These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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 am looking for a :- Porsche 911 2 Door Convertible 3.4 [CARRERA 4] 2001WINDOW REGULATOR/MECH ELECTRIC (FRONT DRIVER SIDE) I can find passenger side regulators, does anyone know where I can buy a driver's side window regulator, happy with second hand, re-conditioned or have to remove from a scrapped vehicle Thanks in advance

POST 2Original post

try porsch-apart (Simon Butterworth) . Passenger side ones are two-a-penny, driver's side are like rocking horse ****. Repair kits are available if it is the cable that has gone (check ebay) 996 and 986 (boxster) are the same. Cheers,

POST 3Original post

If you get a Boxer one remember to reposition the stop or I don't think it'll wind all the way down. A previous owner of my car replaced my passenger regulator and the window wont wind all the way down, and I think that's why...

POST 4Original post

I also made that schoolboy error when I changed line. its easily fixed once you get the door card off.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

thanks for this - I have found a regulator at PORSCH-APART as recommended it was £120 but such is life thanks again

POST 6Original post

Sounds a little steep for a used one. They are £133+VAT new from Porsche.
