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.

Question on amber headlights. I just bought a 1999 Carrera 4 and it has the clear lights. (Granted, they could be later replacements) So the question still is… when did Porsche stop putting on the amber headlights on the 996? My build date is 1/99 Added my options sticker if anyone wants to decipher the codes.

Congrats on the '99 Carrera 4. Porsche transitioned to clear headlights on the 996 starting in 1999, though some early models (like yours with a 1/99 build date) could still have the amber corner lenses, especially if they were produced in the first few months of production.
