  • Description Replaced rear bumper with GT3<br />Replaced all the ugly yellow light covers with clear ones<br />Had the body work cut and polished.<br />Looks GREAT!!! <br /><br />Hi, I bought my '98 996 C2 3.4l because I loved these cars. I had it for one week when I had to take it back to the car yard as it had a very bad oil smell. It had 86,000km on the dial (53,000mls). The car stayed in the workshop for more than a week. I was told to take out extended warranty to save myself expensive repair costs. I have driven it for more than 20,000km since, with no problem. I do get that rattling sound when I start it up from cold. However when it reaches normal operating temperature, the rattle disappears. I change the engine oil every 10km and the gear oil every 20km. I'm nervous the engine will fail. Is this rattling sound a signal that the worst will happen. I now have 123,000km (76,000 mls). Anyone out there with a rattling sound when they start the engine from cold.
