Default Porsche recalls HELP!

Guys, our cars went through a lot of recalls. But how to know if my car did go for the update?

I found these two that caught my eye:

29604 JUL 96 Exhaust System - Sulfur Like Smell

29001 APR 90 Recall - Replacement of Fuel Hose/Rail

CMPG28601 JUN 86 Recall - Replacement of Fuel Return Line Hose

I have that sulfur smell, what was the fix?

Same goes for the hoses, how to know if they were done?

Wow, I've never seen that sulfur one before, I have it too..
Anyone know what the fix was for it?

However, you can call 1-800-PORSCHE, give them your VIN number, they will give you a list of recalls that have been issued, you make an appointment with your nearest dealer, and they fix it for free.

I am outside the USA, could the dealer here handle it?

The VIN is the chassis number? or the sticker on the rear of the car?

Where did you guys smell that sulfur?

Ok, just got off the phone with the dealer. Very nice German lady helped me out.

She said that i have to drop the car in and she would check the system for recalls and what was/needs to be done.

Will keep you guys updated.....
