These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

The car will need belt check and PDK fluid change next year too, so see if they will include those in the price.

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.

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

  • PistonHeads: 1 discussions

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

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

POST 1Original post

Find one that has been serviced correctly would be my advice. Always going to be problematic especially when the time comes to sell

POST 2Original post

Call and double check with someone else. If it's had the service then find out what's been done. Was it major, did it inlcude spark plugs? The car will need belt check and PDK fluid change next year too, so see if they will include those in the price. Also check they have replaced the tyres as the 111 point check says the tyres need to be <5 years old. Once validating all of this try to call Reading and have them check the history on their database. Otherwise, move on.

POST 3Original post

Totally agree with the above. Speak to someone who can give you an accurate answer regarding the service. The car should have had a major done in 2024 and another minor is due next year plus a belt check. PDK oil change isn't due until year 12. A major (4 Year) consists of: 1 x seal ring 1 x TOPUP/BAG 1 x AIR FILTER AIR SUCTION 1 x WINDOW CLEANER OUTER 1 x Odour and allergen filter 1 x CAP 1 x Oil filter insert 8 x Engine Oil 0W-40 C40 X4 1L 1 x 1 Litre Brake fluid 6 x Spark plug Cost for the above is ~£1800.

POST 4Original post

Avoid and get one with full service history. Peace of mind and easy to resell (unless you tend to keep your cars 5+ years)

POST 5Original post

I bought my cayman from Porsche Guildford and one of the services was about 16 months late but had only done a few k miles since services. I was told they can still sell it as approved Porsche with a 2 year warranty as the service schedule has been brought up to date. Similar happened to a friends Macan and was told the same.
