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.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

I have a failed and disconnected rear spoiler on my 2002 996 turbo I know I can buy a raising kit from america but can anyone help me with information on how I can just disconnect the pipes if necessary and raise it and lock in position this must be an easy fix!

POST 2Original post

Unfortunately it's not that simple because there are powerful springs in the rams that return the spoiler to the down position.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Is it not possible to remove the rams and dismantle, take out the springs and put some packing in to raise the spoiler?

It goes up and down for a reason not just looks.
