Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that contain suggestions: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Easy done .Ask for a pad thickness , they start new at 18 mill including the 6 mill backing plate.For 8k miles not tracked I would expect no more than 1-2 mill gone with hard road use.if more than that , its been tracked.You will see by the front and rear scoops with gravel rash , even if PPFd from new it will still mark it.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

After 5 years of happy 987 Boxster Spyder ownership, have just sold her and put a deposit down on a yellow 987 GT4 just in at OPC Bolton. Does anyone know this particular car by any chance, any info very welcome ? Also, it comes with PCCBs which I’m looking forward to but can anyone advise what checks I should make sure are done and documentation like proof of disc thickness I should ask for?

Yep that’s the one. I’ll get the thickness reported, thanks. One q, what if it’s say 12mm do I not go ahead ?
