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.

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

So after a spirited drive in the SW Florida sun my 996 would't close the cabriolet top. Watching in the mirror the shroud opened and the top came up about 10%, faltered a few times then completely stopped working. I'll try to add a photo later if that helps but it just quit with the shroud open. All feedback and suggestions welcome! /X3

POST 3Original post

Check if the side flaps are opening....sometimes they stick in my car....I slight tap, and they open

POST 4Original post

Ours would go part way up or down, had to add just a small amount of fluid. Cabriolet pump uses power steering fluid CHF 11S, and was pleasantly surprised it was available at our local O'Reilly auto parts. Top worked perfectly since then.

Can you share or show where the CHF 11S fluid is added? TYVM! /X3
