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.

Finally, check to make sure the windshield wipers have been replaced (really - mine disintegrated in a rain storm the morning after I bought the Cayenne.).

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.

13 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 2Original post

Yes. By a good Porsche indie. Wait - you found a 996 CPO?

POST 3Original post

I would, cost me $150 in 2014, worth the piece of mind and knowledge of known issues and can be a point of negotiation.

POST 5Original post

From your member card I see that you are in SC. Where are you located? I am in Lexington close to Columbia.

POST 6Original post

I just went through this on a CPO car. Absolutely yes. Get a PPI.

POST 7Original post

There's a very eye opening thread on this very topic in the 997 forum. Long story, short... Yes! T

POST 8Original post

kinda - you are really not looking for mechanical problems per se - those are covered But all wear items are not - such as brakes/tires/etc make sure all services are up to date - and make sure all the tires new less than 6 years and N rated and obviously look at condition If you can see it in person and inspect everything then no but if buying out of state - absolutely

POST 9Original post

Things I know: Not all dealers follow PCNA's full CPO requirements. Get a PPI. And... Make sure that all services due, or nearly due, are complete. Ask for proof. Make sure you negotiate for the latest PCM update, if the car is so equipped. This is not part of the CPO process - surprisingly. Dealers charge up to $600 depending on year and model. Finally, check to make sure the windshield wipers have been replaced (really - mine disintegrated in a rain storm the morning after I bought the Cayenne.). PCNA's CPO program is fabulous, not all dealers are the same.

POST 10Original post

I didn't know CPO was even possible on a 996. No age restrictions on CPO?
