That chart is great information.
I didn't see if it was based on the 3.4L or 3.6L
Does anyone know?

Hi guys, new in the Porsche world. I had a PPI done on a 2007 Carrera S and this is what came back. Apparently it has only 24k miles on it however the outside and some places inside it looks more like a 50-70k car. Does it look good ? Odd ? Thanks

FWIW and i'm not sure if its already been mentioned here but the window Porsche use is <150 hours.

So if the over rev happened <150 hours ago there is cause for concern >150 hours then they say the engine "should" be okay.

There is a maximum number of type 1's that can be recorded: 65535

Note: if the car has had a flash tune to raise the rev limit then it will keep recording these.

2nd poster the revs look okay although someone caused a type 2 in the last 19 hours, although because its a 997 the scale stretches so a type 2 in a 997 is not the same as a type 2 in a 996.

It shows Rev Range 1 '4015' and Rev Range 2 '3'.

I would really appreciate some light on this.

Thanks, Ben
The hours these occurred would be interesting to see also. However the numbers look fine.

Isn't that a 997? You'll perhaps get more information, some of it useful, on the 997 forum - but far less humour

Does the car have deviated stitching?

Yes its a 997. I did not know there is a forum for 997.
What do you mean by deviated stitching ?

You'll find out soon enough about the stitching...

Give you a hint, the colour 'deviates'

Just saw 2007 Carrera S, those number look fine
