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

Well, it happened late this afternoon. Key is stuck in the ignition. All the classic signs, according to my searches - A/C doesn't work with car turned over. I saw all the threads on how to fix it - I just don't know when I might find the 4-5 hours to do it. My question - does any one know if this is covered under the CPO warranty? *Mind you the CPO warranty I have is the one prior to 8/08 - car was purchased 3/08. For purchases after 8/08 they changed it to cover a lot more items? I'm sure I'll find out when I call the dealer tomorrow, but at least I'll know what I'm up against Thanks!

POST 2Original post

Bought my cpo car 3-08. Ignition switch replaced under porsche cpo 7-08. Cost would have been $550 per dealer.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

That's just what I was looking to hear. I wasn't looking forward to paying $550 or doing 4-5 hours of work. Thanks for the info.

POST 4Original post

let us know how it works out. hopefully your dealer will play nice. good luck!

POST 5Original post

And if it's not covered, DIY doesn't take 4-5 hrs. It took me about 35mins, just to change the switch alone. I've heard others doing it in 15mins.

POST 6Original post

just change the switch under the dash.... $30, takes 15min tops. I replaced mine at the track since I knew it was gonna die on me one day. All you need is a small electronics screw driver... 1 screw.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks - I guess the 4 hours was for the full ignition switch and lock replacement. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index...howtopic=16077
