Door Straps

takes grenade out of packaging

Hi all

I am new to this forum

I have just collected my new P&J a vintage Porch 992 (or something) - its an N reg

removes pin

Love the car to bits, sounds wonderful in a can of beans sort of way but there seems to be a bit of a problem with the doors. Everytime I open them they seem to flap about too much. Is this normal?

grenade thrown

That should take the wind out of simonharrod911's sails !!

Explosion follows...

yes, your 992 has the age old flappy door trouble. I suggest you buy a size 4 button clamp and clean the spade nodes. that should do the trick. Or better still, fit a baby seat from 'mylife'soverandIshouldbuyapassat.com

happy flange adjusting

that sounds like a typical 993 problem, along with rattling horsbrass, overgrown facial hair and a uncanny desire to wear jesus sandals.

was the 992 a prototype?

yeh - couldnt afford a 993, even though the chap at the garage said I should always buy on condition and ignore the mileage

I think they fixed this on the 994.

Worried now:

Door straps? - both ok and working - check
Horsebrass? - none in possession
Facial hair? - clean shaven
Jesus sandals? -

Porch 992 ... doors ... flap about too much.

Flappy doors on your porch? Try this:



(I thought the jumper and wallpaper would be most appropriate too.)

Grenade fails to go off

Anyhoo, I'd rather have a beard than a ponytail....

I fail to see why this is a problem. what are you doing opening the doors anyway? the whole point of designing such a beautiful car is that you neither need nor wish ever to get out of it.
