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.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

What is the possibility to put a 1999 engine into a 2001 car? Here is the info...... The 2001 VIN is WPOAA29911s621767. Attached is the serial of the 2001 bad engine. Also attached is a picture of the details of the 1999 engine. Has anybody done this?

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Pictures are attached

POST 3Original post

Check over on Rennlist for this. It should be a direct swap since they are 996.1 engines. Nothing changed much with the engine between 1999 & 2001. Major PITA going from 996.2 to 996.1. Or the other way around.

POST 4Original post

Does the 99 engine have e-throttle? If not-you will have to swap over the intake from the later engine.

POST 5Original post

It is more than just egas, the 1999 engine used a 5.2.2 DME, the 2001 car carries a 7.2 DME.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
