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.

POST 1Original post

My guess is that 662 and 663 are left and right hand items, probably sports seat left and sports seat right. Just being lateral, from what I've seen of Porsche coding before. Code 996 means 'Wallet emptying device' by the way

POST 2Original post

Afraid not Porsche seats are generally 3XX numbers,my 02 996 sports seats are 375 left 376 right for example. I looked at my option codes and none of them tie up with your list...Somewhere I have a list of all 996 option codes Porsche technical dept sent me last year. I will try to come across it,not easy.... I know 408 = 18" technology whhels others are trickier..I need my list??? what year is 996??????? makes a difference. numbers are in sequence for example;;; 221 is a locking diff 224 is ABD (993 / early 996 version of psm) for 222 if your car has an lsd or brake differential this may give you a clue....point is it is definiyely not footwell lighting. >> Edited by clubsport on Tuesday 3rd June 20:42

According to the brochure I have, 662 is PCM, 663 is PCM handset, can't see the others though

If the car you are looking at is a UK model, you can contact Porsche HQ ask for their warranty department & if you give them the full chassis number (found on the underside of the bonnet or on the VIN) they will fax/mail you a full spec of the car & all it's options/codes. work's for me !!!

Any ideas what these option codes are :- 014 222 234 408 662 663 I'v tried the decoder at www.kindel.com/Porsche/options.asp but it doesn't list them. Cheers, Stephen
