I have a small gap on my cabrio roof and believe it is the tension rope, I have checked the bottom connection which is fine but need help in finding the top connector, has anyone done this themselves?

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 I have a small gap on my cabrio roof and believe it is the tension rope, I have checked the bottom connection which is fine but need help in finding the top connector, has anyone done this themselves? Can you give me a step by step guide to dismantle the roof to find the front connection. Many thanks Gary

POST 2Original post

Gary!! It looks like a bit of a marathon in the workshop manual. If you would like some details, drop me an email.

POST 3Original post

hi, there is a article on the tension leads this month in one of the Porsche magazines, I think it is porscheworld but get to wh smith and I am sure you will find the correct magazine. one point worth noting in the article is that a special tool is required to fit the end of cable securing tabs (which apparently is very expensive). apart from that the repair looks straightforward and I think the leads are priced at around £50 each side from porsche. hope this helps. ray.

POST 4Original post

Hi; the mag is 911 & Porsche World - July issue. P.100... Good luck.
