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 performed work without a confirmed outcome: 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.

I basically kicked off a bit of stink and had a brand new PCM unit (Nav the lot!) fitted before leaving.

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 1Original post

Hi, Has anyone else had (and tried to fix) a problem in which the CD player often makes very loud clicking noises when the car is shut off or very hot. I brought it into the dealer and Porsche NA said this was normal and they won't be replacing the player... Any thoughts?

POST 2Original post

This happened to me within a few weeks of purchase. It is not normal. I took it it to the dealer and miraculously they 'fixed' it. However, one of the service guys let slip that in fact they had replicated the problem earlier... given that the purchase was literally a couple of weeks before I was not a happy chap. However, they didn't insult my intelligence by telling me its normal. I basically kicked off a bit of stink and had a brand new PCM unit (Nav the lot!) fitted before leaving. It actually takes them no more than 30mins to swap out for a new unit. I made it very clear that they would not see my business again unless I went away with a new unit. This is easier to do in the UK as dealers are never more than few hundred miles apart (I have three within a 200 mile radius so I can make good on my threats should I need to). Occasionally Porsche dealers post on here. I be interested to hear their view on this 'advice' you have been given by your dealer.
