How long do the shocks typically last on a 996? I'm at 48k miles, and my front shocks are about gone - frot of the car is feeling a little vague in hard corners and squeak like old bedsprings at low speeds. Also, I'm tempted to upgrade instead of replace, is H&R the way to go? Are there any upgrades from Porsche that can be applied to a '99 996?

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.

I would suggest conversion to RoW (Rest of World) M030 sports suspension. It is a factory kit that consists of shocks, springs,and sway bars. The height will drop about 20mm front and 10mm rear. It makes for a very nice handling Porsche. <a href="http://www.carnewal.com" target="_blank">www.carnewal.com</a> <a href="http://www.andial.com" target="_blank">www.andial.com</a>
Thanks for the response. Do you know the cost on the kit by any chance?
