CARFAX: #W902 Voluntary Service Action - TURBOCHARGER VTG

Hey guys,

I just ran a carfax on a 2007 997TT and everything looked clean except for:

Sorry to sound so stupid but can anyone inform me what this is? How severe is it? Also, since it is listed on the Carfax, does that mean the issue was resolved?

Thanks for the help guys!

Thanks for the quick replies.

Can anyone who has had this done give a little more information. Is this something that would prevent you from purchasing? Also, is this something Porsche would fully cover?

Oddly, this 997TT doesn't mention anything about an existing warranty. Raul, shoot me a PM

At least it looks like a pretty quick and easy fix. Shouldn't be too serious but still worth getting done, obviously.
