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.

Suggestion

The work involved fitting the 4 stalk unit and running additional wiring to the dash, quite straight forward if you are practically minded.

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

I would like to have CC retrofitted to my car but am not sure if it is possible and any Porsche specialists that can do it - could anybody kindly let me know if it is possible and which Porsche specialists might be able to do the work, please - I can travel anywhere in England if needed but prefer Home Counties if possible. TIA

POST 2Original post

Here's the Pelican Parts article telling you how to do it: https://www.pelicanparts.com/techarticles/Porsche-996-997-Carrera/92-ELEC-Working_Cruise_Control/92-ELEC-Working_Cruise_Control.htm?srsltid=AfmBOooi6It76HUBFLzxJSQ08cbsoK7K9khdylUA6YjKp-tm9n_JpbGC I did it myself for the 986 Boxster.

POST 3Original post

My friends at Wrightune in Wallingford, Oxfordshire, offer this: https://wrightune.co.uk/Modern-Porsche-Service#Cruise-Control They will use all new parts, of course, so more expensive than DIY. Take that Pelican DIY with a pinch of salt for a 996 Turbo. It has several errors, and replies to questions that are completely wrong. If you really want to take the DIY route, drop me a PM with your email address.

Without knowing if you have done this yet, I did the work myself and then had an indy do the programming. The work involved fitting the 4 stalk unit and running additional wiring to the dash, quite straight forward if you are practically minded.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for your suggestion Kevin. I had the work carried out by Wrightune before Christmas and am very pleased with the outcome - the CC works great and Chris and his team were very helpful and flexible to complete the work to a high standard as well as carry out some other work that I needed. Thanks again for your time to let me know your suggestion, Kevin.
