H5 Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 If you go 996, can you come back and tell us how many miles the engine had done when it does a Will Smith?? (goes tick tick tick tick, BOOM!) Sorry to see you go...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyvvc Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 ^^^^ Yep, do lots of research on the 996 engine before you even *think* of buying one! Zentrum Porsche (indy specialists) in Calverton, Notts are very good to chat to. 996 engine isnt totally un-reliable, but if it decides to go pop it will cost $$$$ Isn't Marzman an anagram of "Going to buy a 370 next" ?

Heh heh... not a fan of the 370 yet - its a bit too lardy. I was totally unaware of bad engines in the 996's... guess it'll be another zed after all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 http://www.porscheenginefailure.com/ http://www.total911.com/news/466/ Informed means in control! A good friend had one go pop. It took a LOT of work getting Porsche to do anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took a LOT of work getting Porsche to do anything. Agree there - im not the type of person to buy something without knowing all the details first... so i wouldnt have just gone and bought one with out due diligence so to speak. Useful links though, i'll have a read cheers Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
