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 contain suggestions: 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.

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.

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.

Folks - I've often said "Better questions get better answers" - and it's true. The more you describe the problem or issue you might be having - the better there is a chance that someone with helpful knowledge will reply to your message. I just read a post - made to a long-dormant thread to a post in the thread made 16 years ago that said "So where is the ECU ?" (it was a thread about a 987 ECU .) The problem even beginning to think about answering this question is - what car is being asked about? The Cayman and Boxster have different locations for the ECU as far as I know (because of the rear-hatch/folding-top differences) and I believe there are even differences between the 987.1 and 987.2. So how do we answer that question? However it's answered has a high possibility of being incorrect if the person answering it doesn't list ALL the possible locations, or they own exactly the same car (by chance since they won't know this from the question). So - I'll repeat, but this time loudly: Better questions get better answers! When asking tech questions - please give us all the info we'd need to formulate or even research an answer for you. This isn't Facebook (thank Dog!) the home of drop-and-run questions and answers. Try to post in the correct forum And for a tech question - Chat is not the correct forum! Each of our major model forums has subforums that are broken down by various topics. Chat is in most of them - and it means exactly that - chatting about that particular model. It's not the place to ask technical questions - one of the other subforums is typically a better place to post them. Please take time - before posting a technical question - to look over the model-forum structure and pick the subforum that most closely matches what you want to ask about or comment on. Thanks for your cooperation!
