I wouldn't automatically assume PAG will do anything if you voluntarily pay $$$ to have your dealer strip down the heads. They have protocol to follow before executing a warranty claim, e.g., CEL, actual objective failure, not subjective wear patterns on cam lobes. Anyone holding a .1 GT3 after 10 year expires is gambling with a potentially big bill.

Thanks!

I ended up getting a 991.2 because I found myself worrying too much about the potential for engine failure down the road with the .1 GT3

Does the 911 Turbo S 991.1 have the same FF problem as the GT3?

No. But the 991.5 does.

918 shares the design. But except that, just 991.1 GT3 and RS.

Interesting. I didn’t know the 918 used the same finger follower design.
