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.

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.

Not sure about the part numbers but I have a 3.4 and retro fitted a used PSE sytem which fitted fine.

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

I have a pair of replacement back boxes which I brought some months ago for my 1999 3.4 when I realised that the current ones were not much longer for this world, but I'm getting a bit jittery as to whether I've got the correct parts. They seem to be numbered 996/23 996.111.132.83 17/09/03 Can anyone reassure me that I don't have a pair of 3.6 ones?

POST 2Original post

Hi, Not sure about the part numbers but I have a 3.4 and retro fitted a used PSE sytem which fitted fine. I didn't know it was from a 3.6 at the time and later discovered it when I was told by a mechanic. Apparently it fits fine but the tail pipes stick out more as, I would assume, the 3.6's rear bumper is deeper.

POST 3Original post

Hi, Both back boxes should have part numbers of the form 996.111.xxx.xxx Are you sure the one you think is numbered 996.111.132.83 isn't actually 996.111.132. 63 ? I can't find any reference to a back box with a part number ending with .83 996.111.132.63 is the near side standard back box for the C4S model....

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
