I'm just toying with the idea (as i do every winter when the 993 is parked up and not being used) of buying a 911 that i can use all year and part of me fancies a change as well.

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.

RMS issues - I read somewhere that it doesn't, neither does the GT3.
As for engine failures, am sure some have failed for other reasons but dont think RMS is one of those reasons. Not even sure if the engines have an RMS.
Excellent description.
A RMS problem isn't the end of the world, it's not a sign of impending engine failure, it's a little leak that could drop a little oil on the clutch plate in rare cases.
LOL -@ Jay :lol:
Ok i'll come clean (oooer).
I'm just toying with the idea (as i do every winter when the 993 is parked up and not being used) of buying a 911 that i can use all year and part of me fancies a change as well.
So following that thought then it really needs to be something that is 4 wheel drive, therefore a TT or a 4S. I've seen a lovely 993 4S with a 3.8 but i think it would be a shame to use that all year round. So i started loking at 996 tt's and they really do represent good value at the moment - i'm seeing cars with less than 80 k km's for about 80000 chfs...........for example

or

So folks we have option a. keep the 993 and send it off to Ruf next year for a re-spray and one of their switchable sport exhausts and use it in summer with my vr6 for winter use.
Option b. sell both 993 and VR6 and buy a 996 tt for all round use.
Option c(linked to option a.). keep 993, get respray and when vr6 dies but a new Fiat 500 / Polo gti for winter use.
option d. if the 996 tt isnt really up to full on winter use then sell the 993 and Vr6 and buy an audi RS4/6.
Part of me thinks i should follow option a. but its a bit of a pain running 2 cars (3 including Mrs fuchs merc), but i dont know if im man enough to put any Porsche through a Swiss winter year after year.
Confused? thats my middle name.
Indecisive? thats my first name.
Sometimes having too many options is not a good thing.
Factor into the equasion if we do buy the apartment i talked about in my other post then my monthly disposable income suddenly increases rather nicely.
Dave - is the 996 tt 4x4 system lockable - i.e do you think it will cope with snow/slush/ice etc?
