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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ok ok ok... under the pressure of my RL brethren, I've now conformed and removed all the so called "pumpkins" from my car. Now if I can just get all the gremlins to go away I'd be in Porsche paradise!

Waddayakiddinme? Sometime in the distant future when our cars are collectors items, you'll have the "ultra rare original yellow marker lights"... That'll have to be worth at least a few grand to the right concourse geek...

POST 10Original post

looks good, I like the all silver / black on the nose on the subject of spending senseless money, you could swap the crest for a silver / black one

^^ True that... BTW just walked through the garage and realized I am a Total Loser. Not only does my car have pumpkins, the wheel medallions are pointing randomly and the bumperetts are still flat black. All hope is lost!

POST 24Original post

I am in good company, then, as I have pumpkins, but also, the rare cassette deck and tape holders in the console. I'll sell the console to anyone who wants it for an ultra-cheap steal of $1200.
