These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

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

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

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

I have a friend here in Arizona who is considering buying a 2003 Carrerra S with 17k miles. He is going to have a PPI done but he asked me if I could check around and find out if there are any model-specific problems/issues with these cars that he should look for or just be aware of. Any advice would be appreciated.

POST 2Original post

Assuming you mean Carrera 4S. None really, other than RMS, but thats all 996's and up.

POST 3Original post
