Sensor replaced.

is that before/after?

If it blows up...off to Jake it goes!

Yesterday it got even weirder. After a 60 mile drive i slowed to go thru a tool booth and suddenly got the oil warning message and needle dropped to zero. Came back few seconds later. Then few minutes later i glanced at dash and see the needle at zero but got no warning message at all. Fixed itself ...

This time I didn’t have a WTF moment, knew it was nothing.

Six weeks since it 1st happened and last night it happened 2x inside of 2 minutes, traveling 90mph and applied brakes, warning message and gauge dropped to zero. Reversed itself immediately upon accelerating. Guess its time to change the sensor.

As for the cap, i recently got the strap replaced after going forever without one, and yes in NJ its funny to watch the attendant try to figure out what to do with the cap.

Now that my 996 has become a 130 mile per day daily driver i'm filling up every other day at a Shell in NJ. Never had any issue requiring upside down handle though on occasion it will "auto-stop" the fill at 3/4 vs full, but this is maybe 1 in 10 fill-ups.

that silver 993 is a turbo!

Best part is getting to see the great cars that are always in my indy’s lot.
