I have a 2011 C2S 997.2. At 16000 miles in 2014 the Porsche dealership identified a slight leak from the steering rack by way of some oil showing on the bellows. Under the extended warrantee a new rack was installed. Number 1!
Then to my surprise at 32000 miles in 2018 the same dealership identified the same problem and a second new replacement was fitted. The dealership said this was unusual (infact to obtain the second replacement took about 6 weeks), but as it was under extended warrantee there was not cost, and they seemed unconcerned.
It bothers me that a car such as Porsche should be on its 3rd steering rack after 32000 miles. Am I just unlucky, or is there an underlying reason that anyone can think of?
