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 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Leading evidence: 'cayenne' (1 discussions report identifying this cause; no attributable repair resolution). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'cayenne' (1 discussions; 1 report identifying it and 0 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Run diagnostics' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt.

Pleasant chat with the lady on the desk, cup of coffee whilst the guys out the back ran the diagnostics.
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.

I think I've just visited an OPC in an alternate reality.
I was having a problem with rough idling and took my car in this morning. Pleasant chat with the lady on the desk, cup of coffee whilst the guys out the back ran the diagnostics.
Result: faulty variocam thingy in bank 1 requiring a replacement with 6 hrs labour (£1400). Thankfully covered by the Porsche warranty. Letting them have my car next Wednesday morning. Will be given a brand new loner for the day.
Assuming that everything goes as planned, I'm very happy with my first trip to the OPC with my 996.
Only problem I can see is that the loner is a Boxster :wink:

No I dont think so, just diffrent problem, diffrent cover.
Dont think Cardiff OPC is bad at all, just my bad luck for type of faults.

Daz, I think you have been really unlucky. The MotherIL has had hers for years from new and hasn't built up many bills at all. Just tyres, servicing and a bit of warranty work. Maybe only £4K in total. But maybe that is the advantage of buying the car from new. You get to cherish the car from day 1, ensuring it is looked after perfectly and kept the way you want to.
Try not to lose the faith.

Jay - I use Lovett's at Bristol as well and so far (touch wood) they have been great. Mine is in for RMS next week (joy!) and they have always been very accomodating and helpful (apart from the fact that I always get a Cayenne as a loaner!!)

When they were giving me a choice of loaner, I thought they said Cayman. Turned out to be Cayenne
So Boxster it is then ...

Yep, I thought they said Cayman at first as well!!
Got the Cayenne S next week so at least it will have a little more go than the last boggo standard one I had.
