Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Suspected cause
I suspect the ease at which you can get the car moving now is possibly hiding the fact that the balance hasn't actually changed.

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.

..pretty much decided on a 350x HR, however I would just like to clarify what I have heard on Caymans first....
Is it true that the engines have a fundamental engineering design flaw? (I believe it was cylinder walls / water jacket) - If so, is this true of all models? - My budget would be sub £15k for first car
Any more issues to be aware of in this price bracket? - Does a sub 20k budget lift you out of this problem?

Yes, no, yes, no. Search aplenty on here and planet 9 forums and all will be revealed!
There's a disclaimer about me being an opinionated b

I make no apologies for it. Feel free to counter any of them or highlight any inaccuracies. I'm big enough that I can admit when I'm wrong and make changes. Have done to that a couple of times now. The opinion bits though, they're mine and fairly obvious.

Weird that, mine went the other way. Definitely less prone to understeer on the 17's than it was on the 18's. Maybe it's a power thing? With the S you have you've got a lot more power to unstick the rears, whereas with the 2.7 with the big wheels it took serious effort when on the move, such is the traction on offer. Either that or mins's just got some weird geometry going on... Either way I noticed the understeer a lot more on the 18's... I suspect the ease at which you can get the car moving now is possibly hiding the fact that the balance hasn't actually changed. It's all voodoo

I cannot see a change in wheel size affecting the balance that much with the same tyre contact patch.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
