Just had a pre-purchase inspection done on 2005 Carrera coupe with tiptronic and around 36,000 miles. No service history was available. PPI done by local independent porsche guys. One item that came up in the PPI was the engine had a slight vibration at idle. No one at the shop could put a finger on exactly what was the cause of the vibration. Not the mounts. But enough of an issue to make you think twice. Only other big item that came up in the PPI was the rear brake pads were thin. Any thoughts from the group are appreciated.

Maybe the dealer can hook the car up to their piwis tester or maybe one of the dealer techs may have seen something similar. If you are still interested in buying the car possibly the seller will let you get another opinion.
