  1. Hi guys thanks for the reply,dropping the car off to have a look to see if swapping banks works,last night I started the car bit of smoke and after 10 second went away,went to the shop and as I was doing about 45mpg 3rd or 4th gear I had a massive puff of white smoke,now I can't say if it was out of both exhausts or one,but it was bad enough to fill a single lane bypass,this leads me to a bad air oil separator,maybe this could be the problem as well. I don't tno how the garage check on these cars for a faulty aos. I'll update today when they have looked over the car. Thanks.
  2. I'm hoping its this simple,my friend who Remaps cars says it looks like a vacuum leak by looking at my fuel timing.. Hope it's just a simple solution,I might just get the garage to change the part from 1 bank to the other bank to eliminate the problem,iv seen the parts are only around £100 each so I'd get them both changed on bank 2 if that is the problem :) thanks for the advise so far guys I'll update tomorrow as soon as they have finished. Thanks Ljonesy90!
  3. Thanks very much for this thread I can show this to the Porsche specialist to save me time and money,does anyone no if it is a faulty solenoid or actuator has the engine got to be dropped on the 996. Thanks
  4. Can anyone else chime in and comment on this problem I have,maybe someone else have had these symptoms before thanks.
  5. Hi thanks for the reply car is booked in for Friday so we shall see how it goes :),I'm just hoping the cam chain hasn't slipped and it's something like the actuator in bank 2,as I can't see 1 bad plug or coil causing multiple misfire but you never no hey this is a bloody Porsche. I'll update more when I go to Porsche, I did also scan the car with my snap on tool and cleared then but they still come back with the same codes so I don't think they will be any different on the porsche system. Thanks guys Ljones90
