Hi all just a quick question to you all.......
Had the AOS go on my car about 1000 miles ago - it happened at high revs, about 6500rpm, and boom a big plume of smoke out the back of the car and subsequently smoke on startup. Disassembly of the intake showed the tell tale signs of oil in the intake etc etc ....... So AOS was replaced with a new one from Porsche by my local indy.
Fast forward to yesterday - high revs accelerating hard and you guessed it Boom - big plume of smoke out the back and its now smoking on startup again with signs of oil in the intake again :sad:
In between the two events its done about 1000 miles, 600 of those in 2 motorway journeys, 200 miles in 30minute A road journeys and the the other 200 local stuff. It has behaved faultlessly between these two events.
Anyone else ever had experience of a dodgy AOS from Porsche or heard of something like it? The main man at my Indy is away until next week on holiday so its going to stay in the garage at home until then.
Is there a warranty on porsche parts?
