Joined the Cayenne Club

Hi All,

Just wanted to say hello.
I've finally joined the Cayenne Club and took delivery today of a lovely 2016 Cayenne 3.0 Diesel...loving it.

Can someone please help me and advise me where I can get OEM side rails/running boards from at a reasonable price?

Thanks in advance...
 
welcome aboard !

They are some decent independants around if you are avoiding main dealers and as always ebay and the like.
 
I don't mind using a good independant for this.
Can you recommend anyone in the Buckinghamshire area?
Also, I will be looking at taking out the Porsche Extended Warranty. After reading some other threads, would adding a non-Porsche part void the warranty?
 
Depends on your OPC - and as you will have seen on other threads, Porsche can refuse to honour (or apply) a warranty if any non standard parts are fitted.

Great choice of car btw, what colour, spec, did you buy?
 
Thanks Peter.

Spec that I know of so far is: Basalt Black with black leather, 21" Turbo alloys, privacy glass, PDLS, sports tail pipes.
I've tried asking Porsche Reading for an exact spec, but have to wait for the V5 to return before they give me the info.

With regards to OPC's, I've already notice the difference in prices...as much as £600 for 2 yrs warranty between 3 centres, and £500 on the running boards...just goes to show that shopping around helps...
 
Very similar to mine, except I have the two tone black/white interior and the panoramic roof.

Don't forget that as a member of the Club you'll get 10% off parts at the OPC, so that would pay for itself pretty quickly and you'll get loads more benefits too.

Depends on OPC .. Reading has never honoured the discount for me for over 20 years and numerous cars

You're right. I asked Reading and Guildford and neither said they accepted the forum discount.

Has anyone got the running boards on their Cayenne...Is it worth it?

They’re both owned by Porsche. My local OPC is part of the Dick Lovett group and are happy to give me the PCGB discount.

And no running boards ...
 
I have never had any issues with Swindon, Silverstone or Reading with the PCGB discount. Rang them all this week pricing up parts. Amazing the difference in prices between them. £60 More at one for parts on my 993.
Silverstone always ask for your membership number too!

I have the Panoramic roof on my 955 Turbo S. Think my 993 Targa set me on that path!

Silverstone for the tops mounts and Swindon for the Drop links
I always start with OPC prices before shopping anywhere else as some part they do suprise you!

Thanks, and any advice on the Porsche Extended Warranty?
Worth it or not?
Is there a better warranty provider out there?
 
Never had one even when I could have on my 993 15 years ago. Porsche do offer them again for 993's but the hoops to get one isn't worth it.

On yours don't know. There were some posts on I think Cam bolts shearing so maybe read that thread as can be costly. Think it was on diesel and recall in USA but not here yet

I have them on mine, useful for washing the roof and IMO do look good. My car was the DP car from Silverstone who had specc'd it with a full body kit inc the running boards, while I like the looks not sure I'd order them on a car i spec'd from new
