2013 C2S, CPO car w/ approx 25k miles on it... so far it seems most of the common ones have affected me except the PADM engine mounts I've read all about:
- rear engine lid struts
- one of horns has gone out
- brake master cylinder replaced
- sunroof seal is adrift and loose
- 2nd time replacing washer fluid hose
- rear wiper motor to window seal had perished, replaced (common on 997 and 991 I'm told)
- headlights replaced for cracking clear lenses
- both rear taillights replaced for broken mounting points
- headliner sagging
- side seat airbags replaced for cosmetic deterioration reasons

991.2. 24,000 miles 1 owner. waterpump failed on the drive home from dealer day one, overheated and got towed back. First track day with it i completed the first session pretty mild. Started the car for the 2nd session and it had eaten 2 qts of oil and produced a huge white cloud of smoke. Ended up replacing oil lines for TSB. Didnt fix it, then replaced passanger turbo and it has been ok since.

Squeaking / creaking sound come from under the dashboard, sounds like it's the steering column or leather or something near the footwell but turns out it's the gas tank. More info here: https://rennlist.com/forums/991/9558...fo-anyone.html
