Well, Spring time and cars have to be pulled from storage...
Not all was well.
The 997RS had an A/C leak from an evaporator which is situated under the dash. Parts are ordered but will take two weeks to make it from Germany:
I brought the 991 and the 992 in for Spring inspection, seen here at the dealer. The 991 was fine, just needs new tires.
The 992 had a pair of recalls., one for airbags in the LWBs, and the other for rear glass that could pop out due to faulty sealing. This turned out to be a very difficult fix as the big wing leaves very little room to get in, and the glass got chipped.
Expect replacement glass in about ten days or so.
Each year there are a a few surprises....I have the same with my other cars, a Mercedes and Jeep in AZ that have different storage issues due to hear over the summer. Part of the game,
