Known issues on the 1999 P30. One recall appears on the federal record for this year, covering replacement oil filters that do not seal properly and can let the engine lose its oil, which may then reach something hot enough to ignite. Two owner complaints are recorded, one on the service brakes and one on suspension. Lubrication specifications and oil pressure testing, brake hydraulic and lining service, and spring, shock and front end procedures with their alignment figures and torque values are all covered in this manual.
