I'm getting a bit of a coolant leak from one of the hoses.
Called the dealer and got a "I'm not sure its covered" Bring it in and we can check it out. CPO only covers a limited number of parts.

Getting the sense I wasted my $$$ on the CPO. Will keep you posted.

Anyone had any experiences out there?

 

I'm almost at the two year point and have not used the cpo yet. So far I have done tires, battery, coolant tank. I'm gonna bring it for small oil leak in front of engine and clutch squeek, hopefully this will all be covered by the cpo.

 

Had a cam cover leak repaired, and Air-Oil Separator replaced. The AOS is probably a bitch DIY. Intake manifold apparently must be removed. 3 hrs labor, plus fresh oil fill.

The CPO is a limited warranty, but it will cover the major repairs.

 

RMS, and they changed the clutch while they were in there.

 

Where can I start...new engine, cooling fans, coolant tank, exhaust leak, convertible top latch, 02 sensors, MAF sensors, thermostat, theres more, but thats off the top of my head....

 

Many times. Replaced the MAF, a $1,000 job for $0. New digital air con display for $0. I told them not to bother on the last bit, and they did it anyway...I think something else, just cannot remember.

 

Ignition switch and flasher switch - zero charge.

 

Ditto

 

Fixed under CPO: airbag warning light (driver's seat wiring harness) and new gauge cluster (rear spoiler malfunction traced to gauge cluster). The service advisor has access to the list of specific covered and not covered items, and there's a general list of coverage on Porsche's website. My dealer charges a $50 deductable per CPO covered service visit.

 

Are you in the USA? If so thats BS....there is no deductable....your dealer is pocketing the $$....PLUS getting paid from Porsche. I would either find another dealer as the warranty is valid anywhere, or tell them you won't pay the BS deductable.

Quote from the Posche website:
"In case of a problem, the comprehensive warranty covers 100 % of the costs for material and labor. Customers of the Porsche Approved Certified Pre-owned Program do not pay an excess."

Your dealer is getting over on you.

 

Newport -- Thanks. I was concerned about the "deductable". I'm in NV, and the closest other dealer is over 100 miles away. I'll give a call the Porsche "customer commitment".

 

RMS and the intermediate shaft bolts/seal, $0 under CPO.

I leased the car new from Porsche, then bought it at the end of the lease CPO. AFAIK, and as stated by the dealership, the CPO warranty covers exactly the same as the original. Unscrupulous dealers may tell you otherwise, but that's how it should be. If he charges you, ask him why, then take it up with the Porsche Regional Rep.

 

Wow - I must be lucky or something.
I have a 99 c2 and have never had a problem.
Clean the MAF every once in a while and change the oil as required.
I don't think I have ever taken my car to the dealer for repairs since I got it.
Pretty much an every day driver and low maintenance car

 

My '02 is a CPO. I have not needed to take it in for anything other than routine maint.

 

Last year, I had a bearing issue in the pulley assembly and the delear replaced the assembly $0
Currently, car is having the cats replaced due to failure (rattle) $0
