My first post on this forum. Am living in London and bringing my 2009 model 997.2 Carrera S Cabriolet with PDK to Sydney at end of this year. Given the much higher temps in Sydney should I be looking at fitting the 3rd radiator (read somewhere that from 2010 that was standard) plus the LTT? Welcome advice as I suspect that it's better to fit here before I export my car

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.

I wouldn't think you would need a centre mounted radiator unless your planning on doing a few track days during the height of summer. Definitely do whatever mods you want before sending back over as you should save quite a few dollars.
The kit here in AU is around $1100 AUD + Fitting. You can get it in the US for around $800 USD (ECS Tuning, Suncoast) + Freight. It's not really necessary IMO, unless you plan on tracking it regularly.
