Might want to check which water pump they used for the replacement, I was told mine was replaced right before I bought the car about a year ago.

Not sure if this has been posted or not (search did not get me what I was after) but is there a source for vin checking used Porsches with a forum member, PCA or Porsche tech.
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.

Hello everyone,
Not sure if this has been posted or not (search did not get me what I was after) but is there a source for vin checking used Porsches with a forum member, PCA or Porsche tech.
I am looking for something a little more specific to P-Cars than Car-Fax
Thanks in advance
I have sent the vin to my local dealer. Since I'm not buying the car from them, I don't expect them to do me any favours.
I'll post it up in case someone has the ability to run it. I know the 964 guys have access.

I think I used Carfax to find the dealer who sold my car, and the called them up. From the VIN they were able to provide the first 50k of maintenance records over the phone, but couldn't send me a copy for privacy reasons. I also tracked down the previous owners and now have almost a full service history for my car at 83k miles.
I did a thurough inspection today with a test drive of the 2004 C4S I am looking to buy. Car checks out visually as well as from a drivers perspective. It has a service history that documents the last 2 owners and has had a recent service replacing RMS, water pump, coolant reservoir, H&R springs. Comes with stock suspension and wheels.
Here is from todays test drive. It looks tiny beside my Raptor..lol
Looks nice. Might want to check which water pump they used for the replacement, I was told mine was replaced right before I bought the car about a year ago. My mechanic tells me they replaced it with a cheap generic brand that is already leaking and I may be due for another replacement soon.
I think you have to be a Renntech member to use that link.
I don't recall what sites were, but when I searched the internet 10 months or so ago, I found a couple of other sites that can give info about the VIN.
I got the VIN run today. Comes back clean, 3 owners, last 2 are here in TX with full history, no issues at all ..... Looks like I'll own a black C4S soon.
Said I would never have a black car again!! oooops
