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

Hi guys, I need a new air-con compressor, where and how much? Thanks in advance. J

POST 2Original post

Porsche price is about £700, but John Ware saw them for £295 from Porsch-Apart (New). Eurocarparts do them, but they are about £500ish. http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/fb.asp?m=271402

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Richard, Thank you for your reply. I will give Porsche-Apart a ring tomorrow morning. One other option the air-con guy offered me was to have mine reconditioned for about £140. Is this option recommended? Thanks again ~J

POST 4Original post

At £140, and if they give a decent period of warranty, I personally would go for it - but then again I'm a cheapskate.

POST 5Original post

Porsch-Apart are still advertising 996 air-con pumps for £295 in this month's PP. I didn't need one in the end and I'd seriously consider Richard's cheap-skate option.[ ]

POST 6Original post

A regas should not cost more than £80. There are plenty of aircon specialists who might do it for even less than that.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Richard, I picked up my 996 earlier today, everything seems to be fine so far and the air con is nice and quiet and very cold. Will test over the weekend and the next few weeks. There is a 2 year warranty supplied, although I was quoted £140, the job ended up costing £325+tax for the refurb and the labour charge of £95+tax. Will keep this updated. J.
