So pleased to see Little Irish back on the roads and the smiles on your face! Well done to the team at Wrightune

The 997 GT2 is pure perfection. The Sport Classic behind it looks just looks fat compared to it.

These videos make me so damn happy. Pure enjoyment

65% is a low number alright the next test i would have done is to see if the maff sensor was under reporting the amount of air being drawn in as the maff sensor is the main sensor used in the ve calculation .What were the fuel trims showing?

Interesting video wish I had the money for the 992 GT3 .

Big push on Classic OPCs however, you and I know getting any work done on an older car at them costs £££££.

Dream car.

Take a car selling for around the hundred thousand mark and turn it into a car selling for around the one million one hundred thousand mark. Right.

Is that a builtbybasil knob? How did you get it attached so nicely into the boot?

I really love little Irish... this color, the rear spoiler, the wheels, all the little things you changed (love the 997 seats - had a 996.2 a while back now and the seats are definitely a downer on the 996s). To me it looks better than the 40th anniversary. Congrats to this nice Porsche, now lets hope it will be fine for some time again.

As an electronics engineer who fixes stuff for a living, there's nothing worse than an intermittent fault. 😅 They can be a complete ball ache.

Is this an advertisement ?

You can do better with the audio and video mate. 40k subscribers and you've been doing this for a while, you'd figure you'd have at least a gimbal....

Good advert for Wrightune! Still waiting on the Anniversary review!

Thanks so much for making this video, you’ve definitely added to the pool of troubleshooting knowledge for our cars.

Nice one Lee, glad it all appears to be sorted 🤞🏻

The 997 GT2 will scare the crap out of 99.5% of drivers!

I’m surprised the 996 hasn’t sold. Not a bad price for a main dealer.

It’s great that you have a shop willing to diagnose the problem instead of just throwing parts at it. Hopefully it fixed now

Your audio is very low

Impressed by your mechanics and their ability to explain their troubleshooting processes. As in aviation, and despite the occasional bills, competent Porsche mechanics are a part of the pleasure of Porsche ownership.

I said it was The purge valve

Poor video ... camera constantly shaking... noise... amateur, sry.

Handsome car little irish. Being nurtured the way a car ought to be.

I love that steering. But like you, I drive my P car a lot and drive it hard. I just can't get my head around removing the air bag...

Nice to see it back on the road Lee. These are great cars and in my opinion underrated. Keep up the good work. Cheers

I've always thought that those 997 seats look odd in a 996. After recently sitting in a 987 with sports seats, I get it. They are so much better than the 9x6 sports seats. So comfortable and much more supportive.

Great video - great explanation of their diagnostics!

Whatever’s going on under the bonnet, Little Irish is looking fantastic Lee!

Great job Wrightune, keep up the awesome work and customer service👌

This is awesome content. What a place wrightune is. They approached it properly and took the time and effort. The second guy knew his stuff in the (w)right way and that’s so refreshing. So many techs now can’t diagnose anything without a laptop and as said that doesn’t give the issue all the time, just a symptom. Understanding the car as a system and then the subsystems and having a mind callable of seeing the full picture and the interactions is what’s needed. Sounds like you chose wisely.

Really interesting and fingers crossed it’s fixed. Excellent garage and really good to see how these guys work 😀🤞

I had to replace the ICV (BMW Z3 M52 uses the same Bosch unit, and it costs 50 USD), the brake booster elbow (I used a solid rubber unit from a Ford F250 because those gray circlips fall out in the Porsche unit, and it was 3.00 USD), and the EVAP sensor (you can save a lot just buying the bare sensor and adding a length of hose, and it was 25 USD) just like you did. However, I also needed to create positive vacuum to reveal a leak from the intake manifold flap. You can cap it off with a rubber cap from a hardware store, and it was 2.50 USD. I wouldn't be surprised if you have the same leak, and it just hasn't been found. I really had to work to reveal it: first the TB gasket leaked, then the brake booster elbow, then the ICV, and finally, after replacing all of the aforementioned parts, I found the final leak: intake manifold flap joint.

Brilliant content as always glad you got it sorted 👍👍

@11:00 The price might have something to do with it still sitting there.................. 🤣

Really pleased. Intermittent faults are a bitch. Fingers crossed its sorted 🤞

Was that a little drive back from Moor Critchel I noticed

Nicely done, Lee, and kudos to the folks at Wrightune. I’ve owned my 01 996 C2 since new and since retiring only turned to doing my own maintenance on it this year. I had always wanted to get back to doing some of my own work and had forgotten how satisfying it feels to complete a given service job…even routine ones. That said, I felt I really went to school on diagnosis with the issues covered in this video.

Good to see Little Irish back on the road Lee. Hopefully you will have a period of problem free motoring over the coming months which will rebuild your confidence in the car.

Great to see you back in the car . I had an issue 20-30 years ago 911 2.7s went into Porsche chariots in St Albans presented with a massive bill at the end begrudgingly paid them got a few miles down the road same issue obviously went mad at them pointless.I then took the car to Autostrasse in coggeshall . Turned out a hairline crack in the airbox absolute gods .

Let’s hope she’s sorted! The passion for ‘your’ 911 shines through Lee. 👍👍👍

best news of the day. so pleased you got her diagnosed and cured! your mechanics seem like outstanding guys

Glad the issue is fixed. Does it feel better to drive now for having vacuum issues fixed/increased volumetric efficiency?

Happy for you ! We do get rather fond of our favourite four-wheeled companions 😎

Nothing worse than a Porsche that drives well but have some annoying unsolvable gremlins. Your story is a feel good story for all old Porsche lovers.

Fingers crossed Lee it’s sorted.. The smile is back on your face which is the main thing

Hopefully the problem is solved. From experience I know how frustrating it can be not finding the cause.

❤😂😢🎉🎉🎉😮😮😅😊😊😊😊😊😊😊 that’s a nice decor Porsche that damn thing is so fast and they will rip around any dirt track or any street track or on the street all right have a good day. Peace out.
