993 Rear spoiler noise

My spoiler has been making that noise for the two and a half years since I've had the car and although I was aware of the repair that you guys have shown, I didn't trust myself to make a success of it.

Anyway, bearing (no pun intended) in mind that this is obviously a very common problem, how lucky was I to get a whole new unit on eBay this morning for £19.11.

...I just hope it works!

John, I saw that on ebay too, and was thinking of bidding :wink:
, but IIRC it said condition:used. Are you sure it's a new one?

Evil, er yeah (he says very embarrassedly)... 'used' ...I knew that ! I'm just getting a collection of 'em so I can connect them all up together and my car won't just sound like a little coffee machine, it'll be like a chuffin' mobile Starbucks!

Soooo...Six months later I've finally gotten around to doing this job! :oops:

It really is dead easy, providing you have the right tools.

The bearing inside the drive mechanism was just about rusted solid:

Now I don't have to put up with passengers asking what the grinding noise is everytime we come to a stop...
