Hello 11 professionals, we have been dreaming of a 997 convertible for some time. Now we have found in an auction a car that we would like very much: 997 4s Cabrio PDK EZ 11/2010 Silver / Leather black 16000 km Bose, SAGA, Sport Chrono, sports seats (looks after GT3 seat on the photos) Dynamic corner light Turbo II wheel Tempostat vehicle is in a hall for storage for 1.5 years, so inspection is due. What can be defective after 1.5 years of service life, what do you have to reckon with? How much can one offer for such a thing? Thank you for your help, greetings, Thilo

Hey, just been to the Porsche center with a Cayman S from my buddy, he bought a set of 19″ turbo wheels, and he wanted to buy winter tyres for it, tell him, in the winter there are only 18″ registered…. What please???????? Is that so, or what is this nonsense, and if so what can you do? So I only know, 19″ registered, then no matter what tires are on it. Can anyone help? Thanks already

Last week, when I picked up the 991.2 turbo (2016 year, checkbook, etc.) from the garage, the tyre pressure loss warning came forward with the indication that the front right (and only there) -0.5 bar was available for the nominal pressure. The car had been standing 3 weeks ago. The control at the gas station showed that the display was correct. I filled up the missing 0.5 bar and since then I have constantly observed the air pressure during the ride via the multifunctional display. last Wednesday and I have since driven about 200 km, highway, city traffic and highway (with max. 200 km/h). Result: No more pressure changes compared to the other tires, i.e. the same cold values and the same pressure increase when driving by 0.2 to 0.3 bar. ? Does anyone have an idea what was / is going on? It is well known that a tire, rim or valve cannot repair itself. I wait until MItte next week (without driving), and if the tire then a In the meantime, I would be grateful for every tip, especially if there is no further change. The rim and tyres are in an optically flawless condition. The summer rims are the original Porsche Turbo wheels (part number 991 044 601 52) and were purchased and assembled together with new tyres at the PZ in spring 2019. In November 2019, the winter bikes came on top and in April 2020 the summer bikes, i.e. those on whose wheel of the pressure compartment All works were carried out in the PZ. Greetings rab2

Hi forum, I’ve been having problems with the 912 year 1969 for a long time. It doesn’t matter if the machine was cold or warm. The ignition works, all electrical consumers and lamps work, only when the engine starts up … nothing does. Neither the starter turns, nor moves anything else. However: wait after the first attempt 10 – 15min the car starts, as if nothing had been, then it runs perfectly. After the holiday woll This afternoon I moved him a little bit, he also jumped spontaneously. When driving out of the garage I strangled him unfortunately and since then the symptom described above appears again. Unfortunately, he doesn’t start at all anymore. I pushed him into the garage now, maybe you know something about it. Oh yes, starter and battery are new, I checked the fuses. If there is a little bit of the ignition lock in the suspicion, it is possible that the starter “nothing” And what else does someone know about this small toggle switch (marked) below the lower dashboard (under radio/heating)? Did they think it was an immobilizer, but unfortunately they can’t be started with it either… Thanks Max

I haven’t followed Porsche for 30 years, I had Targa and then the first SC convertible new, I turned off Porsche in 1983 after in the PZ Wien Liesing the Porsche employees were only envious, mistrustful and after the young Postrche drivers against arrogant, aud today I know they have not even earned pocket money against our income in the 70 and 80s. After several Ferraris,600 S, and SL today I have to put my hat in front of Postrche like the second For me an incentive to acquire some F and G models, already to make my numerous jacks colder. May I ask myself to teach which G and F models I should start collecting, I tend to Targa. With best thanks and a beautiful Easter Monday Mick

A former student colleague (same age as me … somewhere between BurnOut, Midlife-Crisis and heart attack) is looking for a summer toy. After the children are out of the house, a two-seater without a roof is enough – but with sufficient luggage compartment, that you can drive to the WE. There are about 30 k€ available. After there is a whole bunch of possibilities in the room (Z4, MR2, MX5, etc.) I try to convince him of a “small Zuffenhausener”. Maybe you can help me and provide me with some convincing arguments. TIA, Tom

Hello Porsche Fans Would like to buy new Xenon burners for my Porsche Boxster S, the old ones are far too yellowish for me. At ebay there are günstge burners, but the what? or which brand could you recommend to me. White light would be my favorite. On occasion I would also exchange the stand lights, nebulizers, it should fit the overall picture. Greeting Matthias

I ordered my Cayenne Diesel last week and can now change it. Basically I want an elegant, decent, not a motty car.Therefore I ordered black with fullheather outside and only 19″. If the 19″ should appear too small, I take it for the winter.With the 20″ I don’t like any so right and 21″ I don’t seem decent enough again. Originally I wanted black Reeling and black outer strips etc., but somehow the silver belongs to the m car, especially the aperture on the tailgate. I thought about whether I should maybe take the darkened taillights, but I am not sure if this does not look too “tuned”. The problem is that I haven’t seen anyone with the lights, neither at the dealer nor on the road. Does someone have the configuration black/silver ledges with the dark taillights and could send me a picture to my PIN or in the topic – that would be great!

Hello, I would like to help a friend who currently has the following problem: Vehicle: Porsche Panamera 3.0 Model 970, Diesel Key-Nr. 0583 AEV First registration: 26.02.2013 The vehicle opens and closes via the remote control, but if you turn the ignition key over, nothing happens, no matter which stage, everything remains dead. If you plug the key now with the ignition switched on and the battery plugs off and plugs again, everything goes on in the cockpit for about 3 seconds, ohh e Error messages etc. and after that everything goes out. Since you cannot perform such a diagnosis, he currently does not know any advice. In the workshop (not Porsche, but also the workshop of my trust), relays, cables, fuses, ECUs have already been checked. The engine control unit was also sent for repair on suspicion, with the result that everything is fine. Does anyone have any idea what to consider next?
