Porsche extended warranty

They often quote high figures when they do warranty work. I was given massively inflated figures for rear lights and then PDK box.

And how many cars has this happened to? If we all worried about what could happen, we'd never come out from under our beds.... :)

Hopefully very few. But we do buy warranties, house and contents Insurance, life Insurance, critical illness Insurance and private medical Insurance. :thumb:

The really scared ones get into "prepping" - with guns, ammo, food and a nuclear shelter!
 
I extended with Porsche for two years, but have gone with a third party company once this ran out. I got 3 years for £1500 - also I don't have to stick to Porsche's ridiculous requirements to maintain the warranty. Eg genuine Porsche wipers etc.

So overall £500 a year rather than Porsche's £1000. Not complaining about the Porsche warranty had to use it a few times. However the third party warranty will allow me to get the work done by Porsche too so it should be just as good. ....fingers crosse

I've put PS4's all round on my C4s, no issue with OPC warranty as they are N rated.

Thats good to know as I loved the Michelin PS4S on previous cars. Have to say the PZeros are not as bad as I was expecting.

I love Michelins and I've had them or replaced others with them for years. However, my car came with a brand new set of Pirelli's and after reading the bashing that they've had on here - I think the same. They're really not that bad! My conclusion is that they probably get hard as they age and they are optimised for dry weather.
