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.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi - I'm new to this forum having only had my '02 911 4S for 4 months. But have been browsing quietly without posting until now! Just driven my car down to Brighton and have discovered that the passenger door under the speaker is soaking wet as if water is being retained within the door. This has obviously blown the speaker as that is now not working! Fortunately the car is under an OPC warranty so I'm hoping all is covered. However thought I'd just try and find out if this is a common problem. Any feedback welcome - thx

POST 2Original post

Hi, Had the same problem with my 1998 C2. It was the door waterproof membrane, which was replaced very easily, it cost me about £38 for the membrane from what I can remember. Surprised you have it in such a new car ? My passenger side went first, and the drivers door followed recently !! Hope that helps. Mark

POST 3Original post

Yep, symptumatic of the door membrane failure. Instructions on door panel removal http://www.ecoutez.net/boxster/door-panel-removal/ You might find a couple of the screws hideden in slightly different locations since the 996 door handle is slightly different
