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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My local Porsche dealer explained that my PCM was not allowing bluetooth connection to my phone or iPhone because the phone module was broken. They kindly offered to repair for $1400. I'm thinking there might be cheaper route... anyone know of otters who can do such a repair? Thanks, Dave 2011 Boxster Spyder
