and top off the brake fluid as needed.
  • Be aware it takes a while for the pad/rotor interface to fully mesh so don't drive aggressively until you have a few miles on your new rotors and the pads have fully bedded into them.
  • If you applied a bit too much anti-seize to the wheel mating points it may become visible on the wheel after a few miles. It simply can be wiped off;

Cracked ceramic valve liners, Porsche 993

 P

Photo Credit Peter Mzr from Facebook



  1. " I double checked with Bruce Anderson on this, and he points out that 911's worked fine forever without ceramic liners. I believe it was an optimization for emissions as much as anything else, to get more heat into the cats more quickly. My understanding is that when machine shops redo late model heads if there is a problem with the ceramic liners they just get rid of the material. This is also done by necessity whenever the ports are enlarged for performance applications. I don't know if anyone has tried to have them recoated. Most everyone seems comfortable not worrying about it though. But if you think the cracking is enough to where pieces could flake off, and clog up the cat, then have the shop work the ports now to shake free anything that is going to fall off eventually. You might want to just have them take the stuff out and polish the ports. If you really want to replace the heads, I would shop around some of the Porsche salvage yards that advertise in Panorama magazine. There are good used heads out there at a fraction of the new prices, which are astronomical.

Porsche TSB 9401 2007



The Climate Control Unit (CCU) functions

 




The Climate Control Unit (CCU) in the Porsche  993 has the following functions:








  1. Monitor the air temperature in the cabin by blowing air over a sensor in the CCU front panel (CCU fan)
  2. Monitor the CCU fan operation
  3. Monitor the ambient (outside) air temperature
  4. Monitor the oil temperature
  5. Monitor any freezing of the A/C evaporator
  6. Monitor both front fans and rear fan operation (fault detection)
  7. Monitor the air temperature in the two front and mixer chambers (vent air temperature)
  8. Monitor the engine temperature to be able to run the aux fan in cooling mode at ignition off if needed
  9. Control the A/C condenser fan low-speed setting. (high speed controlled by pressure switch)
  10. Control the oil cooler fan in the right front fender (low and high speed)
  11. Control the front interior fan speed (two fans, 4 steps using PWM)
  12. Control the engine compartment (rear) cooling/hot air blower fan (low and high speed)
  13. Control the amount of fresh air from the front air intake (servo motor)
  14. Control the amount of heated air from the engine heat exchangers (two mixer servo motors, one for each side of the dashboard)
  15. Control the amount of air to the defroster or center vents (servo motor)
  16. Control the amount of air to the footwell vents (servo motor)
  17. Control the recirculation vacuum actuator behind the CCU on late 1995 and forward cars.
  18. Control the A/C compressor clutch mechanism
  19. Monitor the gear shift, if reverse gear is selected, both mixer valves close to avoid exhaust fumes in the cabin
  20. Activate the DME Coasting Shutoff function in the engine control unit
  21. Log any faults detected in the systems and present them through the OBD interface

Why own a 993 or 964 vs an older or newer 911

Why own a 993/964?

  • The 993/964 have a modern electrical system upgrading the reliability of the electrical system substantially versus the earlier 911.
  • The 993 & 964  OBD-1 cars provided useful diagnostic information using a code reader. The 993 OBD-II cars, 1996 forward provide comprehensive diagnostic information making diagnosing running or other system issues a lot easier.
  • The 964/993 air conditioning works reasonably well, not as good as a Toyota but functional. In the earlier cars, the AC really was not very functional in cooling the cabin.
  • For the 993 the transmission and clutch can be serviced without removing the engine from the car. This can avoid a good bit of labor cost when servicing these.
  • 993, 1995, and newer have Hydraulic engine valve adjustments. This means instead of needing the valves adjusted every 15k miles the adjusters are replaced every 60K miles or so, cutting down on periodic maintenance. The adjusters are under the valve covers and can be replaced with the engine in the car.
  • 993 & 964 cars are the last of the air-cooled Porsche 911 with iconic body styles
  • The 993/964 are considerably smaller than the newer 911
  • The 993/964 provide a much more visceral driving experience at the expense of long road trip comfort when compared to the newer 911
  • The 993/964 G50 variant transmission & shift linkage is a significant improvement over the pre-'87 Carreras making shifting a much smoother experience.
  • The 993 C4 and Turbo employ a very simple and extremely reliable 4-wheel drive system. The 964 4-wheel drive used an electronically controlled system that has proven to not be as reliable.
  • Both the 993 & the 964 shares modern MacPherson strut front suspension expanding the options for performance upgrades.
  • The 993 unlike every previous 911 uses a multi-link rear suspension with coil-over struts dramatically improving the car's behavior when driven near the limits of grip in turns. 
  • The 964 has a modern McPherson Strut Coilover suspension in the front and a significantly beefed-up version of the trailing arm suspension in the rear used previously in all earlier 911.  Replacing the torsion bars with coil-over struts improves handling and transmits a lot less road noise up through the body into the cabin. For daily driver use where the car is not pushed to the limit, the difference between a 993 and a 964 may not be apparent to many.
  • The 993 has raked headlights and more muscular body curves, and the 964 has the classic 911 look with vertical round headlights in pronounced wings and more subtle body curves. Both are wonderful-looking cars, take your pick!
  • The 964 & 993, unlike earlier cars, have power steering not requiring the roll-as-one-turns technique when parking or much upper body strength to control.
  • The 964 & 993, unlike later cars, have the simpler fixed valve timing creating a very pleasant rush in power as the car winds up into its sweet spot between 4000 & 5000rpm. Later cars with variable valve timing have a relatively flat torque curve throughout the rpm range and do not have the feeling of winding up as a 993/964 and earlier cars do. A key feature in a classic sports car.
  • For 993/964 there are a vast array of cosmetic and performance upgrades most of which can be applied by shade tree Do-It-Yourself inclined car owners.
  • New, used, or remanufactured parts are widely available at reasonable prices.
  • 993 owners are by far the most active folks on the internet sharing technical knowledge.
