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.

Suspected cause
Guess the potential issue is the date slipping as that has happened generally in recent months, but I'd be optimistic if I were you.
Leading evidence: 'date slipping as' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'date slipping as' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace on the my23 992' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

I suspect the German unions might well raise issue with that plan.

it normally is, but what has changed on the MY23 992 to need retooling?

Suggestion
You can't just run a factory 24/7 without stopping for big maintenance items - these are usually scheduled in the summer.

Besides the planned maintenance window, running short teams isn't going to end well
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 have a completion date for a C2 992 on 25/08/22. There is a lot of discussion about the factory closure for the summer break in August. Would no cars be built in that period!, it is a strange decision as there is such a backlog, could Porsche not stagger the summer break so that some are off in July and some in August so that production continues. It doesnt make economical sense either. Is it definitely happening and if so for what dates and would our completion dates will be delayed as a result? Thanks
German workers councils take some time and negotiating with... and with a coming recession (and potential for shortages of power in the winter) I imagine the workers want a lot of backlog.
You can't just run a factory 24/7 without stopping for big maintenance items - these are usually scheduled in the summer.
Also this is how Porsche and Similar implement model year updates - change tooling / processes etc - again, not an overnight process.
If the completion date is 25 Aug then sounds like some forms of production are happening, even if they're retooling elsewhere.
And if you've been told something as precise as 25 Aug which is only a few weeks away then it's probably accurate as closure / retooling would have been factored in.
Guess the potential issue is the date slipping as that has happened generally in recent months, but I'd be optimistic if I were you.
We were at the Porsche Museum on Friday and saw some bodies going across the bridge between two factory buildings. I asked if the factory was still open as we tried to book a tour before we left the UK and couldn't as the Porsche website advised the factory was closed from the 18/7.
The response was that the factory was still operating at reduced capacity. It wasn't clear if that was continuing throughout the summer break. Perhaps they're trying to catch up on the backlog?
The simple answer is- Retooling, its the same every year for as many years as i can remember.
Don't take the system as gospel, in fact, your better to throw a blade of grass to the wind!
Sit tight and expect September delivery

New model year use to start after summer factory shutdown, but for many years now new MY starts around June/July.
not this year it hasnt, if anything they are building MY22 cars into September this year because of the delays.
