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

I have just become the new custodian of a fantastic 2002(52) 996 C2 Manual in Lapis Blue. We started our relationship today with a 300 mile drive home and I must say I was mightily impressed how happy it was switching between tootling along in the miriad of average speed cameras to quick blasts(ooooft) of smile inducing Tarmac munching! It's just had a good service plus IMS bearing, RMS, clutch and rear brakes with some other maintenence bits n bobs. It needs a bit of paintwork tidying and the alloys refurbished but on the whole I'm a very happy owner.

POST 3Original post

Lapis blue does looks very nice in the sun, Sounds like you have all the concerns covered. Have fun & enjoy

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

POST 6Original post

Best colour eva! But I confess I am biased......!

POST 7Original post

Quite a purchase and "future proofed" with the IMS and other work done too. 39k seems like you've got a good'un

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

First upgrade tonight, LED 997.2 Dectane rear lights. Pioneer DEH-X8500DAB going in at the weekend if I can figure out how the A Piller trim comes off. And a good wash by looks of it!

POST 9Original post

Why do you want to take the A Pillar trim off? If memory serves me, take out the top seat belt bolt, and remove the B Pillar trim. Then unclip the A Pillar/top trim, working from the seat belt end forward. You have to give it a good tug, and it makes horrible noises as the metal clips release. Be brave.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Richard, Yeh I think I just read a post by yourself on the subject. Reason is to fit and wire for the DAB screen mounted aerial and hands free microphone.

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

New Pioneer DAB stereo fitted. Only took just over an hour and that included being brave hauling off the A Pillar trim but worth it for the neatness of it all. Will probably take me longer to figure out how it all works! Only a couple of scars for my efforts.

POST 12Original post

Well done Alan. One or two pictures would be nice.

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Here you go, not the best picture of the DAB aerial but very discreet and you don't notice it after a bit. I will relocate the mic to the drivers side A pillar, just ran out of time lastnight. P.S. Car all clean again.
