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

Weirdness on my '01 C4 cab. The paint is Guards Red. It is the original paint. I know that to be a fact even though I am the 2nd owner. The option sticker shows the paint code as L84R. This code is listed in other threads as Arena Red Metallic. Trying to figure this out. Could other posts here be incorrect? Does anyone have a link to a Porsche reference for these codes? I saw another post identical to this so I'm evidently not the only one in this situation...

POST 2Original post

Thati's incorrect I think. Don't know that the code is for Arena Red metallic but it looks like this. Here's mine. Maybe somebody goofed?

POST 3Original post

Take a closer look. That 'R' is probably an 'A' Guards Red: 80K through the '00 model year, THEN switched to code 84A. On my old '99 I noticed the code was 84A and it also looked like an R at first.

POST 4Original post

mdrobc1213, I was looking at your car and noticed you don't have a rear wiper. I have an ROW car (same colour as yours). Jason

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Eric, you're a freaking genius. Thanks, I can finally sleep tonight.

POST 6Original post

Arena Red is only available as a paint to match color. I think the color was discontinued with the 993, but could be ordered as a special option. My code says L84S, but I thought that was the engine code number.

POST 7Original post

Mdrobc1213, Nice color combo. I appreciate all things crimson & cream. Too bad you messed it up with that goofey license plate frame.

POST 8Original post

Arena Red is definitely 84S and 84R Guards Red is 84A and 80K Ask me how I know My 996 is arena red and you could only order it through the 2000MY.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
