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

When I move my Boxster seat all the way back (and then wish for more legroom), the seatback rubs on the rollbar. The squeaking drives me nuts. 12" of Velco ($1.99/ft at Aco Hardware) fixed it. Clean and dry the inside of the roll bar to aid adhesion. Throw away the stiff Velcro and cut the fuzzy Velcro into 2" pieces to help it hold the curvature better. You may have to reposition the Velcro to find the best spot. Also, I was worried the plastic mesh screens would fly away so I zip tied the bottom edge to the roll bar. Nearly invisible. Headdead

POST 2Original post

i suffered a minor rear accident (stopped before a zebra crossing) and i started to notice a seat squeak that only disappears when i loose some leg room. they should make the rollbar bigger but the new one (987) seems to bee smaller to... liked the idea. ------------- visitazores
