I would expect that with only one RMS in 50K you are in clean air.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

do I need to worry about it going bad a second time? The original owner said it was done early on (don't recall the mileage) and I have 50k miles on the car now. Has anyone had to have their RMS fixed more than once? My car's warranty runs out in a year.

POST 2Original post

Mine have gone out every 5- 9k. I would expect that with only one RMS in 50K you are in clean air.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Clean air? I'm in Houston, there is no such thing! BTW... I've put almost 20k miles on the car since I've owned it.

POST 4Original post

Nick, Yeah, lots of people have had recurring RMS leaks...

POST 5Original post

I am on my 4th and needing a 5th. They make great frisbies

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

So how does Porsche handle this? For example - if I have a RMS leak after my warranty expires will they pick up the tab or am I SOL?!

POST 7Original post

Are any of the RMS club members covered under warrantee agreements through Porsche or any other? -Eli

POST 8Original post

Depends on the country, since its up to the countrie's importer (PCNA for the states for example, not Porsche AG). In Spain (Porsche Iberica) its not covered, they wash their hands after warranty expires. I have heard it being covered in US or Germany for example though, if you ask for it.

POST 9Original post

In the UK, they "may" offer you some help theough the good-will scheme if your car "has not been tracked" and it has a full service history "through the UK dealership network". But then again they may not..... I have yet to hear of any engines being replaced for out of warranty cars with RMS problems. They just keep wacking in RMS after RMS after RMS....until they find an excuse why they shouldn't replace it.
