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.

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

  • 911uk: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Generation: 20261026T222516Z · outcome-qualification-6. Deterministic extraction; no AI model inference. How we use sources

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Those who followed my exploits with the broken caliper bolt will now know I decided to swap out the hub. Replacement ordered from Ebay and it turns up but I can detect slight play in the bearing compared to the one I took off. Anybody point me in the direction of a decent guide to swapping out the bearing on a C2. I decided to change out the coffin arm as it looks the original on the car with no details of change in the history and you guessed it the eccentric bolt was siezed into the inner sleeve of the bush so spent a pleasant afternoon cutting it out without touching the subframe. Oh the joys of 20 year old 996's
