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.

I've had a bit of an annoying rattle coming from my rear end. Under inspection I noticed my rear brake disc shields were loose so seeing as I couldn't work today due to a planned power outage I thought I'd tale the opportunity to get it sorted. Ordered a couple from Bolton OPC and had a nice back road drive over there 1st thing to pick them up. Also had a good browse round the showroom including having a good gander at the 991 GT2 RS they have in :worship:
State of play with the old ones:
Old vs New:
New fitted:
Mine rusted off! Well one of them disappeared, the other one corroded around a few bolt holes and began to scrape, so i removed it.
Currently running without... will probably try to fix when i get new rear discs on. Presumably not too expensive from OPC?
The bolts and washers that hold them on react due to disimilar metal reaction, can be sorted with penny washers.
But as Alex posted not daft money for new shiny things !
:lol: :lol:
I presume they are galvanised. I was tempted to paint them but can't see them being just pressed out steel. Will see how they oxidise and take action if necessary.
Both mine went because of this, I had a heap of washers lying about so just did that to fix. When I get round to new discs I'll get some new ones fitted.
You may notice in the videos.......I'd already put big washers on previously on some of the bolts.
But the metal itself felt as solid as a bent crisp packet so thought it was about time I replaced them.
