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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

All, Does anyone happen to know of a PPI mechanic in the Springfield, MA area? I've been in the market now for about 2 months and I've narrowed down my search to a C4S. A couple of C4S's that I seriously looked at turned out to be duds. On actually had the RMS changed 4 (yes four) times. I walked, actually ran, away from that one. It also had a bunch of other small issues Thanks in advance for your help. Eric

POST 2Original post

You're kind of in the middle between NER and CVR, both of whom have some great indys. Here is a list of the NER wrenches: http://www.porschenet.com/JCMS/content/view/54/48/ Some of them on the list are definitely worth the hour or so trip from Springfield IMHO.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Dave, Thanks. I just checked their web site, they see like a good place to go. Do you have any experience with them? Thanks, Eric

POST 5Original post

Eric, The only experience I have with them is talking with the owner on the phone when I was semi-seriously starting to think about looking for a used 911. He seemed like a straight shooter and very knowledgable, but other than that I have no first hand (or even second hand) experience to steer you toward or away from him, sorry. Dave

POST 6Original post

For a 996 PPI there is nobody in western Massachusetts that I would use. The only place in the area with any real experience is the local dealership and you know what they say about not saying anything if you have nothing good to say... JE Robison would be okay for pre-964 model. I would venture slightly south to Connecticut, about an hour away in Canton is Automobile Associates.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
