RUMOR:Porsche to announce fix for "Intermix Problem

[Dharn55]

RUMOR: After many years of denying any significant intermix problem with the M96 engines, Porsche may soon announce a final solution to the non-existent problem. Working in conjunction with Mobil Oil they will soon announce a new multi-purpose fluid that serves as either/both oil for lubrication and as a coolant in the cooling system. The use of this new fluid, in conjunction with a small pump to transfer excess fluid from the oil pan to the coolant expansion tank will prove once and for all that the problem never really existed.

Porsche may state “Who cares if the fluids intermix, they are all the same! The real problem is that owners have been using the wrong fluid all along!”

Can it be true?

I hadn't heard this one, but expected some important announcements this coming Wednesday ;)

Thats great news cause I've got a 99 996 hibernating in the garage intermixing away like nobody's business. Guess I'll just exchange all fluid for the new one. :rolleyes:

That's great news! Will it also magically fix cracks in the head?

That is not really a crack in your head. You just think it's a crack in your head. And if it is a crack you must of dropped your engine and cracked it.

Have a nice day and that is not oil in your coolant either..

You Americans are really annoying. :angry:

Oh. Sorry. In that case can you please send me another lovely brochure describing the engineering excellence that goes into every Porsche?
