PCCB - 10,000 Miles
I need some help in trying to determine if the service/parts department at my local dealer (a) is trying to sell me a rear set of PCCB discs to make a quick profit and if not (b) what the proper part number is for the rear carbon rear discs? My car is a MY’07 with exactly 10,000 miles and two years old.
Supposedly there is less than 1mm left in the rear carbon discs and they need to be replaced immediately. The car has handled plenty spirited driving days
but I am a bit shocked that the discs need to be replaced so quickly.
If the answer is yes these need to be replaced, what is the proper part number. Is is the same part for a regular 997 with ceramics? I was under the impression that the Turbo had a different PCCB system. The replacement part I was shown at the parts department as a proper replacement had different sized Porsche decals as the one existing on the car right now. It did not look right to me (but I am no expert).
Thanks in advance for your help and advice on this matter… I need it before taking the plunge and spending big bucks to replace them (as suggested by the dealer).
