If I do need repair before 50 hrs, I obviously need to pay for it myself, my concern is if a year down the road that I have some sort of issue and it get denied from an event a long time ago.

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.

Hi Guys, Searched the forums for some time. Did not find any info for 997.2 . I recently purchased CPO 997.2 GTS4, did a mis shift (4th to 1st at around 45mph - I though I was going into 3rd) and now have over revs (140 range 5 and 20 in range 4). I calculated the time and seems like 0.3secs in range 5. Can runs fine. Taking to local performance shop (who said car is likely fine) for oil analysis on wednesday and am not driving it for now. If the oil checks out OK and car is fine, I would like to reset of the over revs in the future to maintain warrany coverage. I have heard softronic can change these, called them and Scott was not available and spoke with a lady there who said they were unable to do it for the DFI. Does anybody know of any other options? Is there a way to take it to porsche and pay for some sort of inspections to ensure future warranty coverage? Does the 50 hour limit since the event ensure warranty coverage? If I do need repair before 50 hrs, I obviously need to pay for it myself, my concern is if a year down the road that I have some sort of issue and it get denied from an event a long time ago. I appreciate the support! Thanks, HD

I think simply erasing the over-revs would potentially subject you to fraud claims if you ever re-sold the car and the subsequent buyer had no way to know that these over-revs occurred. That being said, if Porsche or some other entity will certify that the engine is still good after the over-revs then you could clear them and provide a copy of that certification to a subsequent buyer. As Softronic mentioned, clearing over-revs on DFI cars is much harder to do because of the encryption Porsche implemented with the DFI cars going forward, I'm not sure any 3rd party has the ability to clear these now. Usually over revs in the range 4 and 5 are cause for Porsche to disclaim warranty coverage, so I'd ask Porsche if they will re-certify in some way.

POST 3Original post

The overrevs report has operating hours which would probably get reset as well. It would make it even more suspicious if they don't agree. Like if you had 20,000 miles with 100 operating hours. It's like resetting the odometer....which I don't think is legal. You did the mis-shift and you should own it. It may never even come up if as you said the engine is running fine. I've never hear of the "50 hour limit"
