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.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Reported cause

Fixing this problem is straight forward; you either have to drill and pin the fittings before they start to leak, or replace them with welded versions to prevent any chance of leaks.

The only major concern on these cars is that Porsche used glued in water hose connections, which are well known to come loose and leak.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Longtime Pelican, first time 996/997/991 area poster... I am looking at a 2007 997 manual Turbo tomorrow, 27,000 kms. I believe IMS/RMS are not issues with this case but not sure about d-chunk or other problem areas. I will be getting a ppi...anyone help feed my paranoia/help with pointing out areas to check specifically? Thanks

POST 2Original post

Quotes source post: 9449636

The Turbo cars all carry the Mezger engine, which is completely bullet proof and entirely different than the M96/97 engine found in the normally aspirated cars. The only major concern on these cars is that Porsche used glued in water hose connections, which are well known to come loose and leak. A lot of tracks will not let cars with the factory fittings out due to problems with them dumping their coolant all over the place. Fixing this problem is straight forward; you either have to drill and pin the fittings before they start to leak, or replace them with welded versions to prevent any chance of leaks. The downside is either of these options requires removing the engine to do this.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks. Just to close this out, did a ppi and bought a 2007 TT manual black on black. 29000 kms.

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