I know this is awful late, but does anyone have a 924 hood with bolts they can bring on Saturday? I don't care color or condition (too much) but cheap is important. |

So far so good. Was correct on the buzzing = Frequency Valve, fault was a fuel pump relay sticking closed after keyswitch off. Next up is the Recirc valve not seeming to function, making shifting &q ... |

I should be good to go as well. I've been driving the 931, so if all goes well no Yota. I have to admit I'm being optimistic though, there is still a large number of bugs to be shaken down... fighti ... |
