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.

I would check no corrosion has caused this on the chassis.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Whilst jacking up car for suspension rebuild, I noticed the rear jacking points have suffered some damage and corrosion, the nearside has virtually squashed flat and has cracked the metal, has anyone had this issue and resolved it? It doesnt look like it can be repaired, I wondered if they could be removed and either a new part welded in or remove them completely and go for the sill type jack? any thoughts / ideas welcome

POST 2Original post

In normal operation they should be jacked with pads to prevent damage. When taken to tyre shops or 'non-porsche' garages then it's not uncommon for pads not being used and hence damage occurs. The protective underseal gets damaged and then corrosion sets in. Mine had damage to the air-con pipes running along the drivers side. If the jack point has collapsed, then I guess it will take some work to get this repaired. I would check no corrosion has caused this on the chassis. I would then seal any corrosion before winter sets in. I purchased some pads from a well known bidding site, but any Porsche specialist should sell them.
