Re: Transfer Box

Boring I know as it's been discussed to death on here. I had no idea it needed replacing. Visited OPC today & they confirmed it does infact need swapping. I experienced wheel spin on the drivers rear when turning right & pulling away. The car would grab & buck. I presumed it was due to ...

Re: Clack clack clack clack clack

1 in 3 is actually one hell of a bank (33% in current gradient parlance). Does this problem only occur on this bank or whenever you pull away while turning sharply? I notice this mostly on the bank but it is noticable at other times when turning in either direction. I assumed that cos this is the f...

Re: Clack clack clack clack clack

My 2017 SD has the same or similar issue, although not only when pulling away fast. Where i live is on a bit of a bank, say 1 in 3 (ish), i pull out ot the junction, turn right up the bank and can here what seems like a muffled rattle coming from the suspension on the right front wheel, same happens...

Re: After Market Warranty

It doesn't tell you (in the plan documents) what the acceptable labour rate is? They’ve just quoted me £1,963 fir a 3 year cover with £120 + Vat labour costs to OPC in Newcastle. OPC Newcastle actually charge £132 inclusive so i would be covered in terms of labour. Well, after ignoring them for a f...

Re: After Market Warranty

You can still get a Porsche warranty on the car so long as it passes the 111 point inspection. I did look around at companies and thought the Porsche one was similar price wise to other reputable insurers. Just renewed this morning, £1440 for 2 years (3 is £2160, no saving pa) I have separate break...

Re: New Tyre Time

I’ve only just taken delivery of my 2017 S (D) on saturday, drove it home from manchester area which is just over a 100 miles across the M62 and then the A1. Didn’t really notice too much on M62 but once on the A1 i experienced a bit more road noise. Now i know this is down to different road surfac...
