the guy is getting a replacement car - other manufacturers might well have insisted on the opportunity to repair the car - which i think they are entitled to do,under the Sale of Goods Act.

Suggestion

The difference would actually be between a 64 and a 15 but I reckon he'll easily be £1000 better off if he changes cars within 2 or 3 years.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

33 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I ordered GTS boxster in October collected it last Tuesday . PDK box fault on driving home then again first drive it is back at dealer where they are struggling to find the fault has anyone had similar issues ?

POST 2Original post

Sorry to hear that. Got a pdk box on my gts. Fingers crossed, 300 miles so far so good. Keep us posted about the issue.

POST 3Original post

1100 miles and perfect, allot better than the PDK in my old Cayman. Hopefully just a blip which will get sorted quickly.

POST 5Original post

Ditto here, 1100 miles and absolutely perfect, seems to be shifting more crisply as I add more miles. Hopefully a simple software glitch for your OPC to fix.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The OPC have been good taken the car back and ordered a replacement .

POST 11Original post

Wlracing said: The OPC have been good taken the car back and ordered a replacement . A replacement vehicle?.... if so what the ETA and what compensation have they offered?

POST 12Original post

Wlracing said: The OPC have been good taken the car back and ordered a replacement . Must be a very big problem -that's no software reboot!

POST 13Original post

Read on an other thread about a 991 Turbo same gear box issues and GB has to go back to factory as the OPC cannot look at them or open them . Not sure why but no mention off a new car in this instance

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Replacement due mid April .

Not sure why but no mention off a new car in this instance I know of a 991 Turbo September 14 4k miles off road for next few weeks waiting for a replacement gearbox! WTF is going on

POST 16Original post

So the issue is still unknown. :/ Any compensation?

RBT0 said: So the issue is still unknown. :/ Any compensation? Yes still do not know cause of fault . Not really compensation just end up with 15 reg.

POST 19Original post

Wlracing said: Yes still do not know cause of fault . Not really compensation just end up with 15 reg. Have they lent you a car in the meantime or are you on the bus?

POST 21Original post

Honestly, I would have pushed for a benefit/compensation. Like loan car at very low rates

POST 22Original post

RBT0 said: Honestly, I would have pushed for a benefit/compensation. Like loan car at very low rates He's got his car back and will end up with a 15 reg car , I cannot see the dealer needing to do better than that to be honest. He's losing out on the benefit of a new car for a few weeks , it's hardly the end of the world .

POST 25Original post

Not 100% fair to me. Time is precious, he is wasting how many weeks? Do not care about 15 reg, you can't put a price on it.

POST 26Original post

RBT0 said: Not 100% fair to me. Time is precious, he is wasting how many weeks? Do not care about 15 reg, you can't put a price on it. You cannot put a price on it , but you'd want compensating ? A contradiction if I've ever read one. Life's too short ,to worry about not having a new car for a few weeks man.

POST 27Original post

I agree. the guy is getting a replacement car - other manufacturers might well have insisted on the opportunity to repair the car - which i think they are entitled to do,under the Sale of Goods Act. A fair result I would say. Let's get away from this "compensation culture"

Cannot put a price on 15 reg vs 14 reg but can on a car per week. They should provide a Porsche loan car at discounted rate. Consider it as only car. How many week without it, how many GBP per week per car?

POST 33Original post

Same forum, 4 months ago, my question was the same and almost everybody agreed 64 or 15 in a couple of months doesn't make difference for resale.
