Troubleshooting - Repair ManualsFor clarity, when referring to '924' it will be to all the models and common sense and context will be your guide to applicability.

The 924 Turbo, or 931, may be specifically discussed. 924S references the ultimate expression of the automobile and is the 1986 to 1988 924 with the Porsche 2.5 liter engine installed. As a practical matter this site will not delve into the 2.5 engine in detail as it is adequately treated in detail under the 944 series.
