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.

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.

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

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Well u r in the 996 forum which doesnt help but we probably cant diagnose anything over the internet until u give us the engine code number. Buy a $20 dongle that conects to your phone from amazon or a decent scanner for obd2 and get back to us. Most autoparts stores will read the codes for free but i wouldnt start or drive the car until the codes r known.

Unfortunately it’s a Porsche and **** costs money even asking for help or questions my bet is coils but you really need a tech with knowledge

The ONLY way to not spend a couple of dollars on a broken Porsche is by turning it into yard art.
