Whatever, drive it whilst the weather is mild ! You've got some catching up to do to make up for missed miles

Ah, that makes sense. Might also account for the stumbling in on-off throttle situations in heavy traffic. I'll take a look.
And as for your other suggestion,m you're right!
Thanks for all your help and support!!!

Well, after having what I believed to be cam chain tensioner failure, and then replacing the tensioners with pressure-fed tensioners, and having them 'fail', we've discovered the mystery noise was nothing to do with the tensioners – it's a broken valve spring (inlet on #3)!!!
Don't ya just love cars?

What a pain that is as a lot has to come off the engine.
Good luck with it.

Not too bad - compressed air into cylinder. Can be done with engine in the car if needs be, but will drop engine to give better access, though. Shame Bob's not around to comment.

Indeed, and have seen the compressed air trick done but not on a 911.

Bummer - but on the plus side at least you've found the problem - it'll be great when it's fixed
