I gave her a full service and changed the CD player for something a little more modern.

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.

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

  • 911uk: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello all After some advice please.. I know a few of you have been following the recommissioning of my 996 Turbo on my thread here: S Thread '996 Turbo Project! *** 10 years later update! *Update 3rd May*' 11 Jun 2014 Hi guys After moving on from my Single 6 Supra i brought my dream car, a 996 Turbo with 46,000M in fantastic condition. Got a few pictures for you lot and this will serve as an ongoing history of the car. Anyway here she is: I gave her a full service and changed the CD player for something a little more modern. Next up was the brakes, the lacquer was starting to peel of the calipers and looked a bit messy, so i set to work. I sent away the calipers and heres what came... Slutters Replies: 122 Forum: Porsche 911 996 (1997-2005) Well despite all the work i am looking to sell it or PX. The reason being i have done 2 track evenings in the car now but just cannot 'gel' with the tip box. On the road it is fantastic and exactly the right choice to my mind. So, lets not mess around, i am looking for a 996 turbo or 997 turbo but in manual. Open to PX or selling it but i need to work out where i should be pricing it and as a few of you watch the market a lot closer than me i figured i would ask. Details: 2002 996 Turbo Tip 51k miles Previous cat D I would say its potentially one of the best 'sorted' 996 turbos available, no rusty bolts/nuts. No seized up turbos or actuators. No risk of coolant fittings popping out. All new suspension with a genuine proper upgraded shocks. In the last 2 months it has had: £12,500 spent on it (Just in parts) Full major service, drive belt, spark plugs, air filer, oil filter, water pump, cabin filter All coolant lines welded (All 8..) along with coolant pipes replaced where needed All new seals on rebuild along with vac chamber. Tip gearbox service, new filter and oil Both turbos replaced with all new lines and check valves 2 new wheel bearings at the front Every single suspension part replaced. All top arms at the back, all cofins front and back along with new bolts. Brand new Ohlins road and track adjustable suspension. Full alignment to OE specs by Precision Porsche Only issues left with the car is the AC is not great. I was thinking around £32-33? To reflect the AC and the Cat D? Few pics: Thanks

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Have considered a manual swap at 10k ish... but i think it will make it harder to sell in the long run.

POST 3Original post

I don't know about the value of the car but probably worth selling the wheels separately? (if you still have the original set)

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 2738956

Thanks, i don't unfortunately, in an ideal world i would PX mine against a manual and give them the choice of wheels.

POST 6Original post

It’s a tough one to value on one hand the money spent on parts makes it a great buy with the cat D taking a bit of the gloss off. The price point you have suggested seems a fair price tbh

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 2738959

Thanks, quite hard to price really looked at a lot of the cars for sale which have been 'serviced' but don't mention all the common turbo issues.

POST 8Original post

If I was buying a Cat D car I would want plenty of info on the damage and how it was repaired, it may be worth having a report done on the repair to mitigate the inevitable questions.

POST 9Original post

I also have the turbo with Tiptronic box and I just couldn’t got on with the buttons. I converted it to paddle shift, this made a huge difference and so much more enjoyable to drive. I was surprised it made so much difference but it did. The conversion is easy enough to do - see threads on here on how to do it. I also got the wheel recovered, removing the old buttons. Worth trying before you go down the route of swapping to a manual
