According to some folks on RL, the only problem with the 991.2 is the sound. And, apparently, it's a persistent one.

Otherwise, to this tone-deaf person the 991.2 is probably just as reliable (or not reliable depending on your perspective) as a 991.1

I had a pdk transmission fault at sub 200 miles. Made a post about it. They updated the software and I haven’t had any issues since. 5k miles since last February.

About 18 months, 15,475 miles by MY CAR app, many summer Track days and 2 winter SnowCross days at Road America with zero problems.
I think one recall for expansion tank taken care of when in for oil chnage.
The thing is a tank!-Richard

Reliability looks promising.

lag and weight are problems in my eyes.

My 991.2 Base Carrera is a little bit more than one (1) year old and it has almost 10.000 kilometers. Problems ?

A lot of rattles even when the car was new. I had to take it to the dealer and they changed the rear seat belts because they were making a lot of noise.... maybe something was loose.

I'm currently discussing with my dealer about a noise (bang) that shouldn't be there.


Dealer is telling me that the noise is coming from a valve in the AC unit and that new cars also have the same noise. If you ask me, this a BS explanation. I've never heard a car with this kind of noise being explained as a normal thing.

Beside that..... love the car. Sound not an issue for me.

My car does have some little rattles. I only care about the cowl shake I get now and then, makes the window knock. Hasn't changed since i bought the car and put 12.5K on it. But I use my car hard and it only becomes any kind of annoying if I'm driving on really crap pavement.

6 months, 2,300 miles. No issues. Just a couple personal maintenance and preference items:

- Wheel alignment done at 1,000 miles, found to be not in factory spec.

- Buffeting with both windows down. Solved with DIY rubber spoilers.

- Harsh and poor clarity Bose tweeters. Solved with aftermarket tweeters.

Buffeting with both windows down is odd. What’s the rubber spoiler mod you did?
