Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. 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.

Seems like there are a lot of early Turbos running around without heated seats...don't know what that is, though, especially when they're heavily-optioned otherwise.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

If not this car in particular, any thoughts on the car condition? Are the miles worrysome? I know to have a PPI done, but am I going to be looking at things starting to wear out or break on the car? TIA Derek http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsc...mZ110295889603

POST 2Original post

Man alive, the Turbos are getting cheap. From what I know--and I've just started what I expect to be a long process of Turbo-shopping myself--they're pretty bulletproof cars. Yes, you'll want to have a PPI done, and while I can't think of anything obvious and major you need to look out for, I'm not the best guy to ask. Sorry...

POST 3Original post

wow....that's a sick price...if it's good shape of course...dont think I've seen one that low...has the facelift, I guess all the 01 turbos did. Good luck! yes...PPI. While the mileage is a bit high, it's certainly not thru the roof. J

Yeah, but no heated seats. And its Tiptronic oh well.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Uh oh, may have let cat out of bag... J/K I am sure the tip is bringing the price down some, as are miles but yeah, I was also surprised to see a turbo in the 30's. Another thought I had was, would one be better off to drop another 10K on the front end to maybe avoid some bigger bills on the back end. The car would likely see <5K miles per year. Decisions, decisions...

POST 7Original post

Haven't seen an option code sticker quite like this before...

POST 8Original post

The price just seems to good to be true, even considering mileage it's 15 to 20k below average value.

Check out the rest of the Turbos on eBay--this appears to be the cheapest one, but there are plenty in the low $40s all of a sudden.

POST 11Original post

2001, high mileage and its a tip... = cheap... Its about right where it should be.
