Looking for a good Porsche Forum

Huz-Z · 08-27-2015, 07:37 AM

For my buddy who has a 2005 911; its a 997 variant I believe. The car is in great shape and running like a charm but lately, he has some dash lights. The battery didn't seem to be charging properly so it was replaced yet the dash lights remain. My buddy suspects the alternator, but as there is no dealer in town, he's largely on his own re a proper diagnosis of the problem.

I'm hoping that someone here can point him to a Porsche forum which, if its half as good as this one is, should provide some help and guidance.

Thanks in advance!

Not sure but Rennlist or 6speedonline seem to be the ones I've seen. Not sure of their helpfulness though.

Not sure what the production numbers are for the 997 are compared to the E85/86, but both of those forums get more activity than we do on here. Rennlist is the big one, but as a newbie it wouldn't hurt to crosspost.

I toyed with getting a P-Car a while back, and both of the forums mentioned are what I used for research.

ZPost has been dead lately.
