Well, it's the transmission (tip). And apparently it broke in such a manner so that it can't be repaired. Just my luck.
So, looks like a $3500 repair +/-.
It couldn't have been a flat tire?

A blown engine from an IMS bearing failure would cost you easily 3 to 7 times that amount, depending whether the replacement was new, or tired.
So... think of it this way - you have $10k left over for Xmas.
db997s recently paid $8k for a tune-up, oil, brakes, and tires. And the dealer didn't even buy him dinner/wine first.Quote

Well said; at this point I'm wondering what the supply of junkyard motors for the 986 are at this point, given they've been out of production for a long time. On the 997 side, the 3.8L--used--runs about $15K + installation, based on a what a friend went through.
