130k.
-Fuel pump died.
-Suspension is sagign and is rattly.
-Evap is leaking = no a/c.
-Leaking hose from fuel tank (can't fill more than 14 gallons (or moreso, shouldn't))
-Dead LED lights for shifter

I know it's a little o/t, but pics of your 944? Which since it's turbo should be a 951? Or is that a different model?

Excellent idea. I know that all cars are not the same, differences in
maintenance and owner care etc., but this would help the rest of us
evaluate our cars and be prepared for upcoming problems.

I hope a lot of people participate.
PS. please list year and model

Best regards, John

For RedTurbo850

Your correct, any 944 Turbo is a 951. 951 is the factory designation that was given to the car during construction. As far as photos i have a million or so. At one point last night i think i added a url in profile with pics of the car but i can post a few here if youd like

Im hoping people will post there mileage because it really does help us newer owners have a rough idea as to what to look for

Thanks guys
