Hello all,
Well, last week I picked up my first Porsche. 2004 Carrera 4S Coupe. Very happy.
Drove it home (Alberta) from Ottawa last 2 days. Soooo much fun driving across the country in this car. Worked flawlessly until my oil pressure gauge dropped to zero and I almost had a heart attack. After calling the dealer and reading up on this site (on my iPhone) while parked in a corn field...I determined it was the oil pressure sensor and continued home.
Dealer said since it's a CPO they would replace the switch. Need to get an out of province inspection tomorrow and hopefully it will be smooth sailing.
Notice some shaking at high speeds...so maybe the alignment is out? Hope it's not a wheel bearing.
Anyway, just wanted to pop in and say hi...and thank you all for the awesome info on this site.
Cheers,
sean

Welcome and congrats! If you don't mind, previous history, miles and approx price? just trying to gauge, since a few other threads here have some C4's for sale and other members looking to buy. thanks.
