Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I needed to move my 911 about 3 feet in the garage today, so tried to roll it in neutral - and failed. My method was key in the ignition, shifter into N (parking brake was off) - but it wouldn't move. Is there a trick to doing this?

POST 2Original post

It should move in neutral. All I can think is how long has the car been parked up for and what was the weather like when you last put it away? It is possible for the parking brakes to get stuck to the disc, although usually after a long period, and more common in colder weather

POST 3Original post

has the lock actually disengaged ? I was on the ferry a few months ago and my 997.2 failed to engage drive or anything else inc neutral and the cable broke so the cog that locks it in park called the parking pawl i think was stuck. massive ball ache to recover but relatively simple to fix

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I don’t think the discs had stuck and nor had the parking brake come on. I did start it to move it - which was annoying.

MDL111 said: Need to go to the gym more Exit: I tried and failed miserably doing the same with my FF - just couldn’t move it That could be the case! I was a bit nervous about bending anything, so was trying to shift it via the wheels/tyres. I suspect the FF is a heavier car. First world problem - but just wondered if there was a trick I was missing.
