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.

Where actually is this? Not the vin but the build plate. I'm googling and no answer comes up on various Porsche forums 🤷 A photo of where it is located would be very much appreciated Some research has suggested in the boot on the right hand front chassis rail? Is the right hand front referring to the drivers side or passenger side?

Hey @911virgin , Build plate is located on RHS of frunk. That is based on sitting in the car. Ie. Drivers side. So, when standing at front of car looking back into frunk, it would be on your left. However to see it, you will need to pull back frunk carpet liner. Remove left corner plastic retaining clip and pull back carpet to reveal. It is a metal plate riveted to the body (as opposed to some newer cars having a sticker). Hth.
Thanks luzzo 👍 Will give it a go tomorrow I was close to finding it today.....just didn't pull back carpet enough The plastic bits aren't easy to get back all aligned and flush
They stopped the under bonnet build sticker with 986/996 IIRC. There should also be a copy in the front of your service book from memory.
All good people Unscrewed the carpet screw, peeled back the carpet and found the two plates 👍
