Re: Chirping noise on GTS

Calham04, which OPC did you go to who said it was the air con unit? The US forum states it’s a problem with a fuel pump on the right bank of the engine. As you state I have the noise as well without the AC on. I’ve been chasing this issue down with Porsche Leeds since September after picking my maca...

Re: Chirping noise on GTS

I have a chirping / warbling noise but mines at idle. Is it the same as my noise?

Re: Thinking of Selling Your Porsche ?

Blimey - really sorry to hear that Iain. Good luck with your aim for a replacement car - any indications yet as to whether that might be a possibility? At this moment Caster the OPC has gone to ground. Which either means one if two things 1, they are looking to sort the issue or offer a replacement...
