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

after 12 months of wait i am hoping to get the car back next weekend ! after a few hiccups with the engineering firm they are confident it will be done ! will hopefully post a pic of the car with the engine in it rather than under it !

POST 2Original post

Blimey! That's taken a while. Last time we heard from you was when you bought the timing tools earlier this year. I didn't realise it had been so long in progress until I looked back at your previous posts. Perhaps you could do us a summary of the work done and the rough costs, as we always find this stuff interesting.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

it has been a while ! even the kids are laughing at me now! when the wife is not looking i will dig out the receipts for the parts and total it all up, i really didn't want to get a replacement engine as i wanted to keep it all matching, in hindsight it has been the right decision but an expensive one, when she comes back i will have the piece of mind that everything is sorted . will keep you posted .

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

nearing the end of the rebuild and another phone call starting with 'we need another part' the part in question being the camshaft solenoid.. mine had seized and a new one required.. once again the chaps at porsche colchester sorted one quickly helpfully and were by far the best price compared to some other so called porsche specialists ( the ones that picked the phone up that is ) awaiting the next call... hopefully to say its ready !
