If you cant perform PPI yourself- look for one - Even after PPI things can pop up!. but its always better than nothing. I bought my 03 with 38k miles i put about 5k miles in past 7months. I DD. I paid 37k for it, had to fix minor things here and there, to cut story short, After driving it for a week, i found out front boots leaking - guy cleaned it pretty darn well- replaced that, clutch was slipping on hard pulls, replaced my clutch, spark plugs/coils - typical thing, car was misfiring - It cost me about 5k to fix everything - car runs pretty good now, knock on wood. I say, when buying used 996 Turbo, you never know what you getting your self into, even when the owner, car dealer says it runs good! ---
I suggest you to get the car fully warmed up, and do hard pull from 2nd gear up to red line, and 3rd gear up to red line. (2nd gear pop out problem) or misfiring (car needs spark plugs or coils)
or to check if the clutch is slipping) put the car on the lift. and look for leaks. check brakes, body panels for gaps. good luck
