I would! It would go right next to the PCA sticker. You might want to print a second sticker that says, "Unless the solenoid is not working"

Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?
Hmmm... There is an asshat Mustang driver around the corner with an illegal exhaust that likes to rip up and down the street late at night (but not regularly enough that the cops have caught them yet). If you get them made with "that shit ain't comin' off" glue, I might be interested in a couple...

I was also considering "My other car is a flatbed" for the paranoid 996 crowd...
Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.

LMFAO I knew a guy with a CL55 AMG that had a very similar sticker on his car. I think it said something like "Follow Me to the Tow Truck".

Finally finished my FEAL coil over installation. What a difference!

Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?
Swapped the starter out on Sunday. The 996 has had a crank delay issue for the past month or two (several second delay between twisting the key and the starter engaging). I was hoping it was the starter and not the immobilizer acting up.
Good news! Crank delay is gone, and the new Bosch unit is so much better than the remanufactured Bosch I installed the last time around. Hoping to be done with starters for the next couple of years.
The only negative fallout: The car threw a P0507 after about half an hour of driving, and it's also idling high. I'll pull the throttle body back off next weekend and check the plenum couplers to find the vacuum leak I introduced...
Bonus: The plastic coolant coupler next to the alternator is still intact despite years of my ham-fisted wrenching. I really ought to replace that before I break it.

The Rover had the dignity to throw a battery warning in in the driveway, instead of the drop off line at the kids school. Pulled it out of storage. Smiles for days...
Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?
Battery warning? That sounds positively civilized! The battery warning in every car I've owned to date is audible-only: you twist the key and hear click-click-click-click-click...

Newer cars give you the advance warning so you can start saving up for the trip to the dealership

Can't go to the dealership - my religion prohibits sodomy.
