What's your favourite 991.2 Carrera?
Note for reference: car weight and power data are hard to pin down with absolute certainty. For consistency, we use the same source for all our guides. We hope the data we use is right more often than it’s wrong. Our advice is to treat it as relative rather than definitive.The 991.2 signalled the end of the 9A1 engine. The new car had a twin-turbo 9A2 unit that’s often described as being more ‘linear’ in its power delivery.
A recall was issued for the expansion tank which could generate bogus low coolant/overheating warnings, and there was another for a fuel system bolt that could corrode. Some water pumps were replaced early on in their lives by more robust items after they had shown leakage mainly on cars from late 2017 to early 2018. There have been faulty thermostats too.
Any uneven tyre wear at the back of the car needed investigating. Wheel alignments on some new cars with fewer than 1,000 miles on the clock were found to be outside factory tolerances. Carbon ceramic brake discs were an expensive option, but they did last a long time and they didn’t suffer from fracturing between the drilled holes. That could be an issue on steel discs, as could squealing. Tyres are supposed to be N-rated for these cars.
You might hear some squeaks and rattles from your 991.2 on bad roads. Windscreen wipers sometimes came on when the car hit a bump, and there have been stories of windscreen seals ‘melting’. Some 991.2s with the electro-hydraulic front axle lift mechanism have had to have their pumps replaced under warranty.There weren’t wholesale cabin changes with the 991.2 update. The steering wheel was new, with better grip pieces and aluminium inserts. The PCM with online navigation module was new, too.
Rattles could also develop in the door cards, from the sunshade when it was in the open position, and from the dash area around the tweeter units, part of the Bose audio system which was not universally admired for the smoothness of its sound. The Burmester alternative seems to have received more positivity among owners.
They’re not perfect, mind. Rattles and squeaks of various kinds do happen. Quite a few of the random events in a 991.2 seem to occur as a result of bumps in the road. You wonder whether there might have been difficulties maintaining the quality of the supply of some outside components. Even so, and even among those who have had problems, the respect for the 991.2’s abilities is very high.
