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.

as you, my overly helpful brethren, have led me to be dubious of such low mileage examples, the ppi was performed, indicating overall structural and mechanical righteousness (nary a drop from our friend the rms), but a suggestion to change the oil and other fluids.

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.

like many of the new porsche owners here, i've been lurking around the forums studying, reading, and generally trying to suck as much knowledge from your collective brain as possible before jumping in.

as you, my overly helpful brethren, have led me to be dubious of such low mileage examples, the ppi was performed, indicating overall structural and mechanical righteousness (nary a drop from our friend the rms), but a suggestion to change the oil and other fluids.
and now, with servicing out of the way, i am finally able to what you all always say: put some miles on it!
thanks for all of the congrats...
yes im in manhattan. practical car for an impractical place.
i chose that photo to start us off because i liked the wagoneer in the front, and the "simply perfect."
but as i said, i had to put some miles on it.
so without further ado...
kentucky & tennesee (nj, pa, wv and ohio don't make this first cut from the road)
