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.

Hope these help - you 'may' need to replace bushes if they are badly worn, but greasing them may solve the problem ..

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.

Outcome without a verified action link
Problem resolved, faulty brake switch was the culprit.
My car has developed a "squeaking" noise when you press the brake pedal, even occurs when engine switched off. Been told that the linkages need oiled. OPC cost over £150.00
Does any one have any guidance notes/diagrams stating where the linkages are in order for a DIY attempt first.
Regards
Hi - these may be of assistance - they show where all the bush's are anyway. Suggest a Lithium based grease (Castrol LM or such) on the moving parts. Don't use WD40 ... Suggest using sparingly around the bellows / servo's if needed at all - noise is probably coming from the foot pedal side of things anyway.

I see you have the US version of the pdf PET. You can download the English version from:
https://techinfo.porsche.com/techinfo/VFModuleManager?Type=GenuineParts
Go to Great Britain/Workshop Information/Genuine Parts and choose which model to download.
You still have to pay if you want a section of the workshop manual, but the parts lists, techniks (service information) and workshop tools info have always been free.
Did you manage to sort out the sqeak ? If so, which moving part was the culpret? May proove useful to others that want to try this when it happens to them .. including myself !
Cheers,
Richard.
Problem resolved, faulty brake switch was the culprit. The switch has a spring in it, which had developed a squeak, when pressing and unpressing the brake pedal.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
