Read evidence and context

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.

There are mysteries that bug me like the seemingly random two, one or no horn beeps when I use the remote locking.

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.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 2Original post

I could never find one for my 1998. I went into my local Porsche dealer and they gave me one. No cost, just handed it to me and said "Have a nice day." I almost fell over.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I haven't yet come across a dealer in Australia who is so generous. I am prepared to pay for one, however. There are mysteries that bug me like the seemingly random two, one or no horn beeps when I use the remote locking. I have heard there are sensors (door closure, handbrake, gear engaged etc.) that effect it. Is that right? Also how do you get the CD changer to work? I expected to see the option on the screen over a button when in CD play mode - not so. I'm sure someone wil answer these questions (I'd be grateful), but I'd still like to have an Owner's Handbook.
