Hello,
My car is 991 gt3 2014 model, the engine was replaced twice due to a recall i beileve it was pistons or rods i dont know exactly. The last replacement was done the last summer. The warranty ended in december. Couple of days ago i heard a ticking sound when i put my foot on the throtle, i asked a mechanic outside the dealership to see where is the sound coming from and he said its the engine, also i noticed the oil pressure is dropping to 0.7-0.8bar when car is idle, is there something that states there is a 10 year warranty on the engine? I beileve i read that somewhere but i need to make sure that there is a paper that states that so i can speak with the dealership. The issue is im the second owner and the previous owner didnt extend the warranty. I spoke with the service adviser and he denied the 10 year engine warranty and any current issue isnt covered under warranty.
thanks

As Jimmy mentioned, replaced engines came with an additional year of warranty - 5 years/100K miles. In addition, Porsche announced a 10 year/120K mile warranty on the .1 GT3 engine. Both of these begin on the in-service date of the vehicle so in either case you should have plenty of coverage. Don't know how this is being handled in other countries, but below is some info specific to the US. Hope its helpful.
