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.

A fellow RL'er Rod (Gagueman69) noticed that the bearing I had for the project car ('99 996 C2) looked a lot like the one he replaced on one of his '98 A4 1.8T Quatro.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

A fellow RL'er Rod (Gagueman69) noticed that the bearing I had for the project car ('99 996 C2) looked a lot like the one he replaced on one of his '98 A4 1.8T Quatro. Last night, he brought over the old one to see if they fit and sure enough, they are the same part. Disregard the wear pattern on the two bearings as they are both old. The face of the release bearings on the A4 is a tiny bit smaller but that shouldn't effect the operation. The best part is that these only cost $30 as opposed to $150 for the 996 ones.
