Read evidence and context

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.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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

Is there a colour code for OEM Brake Callipers, apart that is from those that paint them different colours. My C2 Cab has High Gloss Black Callipers with the Porsche logo on them. I have seen several other cars with Silver, and of course those Turbo jobbies with the Big Red ones, I was interested to know whether these Black ones differed from say the Silver ones ? Image Owned the car for 2 months now, absolutely fantastic .... makes my "Tweaked Audi TT" that it replaced seem a very distant memory ... esp when viewed in the rear view mirror.!

POST 2Original post

The silver ones were used on the C4 models and also I think on the Anniversary. The black ones on everything else bar turbo/C4S/Gt2/Gt3 which used red ones unless they were specified with PCCBS where they were painted yellow. Carrera GTs came with PCCBS as standard so always had yellow painted calipers.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks that clears things up for me .... so just an ordinary owner then ..... But my 2001/2002 Cab is Guards Red with Black, and absolutely immac having done only 18K, so that makes it out of the ordinary for me. Image

POST 4Original post

They are all fantastic cars! If you're thinking about changing your caliper colours, call the parts dept of your local Porsche Centre and ask them for the colour code you want they will be happy to provide you with it.
