I found one for sale on eBay once with the part number, but unfortunately didn't save the picture. Almost wish I'd bought it now

Re: Query: retrofit tow bar (tow hitch)
Not sure where you got with this one, but if you fit a none Porsche Tow bar you will definitely invalidate your warranty. No if's or buts If you have an existing warranty it remains valid if you fit an aftermarket tow bar. The only issue you will have is if a warranty claim directly relates to an i...

Re: Query: retrofit tow bar (tow hitch)
Don’t blame you. I wish there was an alternative to the macan tbh. Porsche’s attitude really sucks. It sure does. In a way I was lucky in that I found this out just at the 3 year point, however it cost me £220 for the 111 point check to find it out :shock: and then we had lockdown so I had time to ...

Re: Query: retrofit tow bar (tow hitch)
Haven’t really gotten anywhere sadly! I just think £2k is way too much. Totally agree which is why I did what I did and fitted a normal mechanical one, top quality job by a very experienced tow bar fitting company, counted for nothing I am afraid. What is more annoying is that Porsche used to offer...

Re: Query: retrofit tow bar (tow hitch)
Not sure where you got with this one, but if you fit a none Porsche Tow bar you will definately invalidate your warranty. No if's or buts. I refused to pay the £ 2K for an electric one as it was well over the top for my requirements, so had proffessionally fitted a £500 Westfalia removable bar same ...

Re: Refused Extended Warranty, non Porsche part !!
hence fitting a simple manually fitted removable one. so just remove it, get the warranty and put it back on? Could do, but not going to bother, not that worried about it, more amazed to be honest that they get away with this sort of stuff. Besides if I put it back on, I'm sure it would be the Tow ...

Re: Refused Extended Warranty, non Porsche part !!
Nick, on a lighter note, would you like to share details of the other cars in your stable? :) Cheers, Good idea. Possibly a very interesting thread! Porsche should welcome modified cars with open arms. Not so much tow bars, but I’m sure they could learn a thing or two from a high millage Litchfield...

Re: Refused Extended Warranty, non Porsche part !!
An MG, McLaren (or two) and Aston and your are worried about the warranty on a posh VW, probably the most reliable of the lot. Take the tow bar off, stick it on the SL and Job done ! ;) ;) :mrgreen: Hahaha, actually the most reliable of the lot have been the two McLaren's had the red 650 Spider for...
