Hello all.
New to the 996 Register though long time PCGB member. Just migrated across from the 944 community after selling a completed restoration project and buying a 996.2 3.6 C2 Cab in Seal Grey. I was lucky enough to have owned one of these when new (coupe not cab) so it’s a real step back in time for me! Car is in good shape bit needs the usual tidying and although complete s/history hasn’t had the IMS done (94k miles) even though it had a new Sachs clutch in 2018, so I guess it would be wise to get that done.
Couple of quick questions if I may (have had a nose round the forum and not seen any postings on these, so my apologies in advance if there are!):
1. Though no visible loss of coolant (no pools under the car or obvious leaks) it seems to go to around halfway between min-max after its had a decent drive and cooled down. Any thoughts?
2. The rear shelf is missing the two caps that cover the mounting holes for the hardtop. I’ve had a really good look on the usual spares sites and I’m struggling to find these - does anyone know the part number or who stocks them please?
Many thanks and all the best.
Chris
