Hi Guys
Hope everyone is well.
I posted a while back about my issues (engine light came on, took to Jaz Porsche, changed all 6 tappets - spotted BoreScore on No6 after only 4000 miles of ownership (and they checked for this exact issue at time of purchase) -now had car back 6 weeks - been DRINKING oil to the point of 4lts in 800miles - now engine lights on again and is misfiring again). Also been making a tap tap noise on turnover which I've been informed is not good and is related to said Scoring. Shame as bar drinking the oil I've done some 200mile runs and its driven like a dream and I LOVE it.
Im not selling the car so Options around fixing it would be awesome.
Its back at Jaz on Thursday as it may be the Spark Plugs but..... need Options.
Option 1: Rebuild: I believe it needs all 6 done, which means a rebuild, which everyone seems to say is around £8-9k (OUCH). I believe Hartech are the best but seems to be a few that can do it. I assume thats Option 1. Any cheaper folk in the business that are any good??
Whats Option 2....Second hand engine? New engine/trade mine in?
Etc etc. IS there an Option 3???
VERY keen to get thoughts and ideas as i plan to buy a run around for a few months while this gets sorted - sooner rather than later.
Cheers
Dan (and yes - im fkkking GUTTED )
