I also have to replace the power steering rack if anyone knows where to get a good recon (new is about $4k, I've seen recon's for 25% of that).

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 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all, does anyone have any suggestions where I can get a seat switch for the left passenger seat of an 06 997S? Mine will tilt back but not come back up!!! Also are they easy to DIY? Porsche Brisbane is quoting $1,300 for the part alone I also have to replace the power steering rack if anyone knows where to get a good recon (new is about $4k, I've seen recon's for 25% of that). Thanks
