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.

Hi - my C4 996 (Nov 1999) has developed an annoying rattle (no, not the wife) from somewhere close to the top of the front dash area. Anyone else had this and if so, how did you get rid? It's driving me bonkers!!! Cheers Barrie Migration info. Legacy thread was 49782

Hi I have the same car with the same problem there is an actuator behind the top left hand side of the dash in the heater matrix if you turn off the air con and set it to manual the noise stops, it’s not the fan it’s this actuator that is noisy and keeps moving. Dose any one know how to replace it as it looks a cow of a job. Darren Migration info. Legacy thread was 50309
