I started changing the spark plugs tonight and snapped the attached photo of the number six cylinder (passenger side, forward most). It looks like bore scoring to me. But I know there are people here that can give the picture a closer look. The car is a 997.1 Carrera S with about 77K miles. The car is a Texas car since 2020 and gets about 3K miles per year. I have two quick questions: For those of you who just enjoyed the car and did not worry about the bore scoring, how long did you make it before the bore scoring necessitated a rebuild? For those of you who ended up rebuilding the engine and lining the cylinder, what was the final out the door price you paid? Thanks everyone.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
