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.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

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 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

SOLD I removed this from my 2004 996 for Autocross classification reasons. Miss the sound it makes already. K&N says it makes 22 whp. over stock setup. Used for approx 10K miles. Never been cleaned (or re-oiled) as the site says at earliest it should be 50K miles. thanks!

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My thoughts too. But the PO had it on when I bought it. Luckily, he had the stock box. So with the help of another R-lister, I picked up the snorkle I needed and the K&N is now ready to go to someone who wants that experience.

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