Default 8th RMS just fitted

Hi folks,
It's been some time since I frequented this board.Any of my old buddies still about?

Just had my 8th RMS fitted at long last. Car is still running fine and about to clock 60k now.

This RMS fitted is a GT3 motorsport seal fitted backwards. According to my independent I should be finally free of any oil drips......dont hold your breath.

So, do I hold the world record for RMS replacements on a 996?

Cheers
Berny

Wow 8th RMS.

BTW...watched LFC beat South China this morning, so next is Portsmouth which should not be a problem. Team is looking good this year, so hopefully we can challenge for the prem title (oh yea...I am a Liverpool fan. Born in London raised in Banbury, but didn't want to support Arsenal or Aston Villa like the rest of the fam. Damn...I hope you are a scouser and not a .....).

Cheers mate.

I'm a true blue scoucer. Born in a house on Penny Lane. When you go to a match a Goodison you see Liverpudlians supporting a great team. When you go to Anfield you see everyone NOT from liverpool supporting Business venture.

Blue thru and thur

I'd blame it on poor British workmanship - they can't get the job right the first time, then have to keep on doing it several times to get the hang of it... helps keep them off the streets and in a job.

I have an MBA from the Uiversity of Liverpool, but I do not have 8 RMS...at least not yet. Hope it doesn't show up.
