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.

Suggestion
check the wheel with the OPC, the wheel is possibly covered, however the wheel centre is definately not.
Leading evidence: 'Check wheel' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Check wheel' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
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.

Guys
another one I know I've seen before but can't remember the result :?
One of my wheel centres has got some corrosion showing on it. I'm sure someone mentioned that this is definately not covered under extended warranty. So I guess a new one is my best bet?
There is also a tiny bit of corrosion on the wheel (whitey blemish right next to the wheel centre - probably 2-3mm sq. so tiny but annoying... Do I have to get this professionally refurbed? Will the corrosion spread?
any help much appreciated
cheers

What centres have you got? I have a set of the silver with black shield and one 996 coloured centre. I recently changed to a set of 997 coloured ones.

996 coloured - ask a stupid question what on earth is the difference between 996 and 997 centres! I thought Porsche were always critised for not changing things enough

997 coloured ones are like the 996 black ones - no circular indent and a bigger shield.
Buy me a pint and you can have the 996 centre, though you'll have to glue the shield back in as it fell off in my lounge!!!!! I've even got a friend/colleague who lives in Bedford so you can pick it up quite easily.

Wouldn't think the wheel is covered ask the GT3RS boys & their red or blue wheels :wink:
Yet another congenital defect.
