HAZ, have you thought about selling the car and buying a different one?

does Norway offer mechanical insurance when you buy regular auto insurance?
I think someone said Australia covers mechanical repairs when you insure a vehicle.

Thank you tonycarreon.

Insurancecompany covers engine/ tranny on cars up to 8 years.

I have never heard of this in Oz & I've been insuring multiple cars for over 30 years......

Will be headed back to SS Performance Hovedside | SS Performance
in 3,5 hrs to reset tranny and perform the last oilchange + filter. 100 miles each way. Stay tuned for more updates. Will the pan and oilfilter be clear of metal particles? I have a good feeling. And hey! I get to drive 200 miles in my beloved Box today, yay

Just came back from my 10000th. oilchange in 4 week at SSP, they also tried to fix the tranny but it's still not 100% right.. Probably needs a tranny flush. Will be doing that in october.

Anyhow... who woulda thunk this was possible in Norway in september



The started emptying the oil that they put in a couple of days ago.. this was supposed to gather all of the metal partciles that might still be in the engine





So far so good





So I now know I'm in the clear that there are no more metal particles inside of the engine. The lid that sorrounds the oil filter was also checked for metal particles..



Checking connectors for tranny. They were all fine.



They also did a full scan of the car and cleared some old error codes (MAF.. has been replaced last year)

Here is a 996 owner, not as lucky as me.. a full rebuild needed. Complete engine:
