Hi folks, Need some help please on my first 996 (my pristine 964 was recently stolen, and is probably in Russia by now). Can anyone please explain the difference in hours between what is shown under Range 1 and the number shown under Operating Hours Counter? There is a very slight difference (0.7 hrs) on the car I'm considering. BTW, it shows 699 ignitions under range 1. Is that the total number of engine starts, or something else? There are no Range 2 ignitions (a good thing, from what I understand). The RMS has not been replaced. The car comes with 4 years of warranty left (2 original plus 2 extended). Anything I need to be concerned about? Thanks in advance, Marc

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.
