Default Over rev 997.2 carrera S


Hi,

I am totally new to this forum so if I inserted this thread to a wrong from, I apologize.

I want to buy a pre-owned Porsche Carrera S (997.2), year 2009, 35kkm. I got from the seller the attached report from Porsche. It is in German but I hope this does not matter :-)

Could you please advise me if the over rev report is fine or not?

Thanks,
Ivo

Thanks. Over rev in #1 has happened quite recently. Is this fine as well?

Yes, range 1 over revs don't really matter.

Check out 911virgin's website - they have a good explanation on this. http://www.911virgin.com/porsche/rev-range-information/

Range
1 and 2 on the 997.2 cars are just at or below the rev limiter so nothing to worry about!
