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

The door lock pivot cable spring has broken on the drivers side door. Porsche has apparently redesigned the cable attachment because the original cable has a C shaped attachment point which doesn't fit properly in the new door lock device. I am trying to find a video or tutorial to help me replace the old cable with the new style cable. I know this door lock pivot failure is common, but I haven't found any good DIY instruction on replacing the cable. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!
