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.

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

anyone know what option codes these are for: XLA X70 X7A X97 X98 ? Just I also have a boxster and havent used it for god knows how long, I bought it in 2000 as a second owner from a guy in Germany and never really checked much of its extra history, just now "i know years down the line" I am wondering what the X is?

POST 6Original post

Yep, that's it, or to be precise "Instrument dial painted/aluminium look finish" [ ]

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

ah cheers mate, btw richard, what is "boxster tailpipe" as an added extra? I thought they all were the same? Sorry to ask about this in a 996 forum, just some quick info really, like I say I hardly ever use it just when its really hot or if my 996 is not availble due to repair or service ect..

POST 8Original post

I guess they are something different to the "ornamental" standard tail pipes. Whatever they are, they were from the Exclusive range. Interestingly, the 986 tail pipes have 996 part numbers for some strange reason.

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

thanks for taking the time to look into this for me, cheers Richard.
