A 'very common' issue? I've not heard of it before.

If it's been to five garages for rectification, how would I as a buyer be convinced it can be fixed?

Feel for your predicament, but you need to find time to get it fixed or you'll never sell it.

I'm surprised that the garages mentioned couldn't find the problem, maybe Demort on here can offer some advice.

Been speaking to Demort.. over the last few months..

Just spoke to Ken again..he also suggested we buy any car..they valued the car @ 14500 -

Also convinced the misfire does not not happen on a full tank of fuel..so will get it filled up.. and check again..

Yes funny...lol.

Anyway...engines not broke....had this checked out by another indi
Anyway cars now sold..

I'm done with the 911 ownership...moving to a rs6 next...2 years old with warranty..
 
I'm sorry you had a bad experience with ownership, like the guy that's bought your car may have when the rms rips the engine to shreds.

There are so many great cars out there compared to lemons, so hopefully you'll be back in a 911 at some point. If you do, don't forget to get a ppi done :thumb:
 
Thanks guys..i have the b7 rs4 - and already bored of it..

moving out of London soon..getting tempted to sell it as i need to put a big deposit down..and stick to the 535 for a while..

would love a RS6 - feel maintenance will be allot...
