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

...how many digits does it have? (he asks, sheepishly). I'm just asking because at the weekend I was driving down my very long private driveway (ahem), and I noticed that it suddenly said I was travelling at 04mph. Which I found odd as it felt like I was moving considerably faster than that...

POST 2Original post

My Boxster S speedo definately had 3. It once read 151..... on a track of course :grin: Would imagine the 996 is the same :?:

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hmm... it did seem a little odd. That said I looked at the display carefully (seriously, when I was stationary), and it looked like there might be room for a third digit, but that it could only display a number 1 if anything (if you see what I mean - there weren't enough lines to display any other number, e.g. a 2). Although it was dark and I could be mistaken...

POST 4Original post

Think it should have just displayed '4' not '04'... :dont know:

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

So it's fair to say that mine isn't working correctly... Not the biggest deal in the world of course! Surely a 996 Carrera can't display a '2' there?!

POST 8Original post

Nope. In Germany. (This was a very clear, empty stretch of derestricted autobahn and no fluffy bunnies or kittens were killed while doing it) I couldn't get the GPS speedo to begin with a 2 though. At this level there was a 5% discrepancy between the digital speedo and the recorded GPS speed.

POST 10Original post

Don't forget that a quick tweak to the binnacle reset will toggle mph to kph (AFAIK 2+ secs twist) So you could quite legally see 100 Ks or a tracked 300 Ks. Either way, the front digit needs to work! PS - when I read the the first line I thought you might have meant a FOURTH digit! "eh, does he think his Pork can break the speed of sound!"

POST 11Original post

Drat! Beaten to it by a less verbose Stuart. Basically the 2-digit display is FUBAR'd

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Good tip - I'll switch to kph and take it for a run to see what happens. And no, I realise they're fast, but not supersonic fast
