Hi all, I'm a former 993 owner looking to get into an '02 or '03 996. Given the cost of maintenance on these greatest of machines, as well as the notorious RMS issue on the 996's, I had a question: Does anyone know whether Porsche honors the balance of factory warranties after private party or auction sales? Or can you only realize the balance of factory warranties through Porsche dealership sales? Any info would be appreciated...Thanks!

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.
