I guess it depends on a number of factors; relationship, number of cars bought, previous service dept spend......but yes, mine did.tigertrout wrote: ↑Wed Nov 07, 2018 2:13 pm I have spoken to 2 Porsche dealers who wouldn’t waver the fee for the 111 check while the car was in for service.

While waiting though, this gorgeous blue sporttourismo keeps on winking at me... . Feel like i’m in temptation island here
That is a very nice bit of kit!
Porsche’s shiny, plate glass showrooms are SUCH tempting places to spend time!

We just bought an extended warranty on the Cayman as its 3 years old and we've decided its a keeper. We had the cost of the 111 check waived but that was probably because of the relationship we've built up with our local OPC and the fact that I'd just bought my 3rd Macan from them. But it is possible so persevere.Paul wrote: ↑Wed Nov 07, 2018 3:25 pmI guess it depends on a number of factors; relationship, number of cars bought, previous service dept spend......but yes, mine did.tigertrout wrote: ↑Wed Nov 07, 2018 2:13 pm I have spoken to 2 Porsche dealers who wouldn’t waver the fee for the 111 check while the car was in for service.

I took the extended warranty early on so no 111 check needed.
It is fully transferable to a new owner if you decide to sell
It does not cover rattles so make sure you get anything like that resolved before the initial 3 years are up.
Apart from that it covers for everything else. Hope I don’t have to use it but peace of mind.

Our Macan S is 2 years old in January 2019 and while booking it in for its first 2-year service I asked about the 111 point check and extending the warranty. It was suggested the maximum period Porsche will offer a warranty (except the 3 year period of the original manufacturer warranty) is 2 years.
As the car will be 2 years old and still have 1 year’s manufacturing warranty remaining, we would only be able to add 1 year’s and not 2 year’s extended warranty.
Have others been advised the same?
I seemed to remember others talking about taking a 2 year extended warranty at the time of their 2-year service, or was that only cars that previously were only given a 2-year's manufacturing warranty rather than the current 3 years, (I believe introduced in 2016).

No. See below from my warranty booklet (dated 06/2017)

Thank you Guy,
The Centre was unable to offer any documentation until the warranty was purchased, making it very difficult to challenge.
Ultimately if they maintain their position I shall enquire at another Centre for all our servicing, although I would have preferred to maintain the excellent relationship we developed, with the sales staff, whilst purchasing the car.

I wouldn't worry too much about switching OPC - I bought mine from Porsche Mayfair and now use Wolverhampton whose service department have been very impressive.Little Urchin wrote: ↑Thu Nov 08, 2018 4:42 pm Thank you Guy,

When I checked at Tewkesbury, they told me that there would be no 111 point fee as long as I renewed before the 2 year mark, i.e. when there was just over 1 year left on the warranty. I could renew for 1 or 2 years at that point. This isn't quite what the website says, but they were clear that they wouldn't charge me as long as it was before 2 years.
