The service guy told me I didn't need that and recommended some minor service where they just checked the car and changed the oil.

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.

Took delivery in June 2001 in Minneapolis and drove her to Seattle. About time for the first oil change. I'm curious about tires and the clutch too.
22K miles on my 99 C2. Replaced all tires at 20K. No other service issues except replacement of Mass Air Flow Sensor a month ago and tightening up a few interior rattles.
'99 c2 coupe with 25k miles. Tires changed at 15k as well as 15k mile service and oil change every 5k miles and brake pads changed at 20k mark(done a few DE events). Other then the TSB stuff that was taken care of early on it's been running great. Regards. Mike
6200 miles on my '02 996-C2.Took delivery in Feb. Most came after 2000 mile break-in. Trip from Ct to Fla.& back put 'em on!
Best trip to Fla.-truly a dream come true!
1999 C2 with 48,500 miles. Rear tires at 15K, complete set at 30K with Pirelli P-Zero's. Have 18.5K on Michelin Pilot Sports with plenty of tread on all fours. Clutch went at 38K. Need new brakes now. Cam covers leaked at 3K, main rear seal at 6K, two coolant reservoirs and sundry other warranty items, all professionally handled by Porsche. Coolant reservoir is the one that reallyl p#$@ses me off as second one was supposed to be the redesigned one. Don't know mileage when first one failed, but second one was at about 48K. Unfortunately, I know my service writer WAY to well. Despite problems, car is wonderful and I love driving it, just won't buy another one!
2000 C2 P996
I have 21,000km and the car has been to 22 lapping days. No problems, normal maintenance. I now trailer the car to events further than 500km.
2001 C4 cab 21k miles Exactly 1 year old now. Replaced all 4 tires at 18k miles oil changes every 5k miles (do em myself) Only been to dealer once to program airbag cutoff for child seat!
Had a '99 cab that I took delivery on in Oct. '98 and had 55k mi. when I sold it in Oct. 2001. Replaced rear tires at 30k mi, front at 40k. No major problems other than the well known minor warranty issues. Now have '02 cab with almost 11k mi. since Oct. 2001. No mechanical problems except for a very squeaky convertible top that dealer fixed. Rear tires (Conti Sport 2) do not look like they'll get more than 15k mi.
Took delivery on our 2002 Carrera C2 coupe in September 2001, we have 4,000 miles on our "honey"

2000 MY 996 Coupe. Delivered May 2000. 11,300 street miles. Took the car in at 10,000 miles to get the 15,000 mile service. The service guy told me I didn't need that and recommended some minor service where they just checked the car and changed the oil. I'll probably take the car in again at 15,000.
Many people I have talked to say that with the synthetic oil, there is no need to do an oil change every 5k.
I'm looking forward to buying a new set of wheels and tires, but tires still look fine.
Anyone have any recommendations on wheels?
2002 C4S, Feb delivery, 3600 miles. Aside from a low power steering fluid level missed by the dealer (and me) during pre-delivery inspection, the car has been bullet-proof. Not much help here. Thanks for posting this topic, though. Big help for my future needs.
4400 miles with absolutely no problems! best car i have ever owned--excellent fit and finish. psm virtually never comes on except in extreme conditions.
my only concern is that only 2 tires are made in sizes appropriate to the turbo and c4s pzero assyms and conti 2's. i wish the bridgestone so3's came larger for better wet traction. i would appreciate any suggestions. <img src="confused.gif" border="0">
29000 miles. rear tires replaced at around 13000 miles due to bad alignment. Car came with conti's. they are noisy, I will not use them again. uses vertually no oil between changes which I now do every 10k miles, (every 5k for the first 20k miles) Had a radial fracture in the wood grain on the 3 spoke steering wheel. Porsche replaced under warranty. ragtop makes a clacking noise when it is cold out, until the car warms up. otherwise she is a dream.
