Default 996 GT2/GT3/Turbo PCCB brochure/info req

Hi,

I would be grateful if anyone can advise where I can download the official Porsche Company PCCB brochure for the 996 cars.

I need to present it to the dealer who is looking into premature PCCB wear on the 996 GT and he advises that support documentation such as the PCCB brochure that talks about 150k miles PCCB lifespan etc etc PCCB life etc will be helpful.

If not the full brochure any official Porsche documenation that discussed the "wonders" of PCCB's will also be helpful.

Thanks in advance, John

I remember the PCCB brochure... Just about brakes. I don't have that but I do have this from the regular GT3 brochure.

thanks this is a good start!

I recall a brochure from 2002 that was all/solely about the PCCB's. This is the one that has the 150k/lifetime statement in it etc but it's very difficult to track this down.

If anyone has the specific 2002 PCCB one or another 911 996 GT3/GT2/Turbo brochure with these orig PCCB details/statements in it from Porsche marketing, then I'd be most grateful

I think you should take a look at the GT3 owner's manual.. It might have something in it. (I think I might have seen that before when I was reading it..)

Wouldn't the dealer have access to old marketing materials?

If not, what about PCNA?

in the GT2 manual it talks about them being good for the life of the car or 300,000 km.

i have read the GT2's manual in depth but sadly no reference to the 150k miles or lifetime of the car. Apparently the only place this info exists is in the official 2002 PCCB specific brochure

Here is some information that was in the official Product Information guide that the dealers had for the 2004 GT3.
