9m Uprated PADM Mount Replacement Sensor - The Permanent Fix for PADM Sensor Failure
Sold each - 2 required per car
The 9m Uprated PADM Mount Replacement Sensor is a
precision-engineered solution developed to eliminate the well-known reliability
issues of the Porsche Active Drivetrain Mount (PADM) system found in 981, 718,
and 991 models.
This isn’t just an upgrade — it’s the ultimate solution trusted by Porsche owners worldwide who are tired of repeated PADM-related warning lights and costly mount replacements.
Fits:
Unlike standard replacements that replicate the original flawed design, Ninemeister completely re-engineered this component to provide a permanent fix, offering reliability, consistency, and long-term peace of mind.
What It Does
The PADM (Porsche Active Drivetrain Mount) system
dynamically adjusts engine mount stiffness to improve handling, stability, and
ride comfort.
The 9m uprated PADM sensor monitors mount performance and communicates real-time data to the car’s control module, ensuring optimal drivetrain behaviour in Normal, Sport, and Sport Plus modes.
Key Benefits of the 9m PADM Replacement Sensor:
- Permanent Solution: Eliminates error codes 001013 / 001023 caused by sensor failure.
- Re-engineered Design: Precision CNC-machined housing and secure internal chip mounting prevent vibration-induced detachment.
- Improved Durability: Withstands heat, fluid pressure, and continuous engine vibration without degradation.
- Plug-and-Play Compatibility: Direct fit for 981 (2012–2016), 991 (2011–2019), and 718 (2019–2026) models.
- Unlimited 2-Year Warranty: Backed by Ninemeister quality assurance — no more repeated failures.
This upgraded sensor ensures consistent performance of your Porsche’s active drivetrain mounts, restoring precision handling and eliminating dashboard faults once and for all.
Why PADM Sensors Fail
The original PADM sensor’s internal measuring chip is glued
in place within the mount. Over time, engine vibrations, pressure from magnetic
fluid, and heat cycles cause the chip to dislodge.
When this happens, the sensor sends incorrect readings to
the control unit, triggering Check Engine Lights (CEL) and fault codes such as 001013
/ 001023.
Symptoms may include:
- Illuminated CEL or drivetrain warning lights
- Inconsistent
handling in Sport / Sport Plus modes
- Engine
mount replacements with no lasting fix
- Reduced performance response
Ninemeister’s uprated sensor resolves this by replacing the glued chip with a mechanically secured, vibration-resistant mounting system — permanently eliminating the root cause of PADM failure.
Why It Should Be Replaced
Replacing a failing PADM sensor with the 9m Uprated Version ensures your Porsche maintains its original handling precision and eliminates costly repeat repairs.
Benefits of Replacement:
- Eliminate Dashboard Errors: Permanently fixes error codes 001013 / 001023.
- Restore Sport Mode Performance: Revives adaptive drivetrain control for consistent handling.
- Save Money Long-Term: No need for frequent sensor or mount replacements.
- Peace of Mind: Backed by an unlimited 2-year warranty for worry-free ownership.
- Direct Fit: Simple plug-and-play installation — no modifications required.
- Built by Experts: Engineered by Ninemeister, a trusted name in Porsche performance innovation.
This sensor upgrade transforms your PADM system from a weak point into a permanent reliability upgrade.
