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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Porsche has announced that it will reimburse or repair any and all IMS issues that have occured with their 996, 997, and 987 models due to an improper engine design culminating in perhaps the largest recall in automotive history. Porsche decided that this would be the only way to avoid a massive class action suit, and will honor any IMS claims that have caused catastrophic engine failures. Repairs by Independant shops and Porsche factory trained franchises will need verification and actual receipts in order to to qualify for a full refund from the factory. Regardless of whether you are the original owner or a successive owner, this action will be across the board regarding coverage. New Porsche management have decided to take this unprecdented measure in order to foster and protect Porsche's good name and reputation in the automotive industry. Please contact your nearest dealer for additional information and schedule an appointment for youe IMS reimbursement.

Quotes source post: 7445555

Actually, I was told that since we drive our cars upside down the chance of an IMS issue is negligible?

POST 11Original post

Can I include my wife in this recall? She broke my shaft off when we first got married but refuses to fix it now. Sorry wrong forum....

POST 12Original post

In other news, Porsche announced a joint venture with chinese investors. The plan is to build Porsche product in China for domestic consumption. The Chinese arm will be called Fu-King Motors after their founders ....

POST 13Original post

Bob, COngrats on getting the new RS. While the content of your avatar pic is awesome, the pic itself doesn't do the car justice. You need a better pic. Just my opinion. Damn, why do I keep messing with the moderators?

did you have less notice that April 1st was coming than the rest of us?

POST 21Original post

Got me GOOD. The best April's Fools yet!!! Funny thing, I really thought (just for a second) that Porsche North America really put its customers foremost in the scheme of things. Just think, wouldn't it be fair and just if PNA would fess up to an apparent flaw in their engineering. If Porsche is not going to own up to their mistakes, one must only think twice ( or trice) on purchasing or recommending another Porsche. How many cars out there in today's world, have an engine life expectancy of less than 100K. But tomorrow, is April 2nd and we go back to the real world and wait for our RMS or IMS failure, hoping that our credit card company doesn't reduce our limit below $16K.

POST 22Original post

I emailed PCNA this morning and told them I had read about some IMS problems. They said they were sending me a check for $10,000 to cover my knowledge of the IMS issue.

POST 23Original post

My car was just replaced with a TT and an apology, in addition, all boxsters are to be replaced with 911's, and if that was not enough, porsche recalled all 17 inch wheels and issued new 20's bling bling. schweet!

POST 25Original post

That was so good it took me a good 30 second to think about the date.... I hope PCNA read this thought, so they could take it as a wake up call.

POST 26 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Don't hold your breath...you won't make it.
