These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

13 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

All the way to Spain and back and not a single problem. 2830 miles and not a wimper. Car ran like a dream. Started the car this afternoon and it sounded like a bag of nails loose in the engine! What now! Car being flatbedded into Tech9 tommorow. fingers & toes crossed!..........walks off crying......

POST 2Original post

Noooooo! I don't understand this. What on earth is going on??? I hope it's nothing serious. Fingers crossed...

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The engine seems to run/idle OK just horrible noises at start up. The noises "mostly" went away after the car warmed up and no smoke out the back. There is a distinct rattle on de-accelaration. It really does sound like something is loose in the engine! Oil is still clear like new even after that huge trip and nothing indicates that it needs a top up. I hope its nothing serious but it sure sounds like ££££.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

...could've been your phone going off- Crazy Frog ringtone?[ ] Not funny I know, Tech9 I should imagine will be more interested in your car that Mann Island, who will undoubtedly be only interested in offering you 2 Roubles (if you're lucky) for your 996, as a trade in for a new £70K+ 997 (without options) rather than solving any problems with your car. I do hope this latest issue turns out to be a non event.

POST 6Original post

It does sound like the Crazy Frog. Have you checked your call register on your Nokia? Do that first, then Tech9. I think it was the incident with the BMW M5. It's time to sell and move onwards and upwards. I have been driving my 996 with an RMS problem for 2 months now, absolutely fine though. Even got 171mph on the M4 last night. Hope it goes ok, let us know what the outcome is.[ ] Si

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Bernie sorry to hear the news. Hope its nothing serious.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks guys. on its way to Tech9 now. Will let you know what they say. VORLAND, I heard along the grapevine your engine blew up! Give me a all mate.

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yeah... Was at Nurembourg Ring when it happened! Gutted! Thanfully I had RAC European cover. Ive lost my phone but still have my number - so I aint got ur number. Im tempted to chop in my C2 for a turbo!

POST 10Original post

How big a bag? Sometimes mine has a rattle from the exhaust when revved beyond 2,500 shortly after starting - whether warm or cold. I've assumed it's something in the exhaust that cools and doesn't fit so well until it warms again. I guess from the mention of a flatbed that yours is a bit worse that that. [:'(]

POST 11Original post

That might be one of the exhaust heat shields coming loose. Only heard it when I was reversing at low revs. Really loud rattle from the rear.

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just got back......with my car. Oil pressure cuttout switch had a faulty connection. Fixed in no time and at no cost!!! Engineer said nothing to worry about. Thank heavens....[ ]

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Puzzled here - why would that cause your engine to sound like a 'bag of nails'?
