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.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Suggestion
Always worth checking you have a strong enough concentration to stop it freezing as I think the standard Porsche fill is more of a cleaning fluid without something to stop if freezing.

If you do need parts rather than it being the best case of a disconnected hose, always worth speaking to your local OPC as in my experience I have been better getting some parts from them rather than other suppliers.

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

Hi folks , wondering if anyone can help ?? I’ve got a gen 2 996 Carrera c2 my2003 . I’ve just gone to fill up my washer bottle for the front windscreen and as I fill it up there is water coming out from under the car ?? I’m guessing it’s a split pipe or bottle , possibly as a result of the recent cold weather !!! Has anyone had a similar problem? Any ideas on a cure or if it’s an expensive job , any help grateful regards gary.

POST 2Original post

Water bottle and pump on ebay for £50; I seem to recall you can get to it by removing the inner wheel liner. I would suggest locating where the split is before ordering anything. I would expect if it is the hose that has split it may be a cheap fix. Always worth checking you have a strong enough concentration to stop it freezing as I think the standard Porsche fill is more of a cleaning fluid without something to stop if freezing. If you do need parts rather than it being the best case of a disconnected hose, always worth speaking to your local OPC as in my experience I have been better getting some parts from them rather than other suppliers. Regards Graeme
