Read evidence and context

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.

Discussions that contain suggestions: 1

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.

Ideally, the rest of the engine should be clean so that the oil leak can be clearly seen.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi I'm looking for a high quality, high resolution photo of the underside of an 996 engine with an RMS leak. Ideally, the rest of the engine should be clean so that the oil leak can be clearly seen. There's a free subscription to Total 911 for any photos we use! Many thanks

POST 2Original post

Oh Phil, I just had mine repaired and no pics...sorry. Timing is everything. Finally got to pick up the 1st issue and I must say that i was impressed. Great quality. We will see how long it takes for issue 2 to hit Barnes and Noble here in Albuquerque.

I have some high-res RMS leak photos from a 964 if you would like to compare and contrast...
