Some people prefer the wide rear of the C4S

He states it's the tensioners, but can that be quantified just by listening? Is it possible it could be a completely different issue? Only owned since 2020 and put on 2k miles, flipper or possibly scared of the "rattling"?

Curious on the replacement trans too, doesn't seem like many people have trans issues unless it was beat on.

Just a bad car "joke" about the picture, not your car. Glad Garret moved us on.

I also noticed that the oil level was below the bottom line. Either that was not a true cold start or the oil is actually underfilled. I do not understand these owners on BaT.. many of the cars are overfilled or underfilled.

I didn’t hear any rattle, so I doubt it was a cold start.

In the digital age, seems that any condition of car (well serviced, poorly serviced, one owner, multiple owners, flippers) can sell on BAT, PCAR, etc. Buyers just have to do their homework. Most don't and problems come to RL, and YuTube videos propagate from people complaining about a problem that happened to their 996 and they wonder why. Hello...
