Mark has made the same point I was trying to put across a couple days ago. Why disqualify someone simply for not having a specific document (the FSM) that likely doesn't include the information need

So we should eliminate protest bonds altogether? Or set a common "engine teardown" bond that ignores that shop rate on a Ferrarri is a bit higher than shop rate on a Celica? Bull. You wanna protest,

As long as we're using Porsche as an example, since they and other mfrs are becoming less and less inclined to give out what they consider to be "proprietary information", you might not get an answer

Dueling pistols anyone? Remember to play fairly. Twenty paces, turn and THEN fire. And if the other guy still wants to throw his hands up in the air, well, so much the better (target to aim at). ;^)

Sure. Though of the two options (1, being able to get the FSM or 2, convincing a dealer to help) I'll bet you'll have more luck with the dealer. And of course we have this very same issue for many o

So how do you propose to fix it? Require an out of print or unavailable shop manual? The PC has the ability to ask for other documentation as well. If the Dealer network doesn't have it, someone mus
