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.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Evening. I need both rads replacing which I know is a common problem! I have priced them up on design911 and can save loads if I opt for OEM. Pros and cons? Bearing in mind the lack of longevity in the originals I can't see they can be any worse?? :?:

POST 2Original post

If you do a google search on the Porsche part numbers you'll find a UK supplier who can get you the same part that Porsche use manufactured by BEHR. There are cheaper alternatives so you will have a choice of 3, two the same and one third party. I went for Behr as I made such a big saving on Porshe supplied. Make sure you get the right part numbers though. :thumbs:

POST 3Original post
