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.

Hi I am about to purchase a 1999 996 with 60000 +- miles and I need to know what I need to be looking for besides the normal stuff. I do have a 914 74 but this is a different beast so please give me some guidance on my first Porsche Sincerely Ivan
Not sure what you mean by "normal stuff " like rear main seal , intermediate shaft bearing, clutch, etc....? These are the normal issues with a used 996 that can cost you big time if you don't have em checked. Would make sure the car comes with all the maintainance history. Get a pre-purchase inspection by a Porsche pro and take his/her advise. The money you spend will be well worth it and you ignore there advise at your financial peril.
