Hi all,
Had my c4s now a couple of weeks. The auto oil reader has consistently been on the second level. Car has service by supplying dealer when i bought it. I've done about 700 miles since collecting it.
Yesterday when i went to start it the bottom level was flashing. I read the handbook and duly added about third of a litre of oil as a starting point.
When out for a drive at around 50mph and above the oil pressure stayed on 5, however when coasting approaching lights etc it dropped to about 3.5. is that normal?
when i got back home after about 25 mile run i left the car about half an hour and went to check the auto oil reading again. The bottom section was flashing once again. Put in another 500ml and after leaving this for 10 mins or so it now reads on level 2.
is all that about right?
I am thought thinking about taking it into a good indi (suggestions please) I'm just north of Brighton, and getting a really good look over, and after reading lots of worrying reports i may well get a borescope done. Not because i suspect any things wrong but I'd just like to be reassured. After reading loads on here I'm fully aware that this would have been better done before buying not after
:dont know:
It little things that I'd like to sort. It's done 69k and at 11 years old i'm aware that it won't be as tight as a new car but there are a couple of little rattle etc that if possible i'd like to try and do something about. Having never had a 911 before I'm not really sure what to compare it to, what acceptable and expectable for a car of its age and mileage. Guess I'm after a more experienced eye to tell me all is ok
