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.

Well I tend not to use the radio/CD/tape player because I'm sufficiently entranced by the orchestra placed where most owners put their dogs/shopping/umbrellas.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well I tend not to use the radio/CD/tape player because I'm sufficiently entranced by the orchestra placed where most owners put their dogs/shopping/umbrellas. However today I noticed that the right channel flipped in and out, sometime it was there, sometimes not. I was en route from A to B so next weekend will see a quick check that all the plugs in the back of the head unit and the amp thing under the front aren't misbehaving and otherwise do the simple, easy-to-get-at stuff. My car has "Sound System" and "CDR-22 CD Radio with CD Autochanger Preparation" but the last item is not fitted. I think I recall reading in one of magazines last year about the amp units failing (and possibly with a parasitic drain issue?) and maybe repeated in Porsche Post. The only problem is that I take my stack of mags to Classics and the Castle and leave them on a "help yourself" basis to all. So please what do we know about these units, is there a known age-related fault?
