Everything else checks out ok so seems overkill to have to replace the whole unit.

Suggestion

But cross reference with OPC prices as DVB seem to make their prices up starting at the cost for a new part from a main dealer then using some strange algorithm what they'll offer it for.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all, Just wondering if there is a decent breaker in uk I can source the internal harness for a headlight unit, 2016 panamera. Took the back off the existing one and there are multiple failures of the wiring insulation. Everything else checks out ok so seems overkill to have to replace the whole unit. Only I can’t source just the wiring locally (UAE). Any recommendations would be helpful, thanks

Their older parts have now been passed to another specialist but they might be able to help you ...
