Barncobob - I dropped mine on a Thursday and got it back Wednesday the following week. Seems parts shipments are unreliable during these covid times due to logistics snafus. My stealership said overnights are usually 2-3 days and grounds are a guess. Hope you get it soon. Gotta kick that Malibu rental to the curb.

I had a one off leak but rain washed it off and haven't seen it since. It happened just after 20k service O.o

There is apparently a weep hole which shows up like this, but a weep hole is for a leaking inner of two seals, no?

Dropped off my 2017 C2S with 26,500 miles a few weeks ago. Taken care of under CPO warranty. I cannot say enough great things about Porsche of Huntsville, Alabama!

When the car was built doesn't matter. We are seeing 992s have pump failures. There will be a fifth evolution of the pump design coming soon.

Am getting paranoid now My Carrera T was new in April 2018 (built in March 2018) so my UK Porsche warranty runs out in April (only 8 months to go). I’ve done over 28,600 miles and all seems ok so far, but if it’s going to fail, I’d like it to fail inside warranty!
