Default found a warranty; worth it?

So I took the PTT in for alignment at Porsche and asked them for warranty options (car had CPO but ended some years back).
As you all remember I had nasty issues with the PASM and ended up replacing the compressor and front 2 airbags (one due to leak). Then a sensor broke. I don't know what's next.

Anyhow, the finance guy came back with this. Paper attached is what the warranty covers. It doesn't cover things not explicitly stated on there. I asked him well I dont see "PASM" on it, and this is a generic form for generic cars.. he said "it covers whats on there."

Car is a 2010 PTT with all possible options. 86,500 miles.

So
1: is PDK covered? (porsche tech said PDK is super reliable he's only seen like 2 failures in past few years at the dealer)
2: Can PASM be covered?
3: Is it worth $5400 one time payment, 3 years 36k miles.
4. Does anyone know any warranty companies?
5. Is the Porsche display touch screen monitor covered?

the premium coverage + supertech is covered, not premium plus.

I recently purchased a”Platinum “ warranty from Fidelity for my GTS. It has a small list of what it doesn’t cover. Everything else is covered!

Fidelity warranties are best in business and you can buy them from any dealer, so you can price check.

You definitely want an exclusionary warranty like Fidelity Platinum where everything is covered, except what's listed. The others are too hard to interpret unless you know every part in the car. Warranty pricing is dependent on mileage, I'll bet the Fidelity Platinum will be much more. I just paid $4100 for 3/36 on my $130k '13 C2S with 41k miles.
