Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

When changing my 996 C4 battery I noticed the battery terminal clamp bolts are a little bent. Does anyone know where replacements can be purchased from? Porsche don't sell them as separate parts, only a complete cable assembly including the bolts. They are M6 square headed bolts approx 30 mm long. I can't find anyone that stocks them. Euro Car Parts (source of picture) has them listed as unavailable [/i]

POST 2Original post

If you buy new ones they will also bend due to the angle of the clap when tightened. I assume ebay or Halfords may have them?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I assumed ebay or Halfords would have them too, but can't find them there :nooo:
