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.

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.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi All, Thanks for the input! Well my wife and I just bought a new to us 996. it is a 1999 C4, blue, grey interior, with the 2 year Porsche warrantee, 17k miles clean. We fly out to Ohio Friday night to pick it up and drive it back to Boston... My first question is: what is needed to install the trip computer on this car. There is a stalk involved and what else? Has anybody done this? TIA Ray Bahr

We have done a number of these locally here. Send me a private email and I'll send you the rather large (2MB) procedure with photos in PDF. Or, if that is too large for your email then I'll provide a place to download it. Porsche recently changed the stalk so we'll need to make sure we get you the right part number.

I ended up with half glossy and half matte caps.
