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.

Tony, a lot of us up north use David Ringsgwandl (Ringsgwandl Motor Sport) 0438 140 783. Great guy, knows P's very well, does Targa and race prep and builds for both Air cooled and water cooled cars. He does my regular maintenance on the 981, GT3 and 996.2 C2
@ANF
and other southerners may be able to comment on on southern options
I do all of my own repairs and maintenance, if I get really stuck I am yet to find someone.....
You could try Bocchino Motors (euro specialists/ bodyworks), Nino knows Porsche, but wont be cheap.
Thanks for the recommendations. (Sorry - haven't been on the forum as much as I would like!
😥
)
But the 996 has just had an "incident". I fear major mechanical work will be needed. Had just noticed a faint new sound from the engine, slowed down to hear properly and it stalled. And now won't turn over. I'm fearing any combination of "the worst".
In this context, do we still recommend David? (As opposed to crossing the Straight?)
Thanks for any ideas!
Cheers,
Tony.
Hi mate are you based in Hobart/ Lton? If in Hobart,I have heard that Autotechnic is very good. Nino is excellent for AC cars and so is Gary at SCC! Gary can do up to 997s.
Hope that helps and hope it is something simple.
Take care and good luck!
Hey man, worth having a look with local guys if youre based in hobart but i did hear David is the man in Tassie. ( it is a tough one!) Scott uses them at AutoT and swears by them and they have been superbly friendly each time I have been there.
