  1. There is a complete set for sale on rennlist.com. go to the 911 forum.
  2. Are you going to update the deflector? I have an 05 with the crummy one and am thinking of doing so.
  3. Porsche will probably say its within guidelines but to me that sounds a bit much. I bought my CPO'd 997 with 2500 miles (oil changed before I took delivery on it) and now have 5500. My oil level gauge shows no change.
  4. Won't disconnecting the battery give you a check engine fault?
  5. Hi Jonesy, I did the first oil change at about 1,200 miles, then again at 7,500. I'll do it every year, just before winter storage, or at 7,500 miles. The oil just does not last 20,000 miles. Maybe 10-12,000 tops. I think the dealership and Porsche say the 20,000 miles to make the car "appear" to have a lower yearly maintenance cost, to compete with other marque brands in the marketplace. An oil change is very cheap insurance. I don't think you need to change the oil every 3-5,000 miles...that's overkill, wasteful, and test have shown to actually increase wear & tear. I have changed mine after first 1000 miles then at 6000 miles (one Year) and again next week at 9000 miles after 4 track days this year. In that fancy rag that Porsche mails me they touted the long oil change intervals as part of their "green" commitment. I have never heard that removing contaminents from the lubricating system is bad for an engine.
  6. I dyno'd my sc before and after installing a fabspeed pipe and gained 14 hp.
  7. Have you owned the car since new? Is this a Porsche dealer? Although you say it is a "2" It could have been delivered new less than 4 years ago and could have some warranty left. If you bought it used you should find out from the Porsche dealer the service history on the car. Porsche has had many problems with leaking rear main seals and have in fact changed the the design of the seal because of that. And if the leaky seal contaminated the clutch you could have more problems.
  8. I live in central Jersey and bought my 987s new in White Plains NY for 47k this past March. I had a warranty issue about the time the break-in period was up so I had the oil changed and the local dealer took care of both with no problem.
