Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Porsche engine problem

[Clyde Romero (clyderomerof4]

Wow 

I just came back from racing bikes this weekend at the track and that was the buzz from the P car folks 

It's looks as if the Nazis are still alive!

BMW did some shit like this years ago with there customers as well and paid the price dearly

You figure they would have learned!

Yeah, the IMS issue has been a known problem for a few years now on the M96 (996) and to a lesser extent M97 (997) engines for quite a while now. Porsche seriously mismanaged it, and has lost a lot of loyal customers from it. When I bought my 997 (yes, I'm now a P-bug owner) I made the dealership tear apart the engine and replace the IMS as a preventative measure before I bought it.

Have any of you out there been hearing of the Porsche engine problems ?

There was a full page article on it in Autoweek how Porsche has been ducking the issue for 10 yrs !

It's big shit among the dreaded P car guys

Hello - open letter -

 

*       WHAT - Looking for a virginal 1978 308 GTS

 

*       WHY - to take detail pictures of the blacked out paint details &
paint my car correctly

o   My 308 is all apart for painting now. 

o   Was disassembled and painted two times before. 

o   Oh boy - what's really correct?

 

*       WHERE - within 100 miles of Thousand Oaks, CA  (Los Angeles area)

 

*       COLOR - Rossa Corsa would be nice but I'll be happy with any
unmolested '78 308 GTS.

 

*       HOW SOON? - asap

 

Thanks

 

DOUG
