I know the topic has been done to death but If you're buying a manual car, get a specialist to pull the diagnostic data to check for over-rev readings and any other anomalies.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I know the topic has been done to death but If you're buying a manual car, get a specialist to pull the diagnostic data to check for over-rev readings and any other anomalies. I presume the main Porsche dealer will do this for me can anyone confirm please .

POST 4Original post

All very easy for OPC and good indys to check mate. I am not sure if I am totally correct on how it goes now but used to be anything in RR 4 and a compression test is needed if you want the car to have an OPC warranty. RR 5 and 6 its pretty much curtains for that although I think I read that even if it has recorded a RR 6 but it was over 200 operating hours ago then it can still be considered..(happy to be corrected on that). Couple of other things...there was a good thread on here recently about a guy with a 997TT that suffered from 'rev flair' on start up. Was something to do with a sensor I believe and this was recording on RR data and an OPC confirmed this by tests. Not sure if it became a recall but quite costly to be sorted as its an engine out job for a relatively small fix. Finally I was also told something I didn't know recently by a chap called Ken at 9e who knows tons about this sort of thing that if the car has had a DME or ECU remap, this creates a 'count' on the car's brain and OPC's can or should then record this against the VIN no.
