Hello everyone - the odometer on my 993 (1/1/96) stopped working. My local Porsche Centre tells me it cannot be repaired and a replacement will cost in the region of £1,300.00.
I have read on other forums that the problem is often solved by replacing one or more of the plastic gears and it may be an option for me to explore this with other garages or mechanics. The Porsche Centre says that it is beyond repair.
Two things puzzle me though:
The price - does anyone know whether the price of a replacement odometer from Porsche is over £1K?
Also the Porsche Centre say that this price is on the basis that the factory receives my old one. If I want it back then I have to pay an additional sum. I don’t know how much but the principle seems odd?
Thanks for any info
