This is not a probability of success.

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.

7 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 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Can someone explain this phenomena and perhaps suggest a fix?

POST 2Original post

Is car still under warranty?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

No. I've asked a local dealer to look into it. But it doesn't sound hopeful.

POST 4Original post

The radio buttons on my '99 996 peeled also. Dealer replaced the radio under warranty.

POST 5Original post

mine area as well. I was thinking about trimming them with a very sharp razor blade, but I would like a dealer to replace it even more.

POST 6Original post

This happened on my 1999 996 coupe. The reason they are pealing is that humans have a form of acid on their finger tips. This acid actually desolves the paint on the NAV. My NAV on my 1999 996 went faulty and after I got it replaced, the buttons never pealed again. I don't know why, but I suppose the paint constituancy was different and possible resistant to peeling.

POST 7Original post

Mine have pealed as well. I think there is actually some kind of decal on the buttons that peals off. will prbably give me excuse to upgrade sound system.

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