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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Sorry for the stupid question everyone. I have a 996 and I see the 4 points where I can place the jack - however, I am trying to get the back and/or front on stands to do some painting of the calipers. When the Jack is lifting one side, where is the stand supposed to go? I am confused since the jack is already on the point where apparently it is the ONLY place the car can be lifted? Is there a certain trick to do this that I am not thinking of? Or am I so mechanically and street-smart declined that I should just give up? Thanks in advance for your patience and help.

speaking of damage... be careful on the jacking points in the engine area... make sure it is not caught on the pan and such.
