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.

Assuming it's a brand spanking new unit from Porsche? then definitely yes, it wouldn't put me off one bit, some would see it as a real positive.

Sounds a reasonable proposition to me. Hopefully they fitted a new clutch etc when they had the "lump" out. Regards Big Bob
