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.

Has anybody come across the issue of a snapped bolt that retains the water pump on a 2004 996 Carrera C2. Leaving about 15mm sticking out of the block. I’m having difficulty removing the stud.modes anybody know of an expert stud removal man?
