Warranty Costs?

Getting the car back on wedneday. :)

Needed a few bits, Main Oil Seal was leaking slightly, cam cover had a bit of a leak, and something on the steering rack had a bit of play?

Intially i was given a big bill, in the region of about 2-3k to get it all sorted. Steve, the advisor at OPC East London was very helpful, the car had only done 2000miles since being serviced, when at the period it had a warranty, they reported nothing wrong? So the main oil seal, and the cam cover leak was all sorted free of charge, and i got a discount to have the steering rack thing sorted and 4 wheel alignment done at circa £400. Result!

Now i can drive it with confidence again as the warranty is live! :D

I'd be interested to know if they actually did anything with the RMS and cam covers when they "sorted" them :wink:

It's amazing how many cars apparently need a new RMS until it is discovered that the car is out of warranty and the customer doesn't want to pay for it...

My car was reported as needing a new RMS just 3 months after it was changed under warranty... I didn't have it done (warranty had lapsed) and it was still going strong when I sold it 50,000 miles later with no oil loss whatsoever.

the PPI cost the same at all OPC's. cheapest i've found is Reading at £200

sorry, that doesn't make any sense?
 
I've just received my warranty notification and have to book my car in for its 111 point inspection.

The cost is £1,350 and includes 1 years Porsche Assistance and the fee for the inspection, possibly because it is already under warranty.
 
If the car is presently under warranty its £1350
If it has no warranty its £1450

for 2 years its £2495
0r £2695 if not under warranty

you have to have an inspection at the end of year 1 Free of charge ( or included depending on how cynical you are) with the 2 year warranty

all prices include the 111 point check inspection
