And if you did have to replace an o-ring (doubtful) you would have to take the valve cover off.

If I keep this one long enough, I would definetly like to change the wheels and do PSS10s.
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.

So the slick50 fixed the engine tick? But what did he do about the coolent leak from above the trans? Wonder if the stopleak took care of it?
Im joking! Enjoy the car. He was always a good guy here on the board.
I like the pedals, know where they are from? They look different then the ones from Rennline or any others that I've seen.

Maybe the Suncoast set?

Congrats, re-welcome (yes, a bit late to this party- but fashionablty so, eh?) enjoy the new miles and smiles and perhaps I will see you at LCMT later this month? It would be nice to meet other RL'ers.
Nice 996!
You won't have to worry about spark plug tubes and o-rings on a 02 or newer 996. The newer design is a big improvement. And if you did have to replace an o-ring (doubtful) you would have to take the valve cover off.
Enjoy!
The 2002 is much faster than my 1999 C4 but that's understandable because its RWD and has the extra 200cc of displacement. My C4 had x74 suspension which made the ride alot better than the oem stuff that's on my C2 right now. If I keep this one long enough, I would definetly like to change the wheels and do PSS10s.
Good to know, plugs alone will be much easier to replace!
