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.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, I have decided to go for a 981 Cayman S (PDK). Therefore wanted to know if there are any known issues like with the 987, that I need to look out for things like the coolant cross over pipes - leaking, the AOS filter, power steering pipe leaking, the buffeting noise from the rear hatch lid or have these all been ironed out in the 981 or do they have their own set of issues I need to look out for in my search. Thanks
