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.

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

POST 1Original post

There will be a little tramlining normally. This is because you have fat-ish tyres, light front end, quite hard suspension and geometery set up for turn in. However, it is easy for suspension geometery to be knocked out by potholes etc and it may be worth getting a full alignment check. This is over 100 quid, but well worth it, especially if you have uneven tyre wear. It will improve high speed stability and reduce understeer/oversteer, too. I'd recommend a Porsche main dealer or independent. Maybe G-Tech Motorsport (? place where UV went) or someone near you with a good suspension reputation. Cheers Dom

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Cheers Dom, I'll have to get it looked at me thinks.

POST 3Original post

Howdy, Steve. Buggers, aren't they? Don't worry, they all do this; even the old 928s suffered somink similar. My car is forever being knocked off kilter and (perhaps with the exception of the latest 996 variants) I've read about this several times over the years, particularly with the Turbos (but as Domster says, it's 'owt with gumball tyres really). One day we'll get the roads we deserve rather than the 4x4 courses we currently suffer and such things will be merely a rather irritating memory... If you feel yourself TLing, just accelerate into the adjoining county! Yyyyyyyeeeehaaargh!

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'll try that next time it happens then! Steve

POST 5Original post

Turbos also suffer bad tramlining if the shock's are shagged it can make them realy wayward.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Don't think the shocks are gone(no bounce)and the problem isn't that bad.

POST 7Original post

You think the UK is bad? you should try Hungary!

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Had the alignment done today at Camtune,like a different car!fantastic,car like its on rails now!! Tramlining seems to have disappeared to. Steve

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Is this a normal trait of cars of this type/ era.Should I get the suspension checked? Cheers Steve
