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.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

I live in northern VA and the car was in PA just north of Wilmington, DE so I took the train up, checked the car out, made the deal and drove it home.

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

I posted back in the beginning of March just before I bought the vehicle but I felt a formal introduction was in order. I bought this 2002 C2 on March 13th. The car had 3500 miles on it when I got it. Manufacture date is 09/01. Options include: Partial Aero (just incase you couldn't tell from the photo ) Advanced Technics Full power seats Rear wiper CD Changer Sun Roof 17inch Wheels Lapis Blue Metalic Grey Leather And now, clear side markers. I live in northern VA and the car was in PA just north of Wilmington, DE so I took the train up, checked the car out, made the deal and drove it home. I have since put 1500 miles on the car and am loving every minute of it. This included driving it to NC the day after I got it, averaging 29mpg. I was impressed. I am upgrading from a 1995 968 that I have had for 6 years. Things I would like to do: Mandatory SSK Complete the Aero kit Paint protection film (what do people think about this?) PSS9 I have lots of questions but I will ask those in seperate posts because I find this easier for folks to deal with than one big list, and it gets better response. And finally, the obligatory photo:

POST 2Original post

POST 3Original post

jerler - Welcome and Contats on getting the 996. SCHWEEET looking ride. Love the color, (however, I am biased), the skirts and wheels. Enjoy it. Yes, I can recomment the SSK. Easy DIY. Clear bra - some like it others don't. It's really a personoal preference. Depends on how **** you are about stone chips.

POST 4Original post

POST 5Original post
