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

When removing the front right wheel liner, there is a black plastic push rivot that goes through a hole in the liner and then into the body of the car. Visually located right behind the strut/spring. Where the push rivet goes into the body, there is a a hole in the sheet metal about an inch in diameter. Something was in that hole that the push river went into. Anyhow know the part? I tried various diagrams but must be picking the wrong ones. Thanks.

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Okay, I’ll go to dealership and report back.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks but that look like the part that goes through the panel, not the part that goes through the 1” whole in the body. Hard to tell. I went to Porsche, they were stumped. They were suppose to talk to a tech and get back to me, maybe tomorrow.

Abort the mission. Sorry, looking at pictures I noticed there might be a 2nd hole. Well I jacked up and there it was. There is still that 1” hole in the body. Surprised there is not a plug for it. I’ve seen it in other pictures so I guessing the hole is suppose to be open. Again, my apologies. It stinks when the eyes start to go.
