Any Members Within Driving Distance To The Hudson Valley Area Of New York? Need Help
I am located in Monroe, NY 10950 by Woodbury Commons. I could sure use someone with 928 experience. This is getting deep...Any visiting help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Anthony Fontana

Hey Bilal,
Thanks for the quick response.
I can't get the car started. Bought it on Mother's Day and had it towed home as I bought it in non running condition. Got it started, ran like crap, never got a chance to drive it as of yet due to it's issues. It's been a battle ever since.

Wow, I used to live about 10 miles from WC! There was a guy in Hairyman named Bill Haupt who ran a shop called Hauptstrasse Motors on Maple St. I believe he is now working for Audi in NJ, but I haven't spoken with him in about 7 years. He was a good 928 mechanic and may still do sideline work? You might drive by and see if the shop is still there and if there are any recent phone numbers.

Harriman, lol I know Bill. He doesn't do any side work anymore. He now leases his shop to a friend of mine that knows Porsche's to a degree but is really a BMW specialist. I thought Bill was an Audi specialist?

I called and they are not in business any longer. I have no service history on this car and wish I did. I know the car was sold by PAR Porsche in New Rochelle to someone in the Bronx (Riverdale), I spoke to him and then he sold it to the person I bought it from in Elmont, Queens...

I got the car running today. Fixed the three wires going to the Crank Position Sensor on the HARNESS side and replaced the "Test" relay and she fired right up. I would still welcome someone with 928 experience to help me fine tune the car. I can keep the Pizza/BBQ & liquid flowing all day!

Nice job sorting out the triage!
And..hope the improv get together works out, pizza and such and the resulting advice of multiple noggins' will get you pretty far down the road!
