Yikes ... sounds like one of the members here.

FWIW, Auto Haus went out of business last year. Could've been headed to New Country or maybe the Bavarian Rocket Scientists.

Or, he could have run out of gas...or he had a flat tire, or it was a case of "NOW HER'S".

It was heading North away from Bavarian ... Probably New Co then . Mine will be there Tuesday for a new water pump.

Hopefully it was something minor and not the dreaded HER(s) condition. Thats more costly than the IMS+AOS+RMS failures combined

On another note, I look forward to catching up with you guys at the next C&C

He heard that loose pebble he dragged in on the floor rattling and decided to shut it down and flat bed it to the nearest mechanic.

When in doubt, assume it's something catastrophic.

Hey, I think I just found our new 996 Forum motto.

Yes, that's why I find it funny that some of those same worried peeps have the best stereos. You know they can never turn it on as they need to be able to hear every little nuance of sound aside from their radio. Ironic...

As my old doc used to love to say "just saw a patient for the tenth time, guess he doesn't believe me when I tell him that other than an internet infection he is just fine, he'll be back next month with a new list of symptoms he read about on line".

Loved that old doc.
