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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I got my 99 996 from a barn storage, where it sat not driven much in the past few years,It runs very well, but the ride sucks,I 'm sure a lot is due to the very old tires.New set is ordered for Aug 27 install. My shop tells me It needs struts all around,But the service records shows struts done at 83500, it now has 102k.So is it possible they've died, because of the long sit.? I would think not.. any suggestions? I've had oil change, belts and all checked, got Bg 44k in oil and gas, which helped smooth out the engine, new plugs going in soon. I drove it home 6 hours, at highway speeds,which seemed helpful.

POST 2Original post

Do the records say what brand or part number struts were installed ? Personally I would be surprised if 19k miles killed them . I would get the new tires installed and see how she feels . If the old tires exhibit any weird wear patterns an alignment might be a good idea . Also at 100k + your rubber suspension pieces may be in need of replacement . Just something to think about . You are not far from me so howdy neighbor

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

thanks, my thoughts too.Tires will be here Thursday, excited to see how she drives.
