Default Porsche Recalls

My car is at the dealership right now being serviced for Porsche Recall WK07 (Oil Cooler hose, and Gasket). The man in charge of the service department said he would call me on Monday regarding any other recalls that Porsche has issued for the car.

My question is, what is the recall number for that little black rubber fuel hose that is known for cracking and spilling fuel over the headers? I need that number, as well as any other recall numbers that Porsche has issued for the 944/51 series cars. I'd like to get all this work done while it's still at the dealership.

I also remember there was a Porsche recall for the Air flow sensor bolts, which could come loose, and make their way to the turbo. The dealer is supposed to put loctite on those bolts, but I don't have the recall number.

So if ANY of you have any of the recall numbers, MAINLY that little fuel hose, PLEASE post them.

Thanks.

I wonder if there's anyone old enough at my local dealership to know the difference between a 924 and a 944...

"Hey, wasn't this engine a recall? Shouldn't i have the 2.5L Porsche in here, not the 2.0L Audi?"

The answer is yes. If you bring your car into the dealer for any open service campaigns, they should take care of them. They can check the VIN of your car to see if and when the service was done.
