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.

Hi, new owner of dark blue 1999 996 bought this week. 63k miles with Porsche service history. Had a 'light' fire in dashboard melting part of dash, heater controls, radio. Passenger airbags deployed on door and dash. Going to be a project for this coming year. Wil post pics later this week
Welcome. I also have a MY99 with 60k miles and still enjoy driving and owning it. Will be 6 years this Sept. since I purchased it. Hope you can bring it back to life. Pics of your project would be great to share. GL

Welcome! I, too, have a 99 996 in blue (Ocean Metallic).
Thanks for the welcome. Car arriving tomorrow, will get pics asap. CHSU74...thanks useful link. Researching at moment, have 996 manuals from cannell site. Parts list for 996 is not available on UK Porsche site? Is it available any where else?
Welcome to the board Steve, Not THE Snooker Steve Davies are you lol. Good luck with the Project.
Wow- so the pix in the avatar is a "light" fire? I'd hate to see what you call heavy damage......welcome and good luck with the project.
Avatar is of a 911 which was in the UK press last year. I believe owner was unhappy with service he was getting from dealer!
