Evening all,
Dropped my GTS in for the 6 year minor today and warranty renewal. Got the 111 report and the following noted;
Front wipers smearing screen - £64
Both heat shields corroded and require replacing - £568
6 exhaust flange nuts corroded - £318
NS steering rack boot heavily stained reqs steering rack replacing - £1584
Also got all discs and pads noted as red, rear disc inners have corroded and are breaking up (I have heard the dreaded noise from this). Front pads are at 50% but the discs lipped so saying they won't take new pads.
Really not sure what to do. I've been thinking of changing to either a 991.1 or a Macan (8 month old means I've done 500 miles since September '16). On top of the service and warranty, the above is well over £5k, but I love my 997 and feel as though it's worth holding onto. But can't help feeling that £300 for some nuts and £1,500 for a steering rack is excessive even for an OPC. I'm in the north west so sure an Indy would be a lot more competitive. Or just part-ex it as is but would be sad to see it go. Thoughts?
