I would be grateful for members views given my recent experience with OPC and 981S undergoing service. The car is 2013, 44k mileage, full OPC service and warranty history with receipts and stamped service booklet
During a recent service the OPC highlighted a couple of issues - 1 the brake calliper bleed nipples could not be removed so required 3rd party extraction 2 the coil packs were "corroded" and needed to be replaced. Both of these were assessed as outside the scope of the extended warranty due to "outside influences". Total estimated cost approx £1500 on top of the service cost of £1900
Both of these components are not listed in the "exhaustive" list of wear and tear exclusions in the warranty. The words corrode or corroded are not in the warranty either
Following discussions with Porsche UK in Reading it appears that I am stuck with the OPC, as to move the car to an independent will invalidate the warranty. Porsche UK are acting as an intermediary in good faith, however the OPC are appalling in their attitude and imprecise descriptions of the faults
