I pop over the tech section on most every visit. I see a lot of posts that have indeed be asked and answered 100 times. And some really poor thread titles, like "car won't start".

Like ANY gathering of (mostly) men there will be difference of opinions and experiences. From total newbies to wise guru - sages like John Walker. If John Walker posts, I always read it carefully and he has forgotten more than most of us know about 911 repair.

The search function on the forum software has always been pitiful.

The classic example is before Pelican, I would never have dreamed of doing the suspension refresh on my 911. Seeing other guys, regular non mechanic, dentists or office workers tackle replacing all the rubber bushing on a 911 made me try it. I will never forget that punch in the gut feeling of walking out to my garage and seeing my 911 on jack stands, with no suspension and thinking "Glen, what the F**k did you do!" and one part at a time getting it back to together better then it had ever been in my ownership was very satisfying. All thanks to lots of post on the tech section.
