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.

Hi, I have a 2004 Turbo cabriolet (with rear glass window). I have noticed that in the corners at the rear of the roof inside near the rear window where the corners (just above the velcroed side flaps that cover the hinge/mechanism) there are there are gaps in the lining that you can see. I have attached pics. Is this normal is is my lining coming appart? I had a look in a 997 and this isn't the case. Cheers.
..and here is other corner.
Looks like one of the tensioner cables has come adrift or broken. I am sure that Richard will have the correct answer for you soon enough though. If not why not email him.
Ok thanks. Would be good if I could see what someone elses looks like for comparison. Can lining be repaired or does it need a new roof (I hope not as roof is in good condition)? Any suggestions to where I could take it to get it fixed (besides dealer) would be great? Thanks.
Sorry, I don't know much about cabriolet tops I'm afraid. I've got all the instructions, but unless you are a serious DIYer it looks a bit daunting to me. I would suggest taking it to a trimmer to see what they can do. The headlining can be replaced, but a Porsche one is about £400! The Boxster boys have a good thread going about replacement rear windows, so check it out for details of a trimmer local to you: http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/tm.asp?m=245268
