I drove to L.A. this last Friday night 325 miles from door to door (San Jose start). It is the longest trip I have taken the 914 on to date although I commute about 85 miles per day!...She ran like a champ!...although my ears were bleeding from the wind noise and loud exhaust note for almost 6 hours of continued driving.The only issue I had was she wouldn't re-start right after I shut her down?...Head temp sensor I suspect but...all in all a great car and a great ride!

Nice Work, I did to eastern washington and back this weekend myself and had the exact same starting problem, waited ten mins and gave it some gas, then back on the road, and yeah, it felt like i had been at a loud ass concert when i finally stopped
How was your mileage I was at 29mpg which aint bad for taking the pass in third gear haha |
